just walked to the corner store and back and i'm drenched,it's hot today, 4of the young guys up here were walking their pitbulls and rotties and telling each other to keep their dogs away from their dogs,i'd like to ask if any of them would come and dig holes for my plants but i no longer think thats a good idea because my dogs would get used to them being in the yard.
i'm watching "happy,texas" right now really funny movie,i really like the guy pretending to be gay and teaching the little girls how to be beauty pageant queens,lol he teaches them the way i'd probably do it,lol this little girl beats up on a little boy and the guy gives her pointers and then offers her a smoke,truly funny
trw, are you growing any veggies and fruits right now. I am going to plant tons of green beans when I get back.
I am trying to adopt a boarder collie rescue for JJ. I know I should adopt on island but I really want a boarder collie for my high energy boy. He needs a companion. I think pregnant daughter is going to adopt another island dog before she leaves and she is trying to get us to adopt one as well.
just papayas right now tam,no patience for anything else just yet
i just got this pm from a person that i never would have thought could be like this,and now this person has become in my eyes another heroHi Troy,
If I were 35 years younger - I might get involved in organizing this fight - but I'm not.
Here is what I think would be most effective:
Target all the police sub-stations once a week every Sunday in September, probably at either 10 or 11 am for ONE HOUR.
People would go to the sub-station nearest their home. The first week you'd aim for 25-50 people at each substation. What are there 6? Each person would carry an 8 1/2" x 11" photo of one of the people murdered this year. Everyone would be well dressed and ABSOLUTELY SILENT, no signs, no speeches, no disruption of police activity. The group would gather outside the station, not blocking traffic or the sidewalk. The group would stand sliently in front of the station for an hour. At the end of the hour everyone would dispurse(sp).
Next week, same thing - for 4 weeks.
Media would have to be notified and someone would have to gather together the photos and makie them available, probably via the internet.
It will embarass the police and DeJongh without being a disaster for the Tourism industry. And it will encourage discourse, not yelling and screaming, IMO. There is also an element of suspense - will they be back next week?
If you like the idea, it's yours to do with what you want.

trw, Sad thing is obivously somebody is still falling for that bs, since they are still sending them.
Must be more Sahara dust in the air. Both husband and I woke up with our eyes "gooped" together!
Not only should you stand out side the police stations, but also in front of govt house. Have pictures of all 120 UNSOLVED deaths & light a candle for each one............do this EVERY DAY! Start a march down King past the govt house............find out where the check points are & hold pictures of our fallen....signs stating "check points DON'T solve murders"......remind the police & the govt officials they work for the people!
And finally, get registered to vote in the VI & remove the expensive dead weight from office. TRW, sure you don't wanna run???
lol island only if uttica comes over and does my "clown" makeup for me,but i've got an idea now,i need to get pics of the 120 and take it from there or at least their names and when they died,time to put on a hardy boy hat
ok i called the librarian at the daily news today and she's going to research the unsolved murder thing for me and come up with a list,i'll talk to one of the lawyers at lunch tomorrow to see if i need to do a non profit thing,if so i want betty,a.davis and a couple of others involved representing all the islands,betty you get to do the books if there are any,then i'll place ads in the community sections of both papers for names dates and if possible pictures,once i have that i'll go to a better copy and talk to pam,oh and i almost had a scoop for you tonight but i couldn't find a computer downtown at 5:30 anywhere,one of my friends sits on the wapa board and he came in a 530 just off the seaplane from STT that they went with alpine energy so it's going to be waste to energy supplimented with pet coke from hess and they're building it on the south shore he figures it will take about 4 years and then they'll phase out the wapa plant in town,oh i'm going to call this project "the usvi names project"
well tomorrow morning after i get a haircut,i'm starting to look like a hippie,i go see the office manager at one of the law firms downtown to learn about non profits,she ran one with francis but since his death she does it by herself. the boys from zebos were in this am and we were talking about the wapa thing and i could not answer a few of their questions,nor could either of the papers and wapa guy from last night just happened to walk in and spent about 20 minutes answering all of our questions,and he only charged head zebo guy to strips of bacon,not bad for a lawyer, stx is getting the smaller of the units because wapa is in talks with another company that will burn cleaner and provide 10 additional megawatts for a total of 26 which is about half of our peak.
USVI Names Project RR#1 BOX 6938 Kingshill,VI 00851
the young guy at salvadors cut my hair today,old and really old are off island,this guy is great,he's quick and does a good job without alot of talking and he doesn't wander off like salvador does.lol
since i've read all the new releases at the library i was wandering the aisles looking for something to read and now i wish i hadn't i came across a book by james herbert called "others" and it's a horrifying book thats really creeping me out,the first sentence is "my redemption began in hell" and well it just goes on from there,i'm almost done with it but this one is invading my dreams at night,it's that bad.
See if you can find "Heat" by Bill Buford.
will do trade,just met a great couple from a one stoplight town by detroit at work,they're out at carambola got married there 11years ago,they want to move here,both bluecollar,she's a bookkeeper he's driver heavy machinery,they were asking about real estate and a realtor was in so i handed them off to her.lol that woman can sniff out a lead from a mile away.
lol...I like the realtor comment. Its true on this island we do not have many realtors that are not sharks. It can be very hard to build up a career here and survive on the limited amount of houses and condos we have for sale. Although quite a few of the limited listings are very very expensive. 😉
trw
"The Dark Side", by jane mayer, is an EXCELLENT read...and is non-fiction.
finished the book and gave it to asha to read,i had called her earlier at work to tell her about it so i figured she'd be in for dinner,lol she started reading it right away not a word from her except her food order she read about 50 pages and left saying only i'll get this back to you in a couple days,thefirst 30 pages and she was already getting a little creeped out,i gotta find more books by this guy after i finish the rushdie book i'm on now
has anyone besides me seen a movie called "the cook,the thief,his wife and her lover,when it came out it was rated x and then later nc17 for subject matter and violence and no it's not porno
Yep I remember when that came out. I was afraid to watch it at first because I heard about the "twist'? And it was pretty dark for its time, not sure if I would still think so if I saw it again.
oh that flick is harrowing. i watched it when i was younger, but some scenes (i won't spoil) were hard for me to sit through and still occasionally haunt me. argh!
TRW - I saw the cook, the thief, wife, lover when it came out. Helen Mirren was in it and I loved it. Not many of my friends did though. It;s really an artsy film.
just read a debut novel called "child 44" takes place in stalins russia another really creepy book, i knew it was a bad time for russians but really had no idea it was that bad,the book is by tom rob smith i got it from asha, and she had to put down "others" for a day and refused to talk about it,hey i told her it was disturbing and she wanted to read it,lol
