This is Mr Lincoln Augustus, first second cousin of Holymagiman

It has been a good Christmas holiday, sitting in the boat and floating in the seas, and we passed lands so near and yet so far away, fishing the fish, crabbng the crabs and smoking the smoke in the swelling waves.

Been meeting up with some very old friends from Georgetown, and somehow the talking turned to Jonestown. Seems like there were always some people who believed in the preachings of the false preacherman and worshiped at the wrong temples and let their souls fall to despair,, and that is a history that will always repeat itself.

And so, as we sit here this warm Jamaican evening listening to the rolling waves, there is nothing more to do than to breathe of the essence of a Numba One and wet the lips with the cool Red Stripe. Pure bliss.

Ans we reflect on the words that Holymagiman wrote "Dems dat be worryins be worryin, dem dat not be worrins not be worryins, an ah jus be sittin heres wid de Numba One an de Reddy Strip, sittin on dde bitch an wachin de sands an de shells an de differen pipples in total dat be wakkin byes."

And yes, we feel that those who are worrying should be doing what they feel they should do to worry less, perchance drawing anchor and setting sails to the greener pastures just around the bend.

And those who are not worrying obviously have nothing much to worry about, just as the waves roll in and roll out of the Kingston beaches,again and again, over and over and over to the end of time.

And the family has now more than eighty shares, which is a lot of shares by most standards, so we hope that we too can eventually roll out again. Time will tell.

And so we just sit here on the yellow sands,smoking the smoke and talking the talk about this and that and watching the total strangers who roll up for the fishhead soup with crab and red chillies with the paprika sauce that Mma Mimoosa does so well squatting at the wok.

So life is good and the days are long and may the blessings of the Lord be coming to all the good brothers and sisters.
