Today, I want to talk about happenings around the Caribbean scene. You may not want to hear what I want to say but bear with me anyway.
My longtime friend just came back from a caribbean vacation looking like a wilted flower. Of course, I didn’t ask why he looked so drawn and tired, but I can see in his eyes he wanted to tell me. So he did. And boy did he say a lot as I fanned the flames of curiosity. But you know what, I wouldn’t tell you what he had to say because you may not believe me. So I will hold things in check until I feel you are ready for such a sordid tale.
Fred is no great looking guy but he has one trait that I like. He is a go-getter. Fred fired his lawyer recently because the lawyer was late for his divorce proceedings. Well, that is another thing that makes Fred the person he is. He can be spontaneous and get rid of the people he needs. As if I had a crystal ball, Fred did exactly as I predicted when his wife found out he was having a grand time in the Bahamas with a beautiful woman. This was all right except he had custody of the kids for that time.
In other breaking news, the Caribbean saw the devastation that Gustav left. And they also had to deal with Ike as it continued to wreck havoc in the tropical isles. Climatologist have said the hurricanes will happen more often and will be stronger. Much rain will fall over the next few days as Ike winds down. Heavy rains do cause flooding and they can displace people from their home.
The Caribbean is a great place to party and take the family on vacation but the weather is getting weird these days.
