(and i get a decent discount at the resort for friends and family)

What did D say about the lakes? We were on Lake Michigan a few years ago and Andre swore it was the ocean. Said lakes couldn't be that big. We almost duked it out over that.

Hello everyone,

I just stumbled upon this site doing a little research on visa options. It seems I have a wealth of information here to try and understand. I have been lurking for a few days but decided to register and introduce myself.

Sam

Hello Sam. Welcome.

[*JG* 2]

Solso,

I tried to tell her that, but as you can see I failed. I told her she's married and to try and make it work. This is not some boyfriend she can just say to hell with. The worse part is that she's hurting his feelings, so I told her if she keeps that up he's likely to go back home. So, I said what I had to and staying out of it. She has to find her way. Too many woman running after the ANACONDA...and finding it's not all that. While sex is important, it's not the MOST important thing.

I wonder if men think the same thing

I think the majority do.

oh lawd KK< Bowcat is one of our hot topics on here...

it is the jamaican term for oral sex...LOL

Well I've been missing in action for a while. Never heard of the term...I'm going to ask Husband tonight about the term. Want to make that clear.

Oh boy. He's going to probably cuss you.

you all are cracking me up breaking me out with all this big people argument. so i am tempted to join in.

What's stopping you?

LITA, that is why i get so upset when i go to ja and am still made to feel as if despite my blackness, im still not accepted to a degree. ( i know that may sound crazy to some, but it bothers me )

You know, I think its the part of JA u are going to, and I dont think its your Blackness, I think its your Americaness and your dating a Jamaicaness...if you know what I mean. But girl you gotta get out the country and go to Kingston. Wont nobody care what you do, who you date, or what your skin is. There races are all different there. These tourists spots get swarmed with women from other places so I think the Jamaican women in those areas are jsut tired of seeing these guys with them and then going back to Ja women when the foreign lady leaves. Plus all kinds of other stuff to tired to get into.

I have seen the attitude to a point in Margaritaville, Honey - and in more tourist restaurants - I loved it when we were at Fisherman's Point and the bytch immediately handed me the bill with a smirk - I took it and handed it to DJ - then asked her if she needed a drink, because her mouth would soon dry up unless she closed it! I agree that to some point it depends on where you go - The funniest thing to me was on the trips when we have gone away from DJ's area - he gets so pissed off because everyone quotes him tourist prices!

Which is so wrong on the whole. Should be fair prices for everyone.

Tell mi something....I think Marcel can't eat the fish up here. Mi no know if a dat. All he had was fish and rice n peas and he broke out. It was a different type of fish. The doc said he may be allergic to it...so now they have to do an allergy test...cho mi no know

Mercury in the water?

what kind of fish are you buying?

[*JG* 2]

Honey - you can always buy one of those electric tongues - tell D if he has a problem with the toy, he better learn the old fashioned way!

Ha.....awesome idea.

on that note..took Tahlia to have her 1st set of shots today..and on top of that get her ears pierced...my my, my poor baby..she bawl she bawl...

Awwww....I remember that day. I just love baby girls with earrings.

jakeswife, yeah we tend to be kinda silly at times, especially when it comes to the bowcat topic you have to excuse me, i get choked up thinking about it ( sniffling)

i hate that word {bowcat}no wonder some jamaicans are so relunctant to indulge.

jakeswife

LMAO - Maybe Honey can get that and wear it when she lands in JA next trip?

Ha ha ha........let's see what kind of looks Honey gets in JA then!

[*JG* 2]

on that note..took Tahlia to have her 1st set of shots today..and on top of that get her ears pierced...my my, my poor baby..she bawl she bawl...

aw how cute. You know, i was on the MENA forum and there was this huge debate about piercing babies ears and stuff. Some were calling it abuse and crying an everything, I was like what in the world?

They are overly dramatic on that forum sometimes. And, sometimes overly zealous about their adopted religious views.

I remind myself over and over again why I could not be involved with a MENA man every time I go over there.

Hey Yardies.....

I sure miss being in here all damn day. Ugh! Just wanted to say WHAT'S UP!!!!!! Went to get our marriage license today, but don't have a date yet.

Kimmy, why you cause her so much pain in one day?

Yeah, Sunny. Are you gettting excited about marrying him?

Lita - How has Evan been with you being gone at work during the days?

Girl he's fine. I came home to my front yard fully cleaned and gardened. it looked so nice. Today he went to the college to get info and then they told him he would need a state id, so they gave him directions to DMV and he went and got his State ID done. I was like..."thats my man...hold it down!" He tells me "woman, I'm settling myself."

Lita at least your yard looked beautiful why did i come home one day to find my husband in the Yard with one of my most expensive knives pulling uo graas and weeds. Ladies it took several monthe for the wholes to fill back in. When I got out of the car I yell step away from the knife just step away from the knife . Then he had the nerve to ask if i had a machett.

I bought him a machette for just that reason. I caught him outside with my biggest Cutco knives.

wahhaa! My husband talks in his sleep EVERY STINKIN NIGHT!!!

LOL! My honey talks a lot in his sleep too. One night he even jumped out of the bed and started looking underneath the bed. He hollered for me to get up (which I already was) and when I asked him what was wrong he told me he just hit a goat and was looking under the car to see if it was there! I may have a sleepwalker on my hands too then!

BTW, I'm new here so I just wanted to say 'hi' to all the yardies!

Hello newbie.

Where are all these newbies coming from?

No I got him a bike for his bday, which was the day after he got here. I recommend that to those whos man wont be driving. Gives him freedom to go as he pleases and get around. My town in bike friendly. Gave him a map of the city and he just went at it. He has all the rail maps too and I took him on the rail and taught him about buying a $5 day pass and riding wherever he wants. He loves it!

I did that too, Marlita. But, it was how to ride the bus. Our light rail system is just not convenient for us where we live.

So funny Morant! DJ and I have already had this discussion, lol - He was fixing the car with the knife from the kitchen - I told him there are kitchen knives and tools, not one and the same!

My hubby is asking for a rechargable cordless drill for Christmas. This scares me.

[*JG* 2]

Marlita.....Check out knife.depot.com. That's where I got Andre's.

Watch out for the bb guns. Make sure it really doesn't look like a real gun. My son was all into these at one point. I didn't want him being shot in some misunderstanding with the police. You know?

[*JG* 2]

TOYS? Lawd, if iI mention that to my husband he might leave mi. Not my cup of tea anyway.

Aw toys are fun! I'm like the White chick on the game...they be doing some freaky stuff.....hmmm....they are getting a divorce now though.

'Lita, my husband HATES the ideas of toys too! That is a big no-no for him, when I talk about using them. He seriously takes it as some sort of personal attack against his manhood, like it's something he's not doing. I'm like "bay, you're not here! That's the reason why I have to use them sometimes, I gotta make it through til my next visit! " I have a feeling though that once he's here, the toys might have to go...

Girl just get the toys bring em with you next time and just dominate im rass! He will eat it up and pretty much do whatever you want at that point. The fact that his wifey is his little freaky deaky...oh yeah...he'll like the toys then. Depends on the toys too, start him off light.

The toys I got...he will DEFINITELY not like....maybe the bullet....but that's the smallest, and most sensible looking thing I have...everything else is elongated, beaded, goes in every other direction, and multiple vibrating speeds!!

Oh, NO. The day we went to get Andre's tatoo, we went down in the basement to look at all the toys. I thought he was going to bolt. The look on his face was priceless at times.

WHEW! Just caught up on this thread from pg 120 to now and you all have me cracking up here! Thanks for the warm welcome too! Now I don't know whether to comment on the bamboo, the bowcat, the poor baby with the cute pierced ears, more funny sleeping antics or machete landscaping! This is great entertainment!

You haven't seen anything yet.

Why is it that some Jamaican men must share EVERY detail of what they need to go do in the bathroom? Drives me nuts - I don't wanna know!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Amen to that.

[*JG* 2]

Hey Ells...I'm not sure if you said so earlier in this thread, but clearly you can see that these ladies can chat, and for me to try to go back to look for the info could take all night...so how far along in the process are you? Where is your SO from?

I'm still in the 'prep' process. Just finished filling out his 325A yesterday after about 5 days of trying to piece together his life and numerous phone calls and getting incredibly frustrated with eachother. I have the rest of the K-1 package forms together though...going to e-mail the 325 & letter of intent to marry to someone in Negril or Lucea to print them out (maybe Easy Rock Cafe in Negril), have him sign and then FedEx or UPS back to me w/his passport photos and once that is done, I'll be starting my timeline! YAY!

He is from Kingsvale up in the country from Lucea (Hanover as many of you probably already know).

I have a lot of questions but don't know where to start and this 'yardie' thread moves so fast I'm afraid I might lose any info someone may put out there.

Use the guides tabs at the top of the page. Then, if you have an individual question, just throw it out there. If no one answers you or you are still confused, put it out there again and ask someone to PM you.

I asked about the pictures under your writing but cant find it again can someone help please

timelines? If you click on one, it will take you to the page and you can set up your own.

Ells do u live in the states ?

Yes, I live in California....San Francisco! Boy is that going to be some culture shock for a young man from the country!

don't worry he will do fine Marlita just got her husband here she is in Cali as well so is Jonesie

Better warn him of the chi chi mon before he gets there, though.

ellis i am in the same stage as you, just ask away the ladies are wonderful about answering your questions, usually if they give you info i just print it up or have them PM( personal message) you and then you can print that, i got a manilla folder for all my stuff as im compiling it and as i read the forms i wrote down questions i had about each form on the outside of the folder, and then asked on here, as they answered my questions i filled in my folder so i could use it for reference. i also sent my SO a folder as well of the same stuff, and im surprised i mailed it on friday and he got it today that is warp speed for JA mail...LOL

I wish us both the best for a speedy process! How did you mail....regular USPS or another service? Just curious because I'm a little leary of the JA postal system.

If mailing to JA, I always used FedEx or UPS. I never trust their mail service for really imporatant papers. Ironically, when I mailed/mail something there, it got there within 8 days, like clockwork. I just KNEW the important stuff would disappear on me if I did that.

Morning JG --

It was snapper. I don't know what got him to break out. He's use to getting everything fresh. He's never had frozen fish...if he want fish to cook he just go catch it clean it and cook it.

[*JG* 2]

ok ladies this is a record for me..i am loggin off and hittin the covers...wow and its not even 9 yet

Thanks everyone for the well wishes and the advice already! Good to know this is more of the 'social' thread and I won't be committing any major newbie faux pas by starting topic specific threads on the visa process. But for sure I'll keep checking in on this thread cause it's too much fun!

be afraid..be very afraid..

hopw u learn to edit ur quotes cause u get lashes for too many quotes

And all caps.

he keeps telling me it cool in the evening, so i bought him one of those soft fleecy blankets though im pretty sure my idea of cold and his is two different things...LOL

I had taken Andre one of those Land's End Polar Fleece blankets when he said he was cold. He used it all the time.

I haven't questioned how a courier service package would get there either....I guess I'm assuming in much the same way that anything else would. I bet it would be something where you include their phone # & when it arrives they call them to come pick up?? I was just thinking the UPS route for him getting the docs to me in a timely fashion but not the other way around. However, I'm sure if you wanted something to get there quickly & with tracking options, the couriers would be the way to go if you're willing to pay the extra $$.

Sometimes they deliver and sometimes they have to go pick it up at the office. Depends on where they live.

Does he live in the hills? Sometimes those breezes can be cool (I would guess upper 60s) but that's damn near freezing for them! I remember the first time it felt "nice" maybe the mid 70s after some rainy days...my fool husband put on a sweatshirt, jacket, and knit cap! I thought we were flying to damn Canada or something! I'm walking around in capris and a tanktop feeling good,, and he's bundled up like a damn snowman!

You better buy him one of those arctic snowsuits when he gets here, Mrs. P.

Mrs P, he does live up high, above sea level. he says it is cool in the evening, ,but me like you was like oh this feels so nice. i was gonna get him some slippers but i always thinkof JA being to warm for stuff like that, me when im warm i dont want anything like that on my body, covering my feet or anything else.

If you tell him you are getting him slippers and then show up with fuzzy slippers, he is going to think you are nuts. He's going to be expecting flip flops.

Island what time is your SO appt on the 11/21?

Someone had an interview yesterday, didn't they?

We can't get good snapper here. It's so very rare, it's like Christmas when we do. We tend to stick to saltfish, catfish (the only thing we can get fresh here), frozen Tilapia, shrimp, canned & frozen salmon, canned macrel.

I seriously wonder if it is the water they are pulling that fish out of that is bothering him.

[TRELAWNY PARISH 10]

Hey Ladies;

If you plan on being in the D.C. area for the inaguration celebrations in Janauary start booking hotels and airfare NOW! I wish I was still in my house, I would have been able to put up most of you. Well the partying started from Tuesday night and it will continue until he's in office. All the clubs are doing something starting tonight and until Sunday.

I don't know. He had a problem eating chicken also when he got here it made him sick. Same with the vegetables and fruits. He still refuses to eat canned vegetables. First time he ate bannans he threw it up.
