St. Mary, St. Mary. Gone are those days when you could get up in mornings and wash your face and brush your teeth, sometimes squeezing out the last of the toothpaste to brush your teeth. Then you would eat fruit all day. Sometimes you would ignore breakfast, which is cabbage and salt fish and roast breadfruit and chocolate tea. Sometimes egg which you get from the fowlnest and mint tea. The mint was grown in the back yard. Banana with run dung with salt fish and coffee tea. Just naming a few things. Gone are those days. We thought we poor, but we blessed to eat healthy. You eat what you plant. Even the pigs ate healthy. You would cook young bananas and young bread for then and given leftover from the table. The dogs ate healthy, they would get turn corn cornmeal and left overs from the dining table. The cows and the goats ate grass. The chickens ate grated coconut and leftovers. Then, you were sure of what you were eating. One more thing, we used to get our milk from the cows and the goats.

@@gracegoldson4280 I know what you are talking about. Those were the best times. We were eating healthy and didn't even know or realized that that was so. I used to eat a lot of guava because it was there. Didn't even realize that it's one of the most healthy fruit. Thank you for sharing ❤️👍🇯🇲

What pains my heart about my beautiful JA is how Jamaicans hardly own anything from beaches to airports everything has been sold off and people ripped off all for tourism. It really makes me feel sick to my stomach

[@impactingjamaica]

Not quite so though.

My quirky parish fact is open knowledge in Jamaica.......concerning the parish of Manchester.......its' capital,Mandeville is the only parish capital that is not on a river or the ocean.......it's a town on a hill....

Parishes began as religious spatial administrative units (re: the Anglican Church)...the island's three counties were designed for local government but not so used...

Thank you for sharing that insight. It’s always great to learn more about the background of Jamaica's unique structure.

[@WesleyLoretta]

Thanks for the forecast! Could you help me with something unrelated: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). What's the best way to send them to Binance?

[@impactingjamaica]

As for your question, it's important to keep your seed phrase secure. To send USDT to Binance, you'll typically need to import your wallet into a compatible exchange or use the wallet’s built-in features to transfer your funds.

Isn’t the General Penitentiary in Kingston a prison?

[@impactingjamaica]

The video refers to the St. Catherine Adult Correctional Centre, aka Spanish Town Prison. There is no reference to the General Penitentiary, which is in Kingston.

[@johncbny]

@ … but the video said there is only ONE prison in Jamaica; the Spanish Town prison. So my question is: isn’t the General Penitentiary also a prison?

[@orane3549]

@@johncbny That comment in the video stumped me too, because I knew general penitentiary was down Elliston Road area, but these days when I go back, I see houses, so I thought the video knew something I did not.

@@orane3549 …haven’t been back in decades but I know for a fact that it is somewhere in the area you mentioned. And it is definitely a prison.
