Now i sat the other day wondering....if things will ever get any better for this little country of ours.... its now approaching the Independence weekend, and we are 49 years old as a nation...amidst much strife and violence over the past years, however, our little island has been referred to unofficially as "Jamaica, land of weed and manslaughter". Quite a shame, i must admit, but i have to admit...things arent looking bright here... in terms of the quality of our goods.. i would like to proffer "Jamaica, land of sub-standard goods." Everything here is lacking in some way or the other. That became apparent to me one morning when my grandmother beckonned to me ugently while we were making breakfast one morning. "close the coffee bokkle quick before the flavour fly out!!!!" she said to me.
Dear God...it is serious.. the things today have no essence.... I think she is homesick for some real country coffee... the ones in the bottle arent as hot as they try to make it seem.... and i can quote many other examples of our downward spiral into purchasing substandard goods and being unable to do anything about it....
** Cran wata? It should be changed to wata-cran…or the drink with 95% water and 5% cran. nothing to "WOW" about there...
