You make me laugh when you say, *"I don't begrudge anybody for taking the best option they can."*

But you certainly should begrudge Coward Davis and the ruling political elite for leaving most Bahamians without access to similar quality medical care in The Bahamas for fairly common ailments of the kind he always goes abroad to receive treatment for.

His ailment is a common one for overweight people and most Bahamians afflicted with it are forced by their financial circumstances to receive treatment in The Bahamas. Keep in mind the vast majority of Bahamians cannot afford the exceptionally comprehensive and generous medical insurance that Coward Davis and fellow parliamentarians enjoy at great expense to the taxpayers.

The jury is actually still out on whether this was indeed a cyber-attack by a state sponsored closely-knit group of attackers. CrowdStrike's CEO was much too quick with his dismissal of the possibility of vulnerabilities in their security patch roll-out systems having been exploited by cyber-attackers. Obviously CrowdStrike stands to lose a lot of business if it has fallen victim to the very thing that its products are intended to protect its customers from.

Senior IT people at Google, Oracle, Adobe and others have all said it would (should) have taken CrowdStrike considerably longer than a couple of hours to fully investigate and rule out a cyber-attack. Many suspect there may be a cover up going on here by the US intelligence agencies and DHS given that this CrowdStrike incident points out serious outage vulnerabilities in most government systems around the world as well as the dangers imposed by Microsoft's global monopoly.

You should not feel left out @birdie. As a longtime ChiCom troll of commenters on this website, the US NSA has likely created and passed along to the US State Department a rather 'juicy' dossier on you too. LOL

Unless GBPC is guarding their more critical equipment, one can only wonder what might be going own given Stumpy Davis's assurances to the cunning, conniving and insatiably greedy Snake, and his cabal of marauders, that they will gain control of the entire energy sector of The Bahamas.

With a looming Trump presidency, I suspect the US State Department has dusted off the thick dossiers it has on the likes of Snake, S. Bastian, The Wicked Witch of the West, Vomit Christie, Stumpy Davis, Chester the Jester, A. Ferguson and his Greek Master, The Bag Man Bethel, Slimy Fwreddy Boy, and so on. This does not bode well for our small nation given the warnings Trump and Bolton communicated to then PM Tyrant Minnis at a meeting that was held at Mar a Lago in Palm Beach.

Trump is on record as stating that unchecked wide spread corruption in Cuba, The Bahamas and Turks & Caicos presents an existential threat to the national security interests of the US given the geographical proximity of these islands to the US mainland and their susceptibility to the "debt trap" modus operandi of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

Maxine Waters too!

Both Linux and Mac OS were born from UNIX. My children thankfully enlightened me many years ago why I should despise any and every thing to do with Bill Gates. Businesses worldwide need to wake up to the many security issues and privacy vulnerabilities associated with both Microsoft and CrowdStrike. Apple really should re-think its policy of allowing Microsoft to continue its dominance of the business market place. Apple also needs to re-think the merit of its contractual arrangements with Google that annoy the hell out of the users of Apple products.

These "hits" are ordered from the very top.

> The sip-sip is that the son of a very high-ranking Member of the Governing Party has been granted a Crown Lease or Grant of over four acres on the north side of the island and has seemingly been given permission to decapitate the small but very environmentally important hillock, in the islands center.

Now exactly who could that very high-ranking Member of the Governing Party be? Could he be none other than Chester the Jester?

Tell it to the Pope and the many other millions of devout Roman Catholics worldwide who enjoy consuming the blood of Christ (red wine) with the body of Christ (white wafer) during communion at their weekly mass. Sorry to hear that you believe all of these Catholics have a terribly pious attitude that is most unattractive. LOL
