But Rodney! Ay! Ay! You don't know about Lady Observer's (my) calypso Mamas without Papas.Ask Gwendolyn Williams.Never has a calypso aroused such ire. I had to be escorted back to my hostel that night. I was attacked verbally and physically. I recall Ken Parmasar and Noel T. being at my side. Some persons did not talk to me for years after graduating from Mausica. After all this time I would like to publicly apologize to those whom I hurt. Some of them were not even in my contemplation but thought it applied to them. I wrote that calypso in 10 minuters flat out of anger. Being hurt myself, does not give one the permission to hurt others and my Mausican sisters were hurt by that calypso,but I was young, in my teens.I am so much older and wiser now.
It does not seem I will be able to join the posse in NY after all . I will be presenting a paper and attending a council meeting at a Family Law World conference in France the week before and do not think I will get another week off from work. I am in Orlando next week .Any Mausicans there? I will be staying at Hilton Bonnet Creek from Wednesday to Sunday.I would love to see a fellow Mausican, since we all over the globe.
Have a great week all. I will be in Trinidad for a weekend in June and hope to check Fitzie. I spoke to him no too long ago when I was in Trinidad.He is still as sharp as ever. Anyone remembers when is his birthday? I know the Cuff is January 6 but Fitzie's gone out my head.
Love to all.
