“The other day Mrs. King and I spent about ten days down in Jamaica. I’d gone down to deliver the commencement address at the University of the West Indies. I always love to go to that great island which I consider the most beautiful island in all the world. The government prevailed upon us to be their guests and spend some time and try to get a little rest while there on the speaking tour. And so for those days we traveled all over Jamaica. And over and over again I was impressed by one thing. Here you have people from many national backgrounds: Chinese, Indians, so-called

Mention Jamaica to any non-Jamaican and immediately he or she will respond Bob Marley! Reggae music! No problem man! Or Jerk cooking.
Is Jerk the name of a dance? Maybe!
Is jerk the name of a person? Maybe!
Then what is jerk?
Jerk seasoning is made up of various herbs and spices. Jerking is using this seasoning on various meats and cooking slowly on medium heat. The term herb is also used to describe “Jamaica Ganja” a potent illegal weed, or illegal substance or drug. Jerk was a method used by the maroons to prepare wild pigs in their fight in the hills of Jamaica against the British.

The Indian With One Testicle
There once was an Indian who had only one testicle and whose given name was ‘Onestone’.
He hated that name and asked everyone not to call him Onestone.
After years and years of torment, Onestone finally
cracked and said, ‘If anyone calls me Onestone
again, I will kill them!’
The word got around and nobody called
him that any more.
Then one day a young woman named Blue Bird
forgot and said, ‘Good morning, Onestone.’
He jumped up, grabbed her and took her deep into
the forest where he made love to her all day and
all night. He made love to her all the next day,
until Blue Bird died from exhaustion.

Dr. Mar Aprem of the ancient Chaldean Orthodox Church of the East in
India tells a funny story about when a member of the church won a
lottery worth 100,000 rupees. His wife went to the bishop and told
him that she was afraid to tell this glad news to her husband because
he had a heart problem and any sudden excitement could cause a heart
attack.
The bishop offered to break the news gently to her husband. He
visited the house and asked the man, “Wouldn’t it be a good thing if
you won 1,000 rupees in the lottery?” The man replied that he still
would have to work to support his family.
“What about 10,000 rupees?” the bishop asked. The man still showed no
excitement, so the bishop carefully raised the amount to 50,000 and
finally to 100,000 rupees.
“If I got 100,000 rupees, I would give half of it to you, your
Excellency,” the man replied.
The bishop had a heart attack, and the man called an ambulance.
We can get excited about winning and getting. But have you learned

It was autumn, and the Indians on the remote reservation asked
their new Chief if the winter was going to be cold or mild.
Since he was an Indian Chief in a modern society, he had never
been taught the old secrets, and when he looked at the sky, he
couldn’t tell what the heck the weather was going to be.
Nevertheless, to be on the safe side, he replied to his tribe
that the winter was indeed going to be cold and that the members
of the village should collect wood so they would be prepared for
it.
