The same card that the JLP played on the people of Jamaica for four years was played on them during the campaign. The people would dress up in green and travel from meetings to meetings ringing bells, drinking and eating what the laborites provided but in the end they were a no show when it was time to vote. The JLP should know that the good Bible says do unto others as you would have them do unto you. And the old proverb says same knife weh stick goat stick sheep. The JLP have been playing 3 card on the people of Jamaica but now that they have been played I wonder how they feel.

Today is the much anticipated General Election in Jamaica. The approximately two-month old Jamaica Labor Party (JLP) leader and Prime Minister is going up against People’s National Party (PNP) leader Portia Simpson. Once again this is an election that no one can confidently predict the outcome. There are polls showing the PNP with a slight lead and other polls showing the JLP with a slight lead also. Both parties are, as expected, claiming that they will win easily. There is a large number of newcomers vying for offices also and this may give rise to many surprises in the race. Whatever happens tomorrow Jamaica will have a new leader with a 5-year mandate who is going to face a country with very high unemployment, still too high crime rate, a dissatisfied population and many other problems. This coming 2012 Jamaica will also celebrate its 50th anniversary from British rule. Interesting times ahead.

National Geographic magazine has listed Ackee as #2 on Countries National Dishes. Hamburgers, U.S. is #1
Although the origins of the hamburger are disputed, there is no argument over the popularity of this classic dish. Toppings and accompaniments vary from region to region, but for an original version visit Louis’ Lunch in New Haven, Connecticut, which has been serving hamburgers since 1900 and claims to be the oldest hamburger restaurant in the U.S.
Planning: Louis’ Lunch is open most days for lunch and some days until the early hours of the morning. Click Here for National Geographic

The following is one of the many Jamaica Gleaner photos showing up where orange clad Jamaicans from the PNP party hugging another green clad member of the JLP party. If this is for real then finally Jamaica is coming of age…

The stage is set tonight for the ‘Big Debate’ between the ruling JLP Finance Minister Audley Shaw and opposition spokesman on Finance Dr. Peter Phillips. Much fireworks anticipated, especially regarding IMF deals, JDIP, Jobs, Jobs, Jobs, JEEP and much more. Even more so than the upcoming debate between JLP leader Andrew Holness and PNP leader Portia Simpson, this finance debate will give Jamaicans a good understanding of where the country is leading to after the election. It is not clear whether debates have any effect on voters but this debate will reinforce whatever thoughts voters already have about the two parties.

This is an account of a 67 year old woman who was robbed $3000 during a flight from London to Jamaica. It seemed like she was drugged by some scam artists and her money taken from her bags. When are criminals going to stop prey on the older generation. See the Jamaica Gleaner for more on this story
