(yes, I have e-mailed NIB, and taken several other steps thru insider contacts - still nothing). I'm sure someone has it handy. Thanks.

Does anyone have the website address (exact full address) where you can fill out the Unemployment Form online? On the main NIB website the form is front and center on the main page - which is great - but it seems you can only download it and print it. The downloaded file does not allow fields to be filled in - so that when you print, it come out typed.

The word on the street is that this form must be filled in / complete - online.

a friend is asking - would be grateful is someone can post the URL / web address here.

Many thanks.

My friends, it has been an interesting few years. However, it is now time to throw in the towel, for good.

I noticed this morning that 5G equipment is being trucked around Nassau, preparing to install (at least someone posted pics). This may or may not be true, and I do not want to spread false information - and so I state firmly that this info is not confirmed. However, I myself trust the source and believe it is happening.

This is clearly being done without consultation of the people, and it appears they are using the Chinese equipment too. Absolute insanity here.

We in this country have no voice, and no input to anything that takes place. We just show up every 5 years, like fools, and vote "the other party" in - which was just in a few short years ago. Why did we vote them out in the first place, knowing full well that we will simply put them back in again before long?

All of this typing on here, is useless and makes absolutely nothing change. I intend to keep my fingers (and especially my thumbs) clean from now on.

God help the Bahamas and God help us all. Best wishes to all of my fans, and even to my haters - best wishes to all. Goodbye.

Das a booty eh? Gal say she thick and boujee. Muddo.

A nuclear bomb cant stop baby-making in Abaco. God said "multiply" and so, dammit, that's what they gah do.

I agree the govt is doing a good job under the circumstance. Much better than I would have thought. The discussion here though is about pie in the sky - things like woulda coulda shoulda - which really don't affect reality. Most Bahamians don't want the Bahamas to become the 51st state, so it is a waste of time discussing it. They are happy as pigs just sucking teet.

STEM would be nice - but I don't think the population would tolerate the government putting a 100% total ban on reggae, rap, and gansta music which is poisoning the minds of our youth. Poisoned minds cannot learn STEM, and so I guess we gotta fresh up the bait and grab our fishing line.

Govt should not prohibit, of course. However, they could make it possible for Bahamians to thrive here. Have you ever wondered WHY our hospitals are full of Philippinos? The threat of losing a work permit, hanging over someone's head, works wonders for the master with the whip.

Yes, and on the other side of the coin, some (including myself) have advocated for us to become the 51st State of the USA so that we would be in the fold and enjoy the benefits of citizenship and the entire Federal system - instead of always flying over there every few months and begging entry so that we can get the things we need and enjoy the entertainment we need.

But - NO - that idea has been rejected on the back of what I term "False Independence". You are stating it here, how we rely on food (at the very least) from the USA just to survive. So we are neither are part of the Union - nor are we independent - and thus we suffer like fools in a boat with no motor and no paddle.

It reminds me of a quote from the Bible in Revelation 3:16
"So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth."

Zero tolerance? Does that mean he is going to continue the country's policy of locking up all of our young men and women who have a joint in their possession? Filling up the prisons with non-violent offenders? Contributing to the pressure on judges to give bail to violent offenders due to prison overcrowding?

Ruining the lives of our youth by branding them with a life-long police record on their file? Of course, that is his job. It is good to hear someone say they are going to do their job. A good thing.

However, let us continue to pray as a nation that somewhere on high in our Government someone wakes up and decides to amend the laws to prevent the continued destruction of the futures of our young men and women - and instead help them and guide them to become law abiding, productive, valued members of society.

19 year old kids sitting up in prison breathing oxygen, don't help nobody.
