Hi Errol,
Thanks again for keeping me in de 'loop' with the Mausica crew. Such good news and info too on special achievements. I hope I get to meet some of them in person at the New York reunion. Are there many from our year group planning to come?
Thanks also for the misical memories through listening to 'Laporinden.

Hello All,
I am really sorry to hear of Earl's passing. My heartfelt sympathy goes out to his family, close friends and Mausicans in the year groups 1963-1965 and 1964-1966 who had the opportunity to befriend him.
Are we living our lives to the fullest?
Do we see every experience as an opportunity for growth?
Are we giving of ourselves wherever we are?
Are we living our passion?
Live in the present and be thankful for every moment. Looking forward to seeing all of you in New York
Have a fantastic day!!!!!

RE: Reunion

2010-AUG-21-0007Hrs Hi Errol,
The list of Alumni from 71-75 who have indicated their intentions to be in NYC for the 2011 Reunion is now at 34. There are still over 300 alumni from those years who have not responded. We are older, but we can still look out for each other, if you are going to be here, we will accomodate you.
I have began preparations for a good old fashion "Mayfair Mansion Radio Station" session. This cannot be done without Denzil Walker, Sanchez, Watty Watkins and Rawle Carrington.....come on, reach out and touch someone.

RE: MAUSICA WEEKLY EMAILS

2010-AUG-13-2017Hrs Hi Errol,
I do not read the "Weekly" regularly but wish to congratulate you and all the contributors that have made it a reality and keep it interesting. Mausicans are realy a special group and that can be seen from the variety of contributions.
Where else can one get the "concerns" of Finbar or Kamla? (Abdool of course!) What I like is the goal of Pat to record a "History of the Junior Secondary Schools". To a large extent Mausicans made them successful and so too many of the students who were "educated" there. I hope the contributions will pour in but the sequel is the Senior Comprehensives. That episode our our history need to be recorded as well. So Mausicans you are still needed!
Greetings to all,
Ronald Richardson (Toro)

Hi Mausicans
Who can forget La Porrinden? I wanted Trevor to enter the Road march contest with it but he declined. I am back on Montserrat. Apologies to friends in Trinidad whom I did not contact... I would not have been able to answer " So when ah seein' yuh? " and chickened out. It was good to witness the political ping pong up close and personal. My abiding hope is that Trinidadians and Tobagonians, as people everywhere in the world, will appreciate what a big difference they can make simply by being DISCIPLINED!.... no speeding, no driving on the shoulder to overtake and slalom between cars! Littering has been mentioned a lot as part of the problem re floods so I won't go back there. GOD BLESS OUR NATION and I truly hope that the Mausicans on the political inside are allowed to make a difference. To Anna maria I say BON COURAGE , you are already making a difference and God willing, your day in Politics will come. Pat

RE: My Website

2010-AUG-11-0517Hrs
Hello Erroll,
There was a problem with the pace at which the slides with the photos was moving. The viewer now has control to freeze or advance the slides.
Just go to fhe bottom right hand corner and clik on the arrows and pause button.
You want to hear La Porrinden, featuring Bernice Placide and the late, Trevor Davis, as soloists., go to my website, http://rodneyfostertriniauthor.com. That folk song from Dominica, I believe, was one of our biggest hits. Check out the RED GUARDS, 66-68. Real handsome fellas. See how many people you can recognize in the staff and students photo from 1967. Look at Paddy and meh room mate enacting "Lulu", another Mausica hit. Such memories.
Please send me your feedback and remember to order a book and/or CD.
As meh pardnah and Cuban Ambassador, Lester Efebo Wilkie, advise meh, "Dolphie, spread de culture but make ah dollar."
As usual,
Rodney, Dolphus.
