An endless series of interruptions drives me into my garden for this freewheeling episode (apologies in advance for iffy sound quality and general raggedness), in which I talk about:
Why long weekends and public holidays don’t do it for me| Labour Day in Trinidad and Tobago and Tubal Uriah “Buzz” Butler | Mangoes | Anthuriums | Debt relief for Africa | Moussa Sene Absa, Senegalese filmmaker | the MTV crew running roughshod over a protected turtle nesting area in Tobago | how you can support CFR by initiating an order at Amazon.com through any of the links on the site | and play a clip from the This Week in Tech podcast in which Patrick Norton says–okay, in jest–he’s going to buy a certain twin-island state

It’s good to know I’m so influential. I don’t have the podcast, I have the podcast behind the podcast.
You heard that on TWiT too? wow, that has got to be the most awesome thing i’ve haerd in awhile. I think every Trinidadian should send him an e-mail commenting on that. t’was so unexpected.
D’yever notice that Reggaeton sounds just like Soca? it must this unconscious thing in the Caribbean in general.
Wasn’t Buzz some distant relative of ours?
Is it really so odd to call & ask for Cuban coins?
man i almost choked on my sandwich when i heard Patrick say he wanted to buy us.. LOL..
might be a welcome change, yuh never kno.. *laughs head off*
