OK....OK........mi had some time....and mi finally read dat number #5 of da top discussions and #6 Lurker
boy dat was a long thread mon......mi head hurting after all dat reading.......think mi need a appleton and coke....
dat was fun...you boardies certainly gave mi some good laughs .......and mi thank you all for your kindness...
#5) Posting in patois, dialect or whatever by Bill
mi will say dat when mi see a controversional or what mi think might be a negative thread, mi usually avoid it........
mi didn't even lurk dat thread... dat it's a very, very old subject on da board....and mi been on since '97
also during dat thread mi was emailed by many boardies and tipped off to what was going on.....and mi thank you...
mi didn't fret though...mi didn't mind dat conversation.....
not mi place to make waves on da board......it's an open forum and thank goodness for freedom of speech
and mi glad dat Bill understood the answer to his question as him said was:
Jamaicans aren't offended by non-Jamaicans attempting to write patois, and are more likely to be amused by it.
and mi will say this in closing......
if you think mi friends, boardies and mi ex Jamaican wife(wi lived here and down der) are amused or confused by mi writing.....
you should hear mi try to speak "Patios".....dem laugh at mi so hard......
and even some of you have heard mi live on RealNegril.com down der......LMAO.....
it's all good......maybe mi get it right dis new year....lol
Happy New Year all mi friends!
Cool Runnings,
Marko

There was a cap on the number of search results dating back to when we had server troubles earlier this year. I just removed the cap and the search should work a lot better now.

Hey Marko - thanks for being here on this board all year. You definitely made an impact, seeing how you inspired the #5 and #6 posts respectively, on the two charts! Plus, you made it into Toon's snowball fight!

Marko, you rock. I really hope I get to meet you one day.
Jenny, sounds like a great idea. If we plan ahead of time we may be able to pull it off. Maybe we can even get Garzan and Alexandra (with family of course)to make the trip. I would LOVE to get my hands on that likkle Bella. I imagine that Brenjalee and Yamangirl would be up for it and we may be able to get that Dreadneck guy too.
(((((Lola))))) you don't miss a beat. |

Roots, sounds good! I'll do a post as soon as Don gets the total go-ahead on this SoCal photo shoot. Don't Toonvox & Bullit & Dreadneck live there too? And, yes, let's get Alexandra, Andre, Bella, Garzan & others I've forgotten who live out there to come. We'll plan it!

Fantastic, guys! I have my fingers crossed that this photo shoot will be a go so that we can come out there! I believe that the shoot itself will be on Sunday, March 16th. I'll "lean" on Don to try to find out about this. I haven't been in LA for YEARS, last time, I believe, was the summer of 1993 right before I moved back to Arkansas. I almost took a job in a suburb of LA, it was right on the coast. I really miss those ocean waves & warm breezes. . .

I found the thread, it has 56 posts in it and drew 1,498 views.
It was a good thread, but maybe would do better in a "Favorite threads of 2007" discussion. Maybe it's time to set up a poll with a write-in vote capability. I'll have to check...

Yes, and you're right about BrenJahLee & Yamangurl, they do live there. It was a year ago this coming week, just after New Year's, when my mom & I went with them to Rockland's Bird Sanctuary & rafting on the Martha Brae River. Here's a great little guy that we also saw at Rockland's!!:
