Point of clarification. Before everyone loses their marbles -- my comment above was purely sarcasm. Or was it???? LOL!!!

Here's an easy solution: Why don't we approach our new BEST friends (China) for a special loan to help finance the cost of the upgrades to the power plant? We already agreed to have China help finance the cost of the new hospital on New Providence. Why stop there?! In fact, let's have them help with the roads, schools, and airport upgrades on the Out Islands too.

This is absolutely appalling and inexcusable!!! These folks should be immediately thrown in jail. Better yet -- I've got some ideas for their punishment. However, then I would be the one thrown in jail.

The news story says... "with possession of dangerous drugs." Still can't believe having a few grams of weed is considered a "dangerous" drug. How is that any different than going to the liquor store and buying 5 bottles of vodka (which is perfectly legal)?????

Bingo... we have a winner. Well said. And yes, John wishes it was still 1824.

You are 100% correct!! And I've got two daughters and they don't live here too. Until the Bahamas Govt, the Church, and most Bahamian men join the rest of us in the year 2024 (rather than the year 1824) -- they won't return.

Are we living 2024 or 1954???? The fact that some folks still have a stigma towards someone simply because they are divorced is beyond all levels of comprehension. This is truly so sad and appalling. The bottom line is that a relationship between two people (typically a male and a female) is going to be HARD and require constant work and effort. The divorce rate of 50% (in the US, not too sure what it is in the Bahamas) shouldn't be surprising to anyone. Especially to someone that is already married or has been in a long-term serious relationship. And actually, I'm surprised the divorce rate isn't actually closer to 75-80%. So can we please stop with the stigma!! There is nothing wrong with a divorce or a person that gets a divorce.

Exactly. Well said.
