Do Americans change their lifestyle to follow trinis?...do they buy clothes from trini?...do they buy our music?...we produce technology anyone wants?...do they watch our tv shows or movies?

Yes we sell oil, but guess what, we buy back that same oil for 50 times the cost.

Carnival?...i think not...carnival is now becoming global, there's miami carnival...toronto...etc

So what exactly allyuh want the world to see us for?...corn soup?...spotted bananas and oranges

The fact we are savages (thanks brian mc failurelene) and turning back to our primal ways?

Is McFarlene the new Minshall?

WOW that was intense, Rudder and Prof. Philmore on the same stage???

You couldn't help but be impressed by the presentation.
So far I think the summit has been excellent. The leaders spoke from their hearts, no holds barred...the presentation was flawless. The layout of the symposium...everything.

McFarlene's presentation had a lot of production value. But it brings nothing new to the table.

noobie · Postby **noobie** » April 17th, 2009, 9:18 pm

The opening ceremony was great.

It didn't quite reach the right crescendo to really grab the audience though, i'm not artsy so I can't deconstruct exactly what was missing.

It was a fantastic performance all around, by all the artists though. I especially liked Machel's performance, I was wondering what recent tunes would match the occasion...and there it was.

"We not giving up".
