Plain Talk - Phillip Edward Alexander: Awards, Prizes & Public Accolades...

http://plainlytalking.blogspot.com/2013/12/awards-prizes-public-accolades.html

Plain Talk - Phillip Edward Alexander. Thursday, December 12, 2013. Awards, Prizes and Public Accolades. As the year comes to a close many organizations and personalities rush to put out their list of top performers of the year and I plan to as well, but in the meantime I thought we could kick off awards season with a sample of how any awards list I might write might go. And the fact that she, Price, has never been able to wear African attire herself, who does she think African attire is for? In the time...

Plain Talk - Phillip Edward Alexander: Contrast & Compare... (nah man Cro Cro, wrong way brother)

http://plainlytalking.blogspot.com/2011/02/contrast-compare-nah-man-cro-cro-wrong.html

Plain Talk - Phillip Edward Alexander. Monday, February 28, 2011. Contrast and Compare. (nah man Cro Cro, wrong way brother). Listening to the words of Cro Cro's offering for the Calypso Monarch 2011 Compare and Contrast, all I can say is that we as a nation must have evolved past this level of racist hate and prejudice by now, hasn't anyone told Cro Cro? Here is an excerpt from the song in question:. So political choice MUST be made based on skin color and no other criteria? Regardless of your views on ...

Plain Talk - Phillip Edward Alexander: Louis Lee Sing's To Do List...

http://plainlytalking.blogspot.com/2010/12/louis-lee-sings-to-do-list.html

Plain Talk - Phillip Edward Alexander. Sunday, December 19, 2010. Louis Lee Sing's To Do List. Rough up downtown vendors. Steal candy from a baby. Trip guy on crutches. Close down St. James Market. Close down Mas Camps. Make daily showers illegal. Close bars and pubs at midnight. Bicycle riders must get 'Rider's permit'. Pick up Mrs. Aboud's dry cleaning. Remember to exit room backward bowing as I go. Let down Rowley's tyres. Poor people in town have to walk with a bell and a sign. The Power of Media.

Plain Talk - Phillip Edward Alexander: Inconsistent Consistencies... (Firing Jack)

http://plainlytalking.blogspot.com/2013/03/inconsistent-consistencies-firing-jack.html

Plain Talk - Phillip Edward Alexander. Thursday, March 28, 2013. Inconsistent Consistencies. (Firing Jack). And there's more. Because something far more sinister is being exposed here, evidenced by the Prime Minister's contradictory response to allegations of misbehavior within her Cabinet, and to get to the meat of the matter we have to be reminded of the following:. Now contrast and compare those three above with this:. Why such a sudden and drastic change to in the Prime Minister's previously demonstr...

Plain Talk - Phillip Edward Alexander: October 2013

http://plainlytalking.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html

Plain Talk - Phillip Edward Alexander. Monday, October 28, 2013. Unsung Hero of St. Joseph. On Sunday September 18th 2005 one of my letters to the Editor entitled “Homage to St Joseph’s Fidel Gonzalez” was published in one of the major dailies, and I would like to share that letter here to make a point:. He is Fidel Gonzalez, recently deceased, gentleman, businessman, humanitarian. Mr Gonzalez, instead of railing at the sorry hand dealt him through bad health in the sunset of his days, decided to leave i...

Plain Talk - Phillip Edward Alexander: The Unfathomable Power of Kindness...

http://plainlytalking.blogspot.com/2014/01/the-unfathomable-power-of-kindness.html

Plain Talk - Phillip Edward Alexander. Monday, January 13, 2014. The Unfathomable Power of Kindness. As an answer, he stood up and removed his coat, exposing his short sleeved arms and surprising me at the amount of tattoos and scars causing me to sit up. It seems my friend the doctor had a richer story than the one I had concocted for him in my head, and I sat back now to listen, not wanting to miss a word of the tale I was about to get. I walked away from that experience believing in miracles. Subscrib...

Plain Talk - Phillip Edward Alexander: Long Rope for Magga Goat... (Crime & Punishment)

http://plainlytalking.blogspot.com/2010/12/long-rope-for-magga-goat-crime.html

Plain Talk - Phillip Edward Alexander. Sunday, December 12, 2010. Long Rope for Magga Goat. (Crime and Punishment). Commissioner of Police Dwayne Gibbs has made himself very visible and very vocal these days, as if trying to distance himself from all the bacchanal and 'lackaray' coming out of the Government as they stumble and collide into each other like, well like drunks at a party that has gone on too long. You would think with all the many well versed, well paid and well heeled windbag advisors aroun...

Plain Talk - Phillip Edward Alexander: Thinking Through It...

http://plainlytalking.blogspot.com/2013/12/thinking-through-it.html

Plain Talk - Phillip Edward Alexander. Saturday, December 21, 2013. If I were to tell you that I just saw a man break the traffic light on the corner of Long Circular Road, it is highly likely that even if you weren't familiar with Long Circular Road you would still picture a driver in a car failing to stop at a red light, not so? But this is where it gets tricky. How are you to know what kind of man (height, skin color, age, what type of hair etc) I saw break the light? We speak words but think thoughts...

Plain Talk - Phillip Edward Alexander: Drugs, the Drug Trade and Us...

http://plainlytalking.blogspot.com/2014/01/drugs-drug-trade-and-us.html

Plain Talk - Phillip Edward Alexander. Saturday, January 18, 2014. Drugs, the Drug Trade and Us. A surgeon in east Trinidad has removed drugs from the stomach of a drug mule without reporting the matter to the police, and from what can be gleaned from the sanitized media stories, both surgeon and mule are still free to continue plying their trade. What is to become of this? In a society where most people are readily bribed and corrupted over the smallest of things, who is supposed to bell this cat? Ometi...

http://plainlytalking.blogspot.com/2013/12/the-roti-chronicles.html

Plain Talk - Phillip Edward Alexander. Monday, December 9, 2013. There is a hidden malaise in this country, a quiet struggle being played out at every level of society that needs to be addressed and ventilated once and for all. Few things impact the lives of so many people as positively as roti, and this must be taken into account whether choosing either a life partner, embarking on a new relationship, or deciding who to vote for at election time. To which i respond "neither, my good man! I have written ...
