JaP, I would think a computer shop would be able to help. Otherwise, how about taking a picture of it using a digital camera? Would that work?

I was never bragging when talking about Roc it was just at the time I THOUGHT I was coming to a group of ladies who had been where I been or knew about what I didn’t know and after showing you the facts could tell me what went wrong or what I missed because at the time I couldn’t see it. If it came off as bragging that wasn’t my intentions as I have stated before.


I think most of us here have been there done that. What i found difficult to stomach i guess was you saying how you 'pleaded' the single mother card so he'd rent a car.
I guess this is how I feel, if you were dating someone who worked say in DC and he worked in McDonald's, would you expect him to pay for a rental car every time you went to visit?
It came off as if you were saying 'Ha ha, I didn't give him SH!T, in fact HE had to come out of pocket for ME', meanwhile I'm thinking how that is almost like you were boasting about playing HIM....Now, we know there are predatory men in Jamaica, looking to use women, but to be honest, the way you came across it seemed like YOU were trying to be the user.
Again, most of your comments in jest or not, seemed based on this 'omg Jamaican men are sexxyyyyy' almost like 'omg I want a poodle they are sooo cute!'.

I think that is probably the problem most have with you on the board.

Exactly Bunz - typical, can't handle a confrontation without bringing race into it and the racist truth comes out - I am very comfortable in my own skin, DaDa - my friends, and who I date, are of all colors, shapes, and sizes - So before you look even more ignorant, make sure you know what you are speaking on -

And you wouldn't even want to hear the comments made about how you look so you can stop drooling over my man - cause he would never be with you - we had a nice laugh over that -

90% of your posts here are totally inappropriate and you are so thick you can't even see it = Even your posts about bragging about how you used to go to JA and use Roc and make him pay for everything - just shows you have NO CLUE about how hard he must have had to struggle - No wonder he disappeared on you -

You use this forum as a dating site or a way to get tips on how to pick up men of different cultures - you don't get what is behind this thread AT ALL - and prove it over and over and over - Why don't you deal with your own marriage and figure it out and get a divorce before you try moving on and fukking up another man's life? Or sorry, I forgot - your only prospect is locked up in jail -



See what I mean there you again trying to tell me about me. This is what pisses me off. U and DJ got a good laugh at what my size? That is the only thing you two could laugh at because I keep trying to tell you I’m beautiful and you must have agreed that is why you showed DJ the pics to make sure I came no where near him. What you insecurities got the best of you?? And of course DJ makes fun of others around you why wouldn’t he ,he has to keep you happy you are his paycheck.

I never bragged about Roc carrying the weight I was just putting it out there that our relationship couldn’t have been based on finances because I supported none of them. It wasn’t bragging it was stating the facts. Hell to be truthful I’m still wondering what DJ sees in you because Sus NEWS FLASH your not CUTE at all. Wait I do know money. Oops dumb me I answered my own question. U might have lost weight but your still unattractive and you look old as hell. Ur what 50??

U have been to every island imaginable and have phocked plenty of guys and have had countless relationships but your still single. It sounds like a man has ran off a time or two or three on you too. Is anyone ever going to be brave enough to marry you? Don’t you think its time to get married? Oops I forgot you have tried but you just can’t get a man to walk down the isle. I hope you hurry up and have kids before your ovaries turn to dust. U live with your mom and you dog sit on the weekends. Sounds like a really exciting life to be jealous of.

Things are over with my husband but he won’t sign the papers so I have to wait the two years. Wow I guess I’m lucky someone does want me..I do have other prospects for your information I’m just not interested in them and be careful talking about the one that is in jail he doesn’t deserve to be in there but some times that is the price you pay for being black.

Wow I’m speechless I see I interest you, it’s a honor to see how you are trying to learn everything about me.

I have to admit that when I read your comments about Roc paying for a rental car, it sounded to me like you were bragging about how little you spent. Like you were trying to say it had to have been love purely because you contributed nothing.

I think the comment about Sus only hanging with people like yourself (which I took as meaning she only mixes with black people) was tasteless and inappropriate. Considering pretty much since we could all be accused of hanging with and dating Jamaicans which you most certainly are not.
I think you say a lot in jest, but your common theme is 'I'm a single woman lusting for a fine brother' which may be amusing at first but gets tired after a while. It stinks of desperation. Again, I think you mean it as a joke, but it does get old.
While most of your comments are designed to show your great appreciation of Jamaican men, you still manage to buy into stereotypes of 'typical' Jamaican men. And yes, I do find some stuff you say inappropriate like making appreciative comments about Sus's man.
While saying ONCE 'He's nice!' is fine, repeated comments in my eyes are just not appropriate.

I don' think you are deliberately malicious or out of line most of the time, but I think you really need to take the time to think about what you say before you say it.

PSA: If you use a laptop, PLEASE take 5-10 minutes & setup a hard drive password. That way, if anyone steals your laptop, they'd have to go through quite some trouble to even get on the harddrive. To do so, when your computer is first coming up, you press F2 (or F10 or whatever your computer says) to get to the BIOS. Then find the security tab where you can set a hard drive password. It can PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION if you have data on the laptop.

One of the computers I gave away in Jamaica had a hard drive password installed. It was stolen out of a van, but at least I know the thieves likely won't ever get to the information on it. They'd have to get a new hard drive & installed an operating system on it to even use the laptop.

My parents were robbed this week & my father's laptop was stolen. He did not have a hard drive password on it, so anyone can get to his data. sad.gif He bought a new laptop today, and I will setup the hard drive password for him when I visit my parents in 2 weeks.

Thank you Nat!! I went ahead and set that up on mine!

Gripe of the day...

I advertise on Craigslist, so I advertised as my two hour portrait session being a total of $160.
So yesterday I get a woman asking about the price of a THREE hour school event.
I was being nice and quoted her the SAME price as the portrait session ( which is a LOT easier than all the work involved in an event) and she emails back to say her budget won't stretch. #######????????????????

Some people I tell you!

Dammit, I need a break.....

Can someone please hire me to do their wedding photos in Jamaica??

Hell, even a renewal of vows......


One of my co-workers (the pathological liar) decided to mess with me on FB.

She commented that I never get my hair done, I'm smelly and my husband is suspect rofl.gif

Funniest thing is, me and another co-worker have a running joke where she tells me my husband is gay and I tell her she's a swinger, so this broad decided to run with that.
Came in this morning and apologized to all my co-workers for being smelly (they were like HUH???) and for not getting my hair done.
So she runs crying to the dentist and says I'm talking about her. Told her that since the post on FB is not about me, we BOTH must be paranoid.

Told her to stay out of my way and I'll stay out of hers.

Not into the kiddie stuff, she's 21 and the drama is NON STOP......

Since she's been here (3 months)

Her boyfriend got shot
His neighbour got shot and his mom went to CVS and bought needle and thread and stitched him up
Her brother had a fight with her father and hit her father so hard that his kidneys failed
She met a football player who sent her $1000 and a diamond ring
etc etc etc

YEP
is hubby had to convince me to try the mexican restaurant down the rd
we always argue over food because he LOVES italian and as far as i am concerned that is just ketchup and macaroni
but i will admit there are SOME italian dishes i will try

rofl.gif It's not ketchup Bunz! It's tomato sauce & basil & oregano & garlic & onion! Mmmmm!


tomato sauce, basil, oregano, chives, cloves, parsley, most times lemon, italian seasoning, squash,mushrooms, mustard, dill, eggplant, sprouts, sweet yams, greens, are totally alien to Jamaican cooking. Has taken me MANY years to start eating some of these.
I can understand why Steven didn'tlike the curry shrimp even though they were good, it's nosluron you, it's just they weren't Jamaican style...It's hard to adjuest to new styles ans tastes...Many Jamaicans cook EXACTLY the same way their grandmother and mother did, they never EVER experiment or add or subtract ingredients, it's just not culturally acceptable. I think it's a wway of preserving Jamaican culture in that people today cook rice and peas EXACTLY the same as 100 year ago, and cook the same dishes.
Ie, you only eat certain dishes on Sunday. It would NEVER be acceptable for instance to cook soup for dinner on Sunday, or liver and bananas, or curry chicken.

A lot of Jamaicans can be very unadventurous when it comes to food. Simple is definitely good, and if you can buy some browning, even better.
Food like baked chicken, fried chicken, pepper steak Jamaican style with green peppers etc, chicken wings, maybe turkey wings. If he eats pork, roast pork with browning on it. Everything should be brown. He may like grilled salmon, mashed potatoes, no lemon on the salmon. Basic simple salads with stripsof chicken....Mac and cheese...steamed vegetables, carrots, peas, cabbage etc. and of course whatever Jamaican dishes you can cook....
No extra spices, just the basics as Jamaicans do it, salt, black pepper, all purpose seasoning, thyme, pimento seeds, spring onions,tomatoes, garlic, hot pepper.

There are TOO MANY darn fish in the pool!!


hmmm.. i never done it, but im thinking?? what if u didn't know it was their man when u met him.. (NOT THIS SITUTAION) but what if??? do u stop the relationship??


If your not in to deep yes but I'm thinking if they are a close friend wouldn't you know that was their man.

lets say u come to the dfw to visit me and meet a man.. at the airport, the club.. and whatever reason u don't mention it at first.. u don't think nothing of it, cuz heck guys always tryna holla..
u talking to him, hitting it off so then u tell me bout this dude u met while visiting me that u kinda liking now.. and i'm like."WHAT?? thats my ex from 5 yrs ago girl"..
u would put the brakes on it? i guess like ya'll said.. its other fish in the sea, just throw that one back .. THANK God ive never been in that situation tho..

Well if that happened, I would ask my friend what her feelings were on the matter and take it from there. Now, if we were in a relationship and THEN found out, hmmm......

These are my thoughts


It seems to be agreed that Renee and Kelly were friends, enough to stay with Kelly and come down here.
It seems to be agree that Renee met Craig through Kelly.
Renee knows that Craig is or was married to Kelly.

Let's say Kelly was a racist btch who was highly abusive to Craig who was indeed a loving caring man who had been deeply wronged.
Let's say Renee found out that Kelly was the 'bad' one and Craig was the victim in all of this.
And for argument's sake, let's say Renee found out Kelly was a two faced hypocrite etc etc and not a real friend.

Why put the pic on FB? I looked and looked at it, and it doesn't seem to be two good friends hanging out. (I could be WRONG!)

Why not tell your friend or ex friend that BTW, I am now dating your soon to be ex?


Now, if I have jumped to any conclusions, I apologize to Renee from the bottom of my heart.
For all I know, they could be friends and nothing going on.

Ok, we have Kelly's word that Craig is a piece of work etc etc.

Let's say that's ALL a lie and he is in fact a decent man, loving etc etc.

What I cannot stomach is HOW they met. (I know I am jumping to conclusions here, maybe Renee is going to say they are just close friend etc)

As Sunny will tell you, I met her and Ray soon after he came here and I was jobless at the time, and Ray is a REALLY lovely guy. So I asked her if she minded me coming and pickning him up etc which she was 100% cool with.
And I sure as hell didn't have any ulterior motives.
But, I didn't end up hanging out with him because deep down I just felt it was somehow disrespectful to be hanging round with SOMEONE ELSE'S husband.



There's a big difference here. I TRUST MY HUSBAND.... Friends do stuff like this all the time. You have to put your trust in your husband and not trust in your friend.

I agree...But the point I guess I am trying to make is that there are some things that should NEVER be done. You don't date a friend's ex man, or a co-worker's ex man or a relative's ex man etc etc......

I figure since I am one of the few ppl on the other side of the visa process (recipient as opposed to petitioner) i'd share some of the feelings going through my head these past couple weeks

up until the time i got my approval i had tunnel vision on the initial part of the process and i was kind of agonizing over the approval. i just wanted to get that part over with. i kept hearing ppl talk about how fast it goes after that but it didn't register with me until we actually got the approval notice. even though its still taking a while, when i think about it, i'm gonna be sending off packages sooner than i think

now all of a sudden i am feeling anxiety and i am not sure about what. it is as if, i'm unsure of what i was so anxious for all along. i don't know how to explain it but i can identify with all your stories about your men having a hard time adjusting because in a sense, i am already having a hard time adjusting. it's very conflicting because i miss and so badly want to be with my hubby but it's hitting me that this is gonna be a drastic change. for one, i don't know how i'm gonna manage without a job for a while. i'm kinda envious of some of you ladies whose men get their visas today and by next week they're gone. i have bills that will continue to be incurred even after i leave and i'm pretty much responsible for them. hubby is in a transition mode right now too. there are so many things taking place and i'm not quite sure how they will end up.

i'm trying to put more faith in God and leave it to Him to work out. sometimes i think as long as i am with hubby i'll be ok but then other times i am soooo scared of the uncertain.

i say all of this to say, seriously i know sometimes dealing with your spouses can be a pain in the a$$ because it may seem like they are ungrateful or just whining but be patient. maybe i am just emotionally drained right now. i think that's a big part of it.

anyway, umm let me shut up now

I feel you girl.
I was scared and excited at the same time. I was excited about a new life and finally being with my husband, but scared of basically giving up everything to do that. I also had some pretty distasteful memories of when I left Jamaica for England at 19.
Not going to lie, there'll be times when you ask yourself why did you do it.
I found chat rooms and the net helped me so much this times round. Even though I had moved countries, the same familiar faces were there online....
As for the job thing, I was lucky because I was pregnant and on maternity leave, when I look back there was NO way I could have managed.
God nah guh gi yuh more dan yuh can hangle, suh nuh fret, everyting cook and curry.

What happened:

The lady from DHL called around 9:40am, just as we were putting the suitcases in the car. She said that the manager could meet us at DHL in Montego Bay if we could get there in 30 MINUTES!!! There is NO WAY to get from Negril to MoBay in 30 minutes. I said it would take us 45-60. She said the manager has an engagement, so we need to hurry.

So without doing a second check around the hotel room, we basically tossed them the key and ran out. Steven needed to give his computer & key to someone, and wanted to say bye. So we went south to where he lives & we said a very quick bye to his mother and a few friends.

Mind you, his plan was to say bye to EVERYONE and get everyone's phone numbers, since he gave all his chips away. But we didn't have time.

Then we HIGHTAILED it to Montegy Bay. Once we got to Lucea, I called the manager of that DHL, Colin, to tell him where we were. He said "So it'll take you another hour?" I said "A little less than that." He said to call him when we got to Mo Bay.

Well, when we were just outside Mo Bay, I gave him a call and he said he was already at DHL. He said he'd pull the package while we got there.

Just after 11, we got to DHL and sure enough, this angel of a manager was there waiting with Steven's package! kicking.gif Of course we tipped him for his inconvenience that saved us a ton of time & money.

Then we had a LOT of drama at the airport. I WISH I'd bought the ticket online that morning (esp since Continental lets you cancel with no penalty within 24 hours) before we even knew... it would've taken 5 minutes MAX. However, it took several different Continental workers almost an HOUR to sell us one ticket to Houston. I was blown away by the... process (didn't want to say incompetence). Blah Blah Blah. He's here now!

The fact that this worked out is 100% attributed to the favor of God.

His first words as the plane was landing in Houston: "Lots of cars & lots of houses!"

Sad part: He didn't get ANYONE's phone numbers. So somehow we have to do that, so he can talk to his friends & family.


WOW!!
This has to be the BEST DHL story I ever heard!!!
I have NEVER heard a good thing about them lol!!!

As for his numbers, they should be easy to recover, I'm sure you have his mother os father's number and you can just go from there....
