ask your guys who stole the perimeter fence at the airport. they are more expert in thievery. besides, a person with your obvious character defects need not ask someone else how to be dishonest.

Atabey, have you ever given any thought to spending some quality time with a psychiatric professional? i mean this in all seriousness. there is something radically wrong with someone who starts 19 threads on a current post board which has room for 39. almost 50 % of the theads have been started by you. as we speak, you have the last word in 22! you need professional intervention. this is not normal behavior. nobody can be that desperate for attention. something went wrong in your childhood, and you should seek professional help for your maladjustment. no good can come of your current condition.

I will give you this advanced notice: Tomorrow I start my gym sessions. My left shoulder is 80%, but I need to get it close to 100% this Summer. That should make you happy.

Hello, Dread. Glad to see you spreading words of wisdom, once again! I thought you had gotten bored and quit this site. Good to know you’re still with us.

Anyway, as per your reference to seek psychiatric evaluation, I feel it’s a very important part of a periodical regiment in maintaining good physical and mental health.

My analyst says that I came to her just at the nick of time. She said that, had I waited a few weeks longer, I would have certainly “lost it”.

She went on to reveal that people our age, have a tendency to think we know everything and therefore, act out as though we know everything. I said, yes, I know everything. Then she said, no, you don’t. If you knew everything, you would have known how idiotic, bizarre, peculiar, and weird you are. I said, Wow! I didn’t know that! ..So now that I know all that about me, I know everything.

It’s good to know things, Eh?

we have the same psychiatrist, you and i both. at least, at our age, we have a right to think such self serving things, because we have been around forever, and acquire knowledge by osmosis. when you are a young upstart, and think you know everything, then you have a problem. when you have never stood before a gathering of students, and taught a single class, yet pontificate robustly about corrective measures for the education system, then you are delusional.

Communications cables:

ANTILLAS I (Dominican Republic-Puerto Rico)


ARCOS-1 (Americas Region Caribbean Optical-ring System) (USA, Mexico, Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, Venezuela, Netherlands Antilles, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, Turks and Caicos Islands, Bahamas) The ARCOS cable network interconnects the United States and 18 countries in the Pan-Caribbean Central America providing the regions only fully redundant, ring protected cable network.

Fibralink (Jamaica-Dominican Republic) Is a network linking Jamaica to Dominican Republic where it interfaces with the ARCOS Network.

No immediate need for "DR-->via Haiti to Jamaica " cable....

Communication cables are screwing up sharks sense of direction with their electromagnetic emanations, thereby making sharks swim around in circles.
This prevents them from moving out of their Jamaican winter haunts, (where they prey on Rastafarians), to where they should be, the Mona passage, feasting on the annual Dominican yola migration.
This is not fair to sharks and the invaluable niche they occupy in the extirpation of the weak-minded and DR haters.

I say "NO" to cables. Shouldn't you?

What good is Triple Play when you don't have electricity to power your phone, Internet and cable box. The country should focus on a consistent and affordable electric grid.
