New Stamp causing a stir

Jamaica Postal Service has created a stamp with a picture of Prime Minister Bruce Golding.

The stamp is not sticking to envelopes. This enrages the Prime Minister,who demands a full investigation.


After a month of testing and spending of JA $4.1 million, a special commission presents the following findings:

1. The stamp is in perfect order.

2. There is nothing wrong with the adhesive.

3. The Public are spitting on the wrong side of the stamp.

Seems that someone is also learning to spell

The National Poetry Contest was now down to the last two contestants; a Yale graduate and a Jamaican Rasta man. They were given a word and were allowed two minutes to study the word and come up with a poem that contained the word.

The word they were given was “Timbuktu”.
First to recite his poem was the Yale graduate. He stepped to the microphone and said:
“Slowly across the desert sand,
trecked a lonely caravan;
Men on camels…two by two;
their destination? Timbuktu."

A big applause went up! No way could the Rasta man top that, they thought.
The Rasta man calmly made his way to the microphone and recited:
“Me and Tim, went on de road,
three thief stop wi, an want wi load.
They were three, and we were two…
So I bucked one and Tim-buk-tu .

The crowd went wild!! The Rasta man won. Of course!!

Any liquid flowing through this office is definitely prohibited
