” Be it, as it may”.

Me Thinks we need a think tank.

I was kind of hoping that the brains of this country would realize that
“Having Many irons in the fire”
instead of
“Having all their eggs in one basket”
would better
“Serve the common good”.

Because Bermuda just did not jump out of a Cracker Jack Box it has taken years to build this fantastic Country and you and your parents were all part of the process.

“Don”t stick your head in the Sand”.

“A Penny earned is a penny Saved”.

“Crime does not pay, it drives them away”.

We together have a beautiful country to show for it all, with beautiful people who all played their part , but you all know that, don’t you, because it was your Blood Sweat and Tears and hard work that brought us to where we are today.

You don’t need me to tell you because you know we are the envy of the planet.

” You are what you are going to be “. ( my Father )

“If you live in a glass house don’t throw stones”

We are a Destination or a Paradise where people would part with a life time of savings to come for a few days just to sit out in the sun, others come on cruise ships and max out there credit cards just to swim for an hour or so at Horse shoe bay.

Do you really think that Gaming will solve all of our problems ,if so, you are dreamers.
The answer is DIVERSITY because people are Diverse ( it is a nice word to mean we are all different) Here is a hint, 99 % have an interest other than the grind of 9 to 5 , it could be Gardening , basket ball; Tennis ; Marathons; Music ; Dance; Sailing; Power boating and “Junk Yard Dog” stock car racing real soon.
when most come on holiday it is usually for a REASON or an ACTIVITY and there is your drawing card. Does any body really know why the come on holiday ? it’s to get away from 9 to 5.

” We all can have a piece of the pie”.

“Half a cake is better than no cake at all “.

Bermuda like many other countries has fallen on hard times, this is not the first time. In the past we have been fortunate we recovered .

” There is no quick fix”.

“We can manage with less “.

” It all comes to those who wait “.

Some of the big Stores,such as, Wall-Mart; E bay; Google: are Managed by the geniuses of our time and they are not risk takers, they succeeded on diversity of services and products, Bermuda needs to follow their lead, to day people want.

“Value for money”.

” A Man who works from 9 to 5 has nothing but a man who works form 9 to 9 has every thing”. ( my Father )

“Hay Big spender “.

“Money does not grow on Trees “.

” Everybody it’s Party time”.( Its not a saying just made that up.)

This Island an expensive destination and that has got to change,not tomorrow , NOW.

Read the sage report thank you Mr. B D.

There are three major items which will bring any country to its knees.

I doubt you have a humanitarian bone in your body and everything was done to suit DREB and DREB only.

The comments here show a distinct lack of shame or humility or even self awareness..it’s hard to tell. Pulling the race card is laughable.

The PLP were incompetent. They had a golden opportunity and they blew it and you are partly responsible. Shame eh?

Put away your UBPoba blindfaithfulnessloyalist sword, and get a life. Stop with your bitterness and lies.. take a hard look at this government and see where they are putting the average man….no where fast…and further behind the food line and money line.

Where is your evidence, or is it that the diehardblindfaithfulnessloyalist love to spin lies rather than facts… this seems to be what you do daily. Excuse the UBPOba government for their lies to the people of Bermuda in less than 5 months, yet want to kill others..REALLY

Where is your hard evidence…if you have none,..I suggest you keep your hands of the key board..

If in doubt, slap a little racial emotion into it.

He seems so concerned about the lies but what about the truth. He only covers what people bring up but why not clear his name and cover everything? Uighers.. ect. It’s a bit of a task to name them all.

Bar tenders. Yes, I can remember bar tenders going to Davos, at taxpayer expense, to make dark n stormy’s at the Bermuda party.

So why didn’t you and your lovely wife, who can afford it, stay in one at your OWN expense to save Bermuda, who can’t? Oh and I know know it is difficult for you and others of your ilk to understand, but when I and my fellow hard working Bermudians ‘develop my own knowledge’ I take courses, etc. on my own dime with the hope that my new knowledge will be valued by my employers and may, just may, elevate me one more rung up ladder. How impressed were your employers????

To Susie Quattro (one day you will shed your fear and use your real name!):

1. Review the history of those who attacked others while wearing hoods over their heads. The reference here is to demonstrate the similarity. I urge you to take away the cloak of anonymity and face your opponents like an adult.

2.The rate at the Burj Al Arab was under $1500 per night. Yes, I said at the time that I wanted to see what a seven-star hotel offered so I could develop my own knowledge and share with our local hoteliers. Our own AAA review had shown that we have no five star hotel in Bermuda!

3. Whatever the cost of ground transportation, it merely reflected that I was more active than many of my predecessors. All transportation was justified regardless of cost. What is a reasonable amount, may I ask? Do you think we rented limos and drove around DC in the cold weather for fun?

4.I know it is difficult for you and others of your ilk to understand but my wife and I could afford to, and did stay in a Los Angeles hotel at our own expense. We also paid for our own airline tickets, food, drinks and the spa. We charged nothing back to the Government for that trip. It was a birthday gift from my lovely wife.
As for the donated prizes, I believe they came from Elbow Beach and JetBlue. They were donations and therefore did not cost Bermuda a dime.

5. Bar tenders? You need help.

6. You are lying about the drop in Tourism numbers during GlobalHue’s tenure. In fact in 2007 we had more AIR arrivals and more TOTAL arrivals than we had in the previous 15 years or more. Ask Minister Crockwell to show you the numbers.

I spent the time writing this so that readers who are looking for the truth might be refreshed. I will continue to pray that those who are so afraid to reveal their identities will eventually remove their hoods and engage in a Big Conversation.

Give this guy a mic lol. Blue bird is an a$$ kisser though, can’t deny that. Can’t forget Kangocar either. He has earned his groupie status as well.

Shout out to Triangle Drifter lol

What if ! As a consequence we wind up driving away the family man his wife and children.
What if ! Bermuda gets branded with a unsavory reputation.

What if ! We are playing cards with the Devil.

What if ! The house always wins, a fool and his money are soon parted.

What if ! We have to dig up our 9 golf courses to plant Onions to survive.

After many years of gaining our pristine reputation and see it all gone at 10,35 pm on a Tuesday night at the table ,then, What if !.

The politicians had better think very long and very hard on this one, this country can not afford another Blunder.

You do not make a living by putting your hands in another mans pocket.

Gambling is a Hard Core Business.

What if ! We are building a house of straw.

but the diehard “blindfaithfulnessloyalistUBPoba” fans will never admit to FACTS…only those lies that they enjoy spinning daily…yet they call themselves CHANGE and TRANSPARENCY…far from it. REALLY !!

Now let me enjoy my trip down here in Singapore, checking on things…ya know

They love to click the dislike switch when they are called out ….provide evidence to prove otherwise…since they are not able too, only weapon is to click, click, and more clicks….lol

You, as Premier:

Did stay in the Burj Al Arab. What was the cost? $2,000 a night? $3,000? So that you could “experience the best”, wasn’t it?

You did spend $33,000 on limos in the nine month period starting May 2009, including $8,000 on limos in one trip.

So you’re saying that the “wonderful event that the Playboy mansion” cost the Bermuda taxpayer nothing. No cost for the donated prizes? No cost for travel getting there or staying there?

And yes, you took gombeys and bar tenders all over the place. And tourism numbers went down by 35% during Global Hue’s tenure. Tourism never hit the goals you set, and the hotels you promised never materialized.

Maybe tolerance and acceptance of others that differ from you.

Nah, much easier to call people Uncle Toms and the like as opposed to being tolerant, civil and mature.
