Caribbean Rising II
Apparently not all the out door events over the Heroes weekend were cancelled.On Sunday, James Bond Beach, Oracabessa, St. Mary came alive with Tempo’s combined Caribbean Rising star studded show. With the persistent rains lashing the island the promoters initially decided to delayed Saturdays show until Monday, Heroes Day. This however was later changed as the decision to combine both Saturday’s Caribbean Rising and Sundays Caribbean Rising II into one mega show.
Some Jamaicans braved the rains and were rewarded with performances from some of Jamaica’s top entertainers. The show started at 8:30pm with Bass Odyssey. Others in the line up included Little Hero, Vybz Kartel, Voice Mail, Leftside and Esco, Toots, Wayne Marshall, Cecile, Busy, Bounty Killer, Buju Banton, Elephant Man, Jimmy Cliff and The Game. There was also a surprise appearance by Tri-state’s Bling Dawg.
Despite the torrential rains the small crowd was not disappointed and endured until early morning. The show ended after 2:30am.

Bruk Pocket Jamaican
"Recently, this Jamaican won the 10 million special lottery for a dollar. As soon as the office of the Lottery Corporation was open on the following day, he was there to collect his winnings.
Graciously, he presented his winning ticket to the clerk and in his best English uttered his request "Me cum fi collect the 10 millian dallars, si me ticket ya".
After reviewing and checking the ticket with his manager, the clerk returned and requested on how he would like his payments. The Jamaican replied "Mi wan all a de moni now". "Unfortunately, Sir" the nervous clerk responded, "The procedures are that we can only give you one million now and the balance equally over the next 20 years".
Furious and agitated, the Jamaican asked for the manager, who re-iterated "Sir, my assistant is correct, it is the regulation of the corporation that we initially pay you one million dollars now with the balance paid to you equally over the next 20 years".
Outraged, the Jamaican slammed his hand on the desk and shouted in anger, "Oonu tek me fi idiat, me wan all a de moni now or oonu gi me bak me rass dallar!!"
