The baseline for everything is 20m. For once I'd like them to table a detailed budget of what the 20 million pays for. I stress **detailed**, no 19million for labour 1 million for steel...too vague. They've used the figure so often we dont even question it... 30 million for digitization!!! 27 million for the stadium. I heard about one contract for 15 million that was simply outrageous but these vendors have learned to aim for the moon.

"*we are really formulating the best plan and the best approach to dealing with these types of situations. But, of course, you know what Grand Bahama has experienced and we are working really to address how we deal with it moving forward.”*

"**Workjng** on **HOW** we'll address it moving forward"???? 3 years after Dorian and we're stumped by 10" of rain. Pray God that we do not have a serious hurricane

I guess? I must say we do indeed call upon our military to do the extraordinary in unusual times. They do need to polish up the run of the mill though

and airplane training of all things! I believe those guys were at flight school in Florida sometime around 9/11/01

Doesnt make sense to me. We're going to help them build their tourism product? And theyre going to give us a few million for the SBDC that has no rudder. I recall talking to a senior official about what entrepreneurship takes and them telling me, thats not what the SBDC is for. Ok.

If thats what she did, thats what you remember her for. children carry on a legacy but for the most part people remember you for eternity for your "works".

"*The individual under investigation is a male, foreign national who travelled to The Bahamas*"

And this is the path that all viruses and virus variants take, they hitch a ride on a traveler. As a tourist based economy it's not something we should run away from, its something we should be planning for. If we pretend as if virus are only spread by Bahamians who *cant behave*, we run the risk of reliving the Columbus experiment

Lol. Implication being... they decided not to load up with fuel required for the trip because gas was too expensive??? I suppose someone "might" chance it on a short hop but I'd be uber surprised if someone did that calculation for a long haul trip. IF and that's IF fuel were an issue (because only God knows what happened at this point), more likely that they miscalculated the amount needed or someone missed a step

Lol @ "*for insurance purposes*"....yes I'll gamble with my life but not if insurance wont pay*

I wasn't referring to anything other than your use of the quote "*speak now and sound like a fool, or stay quiet and ba a jackass for the rest of your life.* Its an inaccurate representation of the intended meaning of the saying. The proverb actually says, its "ok" to be uninformed/ignorant/foolish (all of us are on some issue), but its better to be quiet than to speak(as an authority) if you are. You implied that "intelligence" was speaking even if you are foolish. The only scenario where that applies is if you acknowledge ignorance and ask to be educated

Its neither here nor there...
