GUESTBOOK/ READER'S COMMENTS |
A
friend mentioned her mom’s cat and a memory came back to me. Back in In
my mind there's nothing more satisfying than seeing an old black man who's been
through it all in American, smile and be happy. I ventured into the local
Jamaican store to get some stew chicken, rice and peas and vegetables. It's just
a little hole in the wall, but the food is good. Anyway, the music is blasting
and the old guy about 70 is serving food and he's happy. His face radiates joy
as if to say, life is good, let the music play on. Being me I want to ask him
why he's so happy, please tell me your secret. But I think better of it. You
shouldn't ask someone why they're happy-it's a right and shouldn't be an
inquisition. Got my food and headed home. If
you’ve never watched “24” starring Kiefer Sutherland as Jack Bauer super
agent you surely haven’t enjoyed the best of the TV experience. The show is
about Jack’s seemingly one man quest to keep terrorism at bay. He works for
CTU and whatever it takes to get the job done, Jack will surely do.
This is season 5 and we find Jack just as tormented as ever-fucking
beautiful. There’s something to be
said about seeing one man going up against the odds and always finding a way to
come through. When Jack gives you his word-you can take it to the bank. Fox |
