I'm not much of a sports fan but I hope that by the time Mark Knowles arrives home on November 17th arrangements would have been made for him to receive some prime real estate in Long Island, as a 'thank-you' all of his years representing the Bahamas. Minister of Sports, you need to work on this. Brent Stubbs, see what you can do please.

If the 40th anniversary of independence "is about building up a national identity and reclaiming Bahamian heritage and culture" why is non-Bahamian Jennifer Hudson headlining a celebration concert?

Is this the first time Bahamian women are on stamps? Can't remember another time. Let's get a Bahamian woman on a bank note next!

I agree! "Servants' really sounds backwards. (Where's the editor to suggest a better choice of words?)

Before we can celebrate a 'national hero' we need to decide what makes someone a national hero. What qualifies someone to carry that title?

Bruce Braynen not Bruce Brennen. Google any and everything if in doubt.

Doesn't surprise me at all! The first thing that went through my mind when it was said months that this airline would be flying here from Panama was, okay, another route for drugs and illegal immigrants.

When your power is off your meter stops running. BEC only bills you for when the meter is running. BEC won't compensate you when the power is off because they aren't collecting any revenue then either.

Guess this explains why Augusta Street was paved so quickly this week.

'Lady Hitmen'? Serious lack of creativity with the names of most female sports team. Just stick Lady in the front of it; duh! I think the secondary school C. R. Walker has the Lady Knights; isn't the female equivalent of a Knight a Dame? Just sounds ridiculous.
