On Monday evening, Jamaican authorities arrested 19 year old, Davion Parson, the suspect who is charged with murdering Poison Dart DJ, Michael “Chris Rock” Rottigan, DJ Antone “Tony Montana” Geargo-Neely, and their associate Kevin “Bumba Blaze” Jordache Webster. Parson was captured in Kingston, Jamaica and is awaiting extradition to the US.

It’s been a R-E-A-L-L-Y long month for me while working on the site. It’s taken a lot of blood, sweat, almost tears, and even some hard cold cash but I’ve gotten it done finally. I had to update the site mainly because I’m a perfectionist of sorts when it comes to this site, I [...]

I want to say thanks to Wordpress expert Mahtab Ali, who has helped me SO much this past couple of weeks to get my site up and going. I’d made some coding errors and couldn’t fix them and he stepped right in and fixed them all, plus some. So, if you have a Wordpress site [...]

Hey everyone I’m back for real this time. It’s been a crazy couple of weeks, I’ve been busy building 4 websites on Wordpress, this one of course, my copywriting site LonelyIslandCopywriting.com, AllOverJamaica.com ( a site about things to see and places to go in Jamaica), and my personal one, Tremaya.com. I’m not sure if I’m [...]

Well peeps, I did it. I made the big switch to Wordpress and what an endeavor it’s been! Transferring my files was oh so easy but as far as the hosting, templates, and FTP stuff….a total nightmare. I’m sure in a few months I’ll be a pro but for now I feel like I’m going [...]

It’s been a rough week for me as I’m sure it has for a lot of you. I’m entertaining my cousin (in-law) from Trelawny for two weeks (Big up Stitchie!), working on getting my freelance business up and going and a bunch of other stuff, so yeah I’ve been dragging this week. I did manage [...]

For the last 6 months or so, I’ve been dealing with a phone that is so sub-standard I was actually slightly embarrassed to use it in public. OK, not really but it is laughable and has been then the butt of oh so many family jokes (check out the pic). I actually had to put [...]

First thing every morning Ziggy wanted to pick “apples”, she initially kept calling them “apples” because she couldn’t pronounce ackee but she eventually mastered the name and the art of picking them off the ground once I picked them from the tree. Even before she got her hair combed, changed her clothes or even ate [...]

Man, I can’t seem to get it together yet, you really do need a vacation to recuperate from your initial vacation! I’ve spent the entire morning reading 2 weeks worth of blogs and websites and I’m tired and I still have all my Jamaican sites to do. From the sounds of things I didn’t miss [...]

Hey everybody and Happy New Year’s!!! I got back from Jamrock last night after 16 wonderful days with my family, friends, and of course food! In case you hadn’t noticed I wasn’t able to access the internet while I was gone so, I have a lot to talk about including Highway 2000, the Hard Rock [...]

Hey everybody, it’s been a not-so great day. My day started with a thump when Ziggy fell out my bed this morning (she was fine)!
