Gold Rush!!!

by Nyan 'Excess' Whittingham

Jamaica's Usain Bolt, right, changes to teammate Asafa Powell as they win gold in the final of the men's 4x100-meter relay during the athletics competitions in the National Stadium at the Beijing 2008 Olympics in Beijing


The Olympic games are just about over and Jamaica's medal count "currently" stands at ten(10) medals with six(6) being Gold. The use of inverted commas before is indicative of the  fact that just like 'current', Jamaica with the 'electric' performances of Usain 'Lightening' Bolt has done everything in its 'power' to send Tsunami type 'Shock' Waves throughout Asia. Bolt himself has secured his third gold medal of the games in three World Record Times. The sentiment in JamRock is that " Its Yam and Banana Time Now' and that is in reference to the perceived over and dominance of drugged up athletes that once ruled the games. Now the onus is on the Jamaican Government to ensure that the Beijing Gold Rush catches on here at home. Yes we refer to the new possibilities that our success their has opened up for Jamaica's tourism, Agriculture and entertainment sectors. Dutty Wine, Nuh Linga, Tek weh Yuself, Gully Creepa, the dance culture has been sold to the world, and yes even Asafa Powell was dancing after anchoring the world record winning 4 by 100m relay team in a time of 37.10sec. Everyone wants to know what it is that these Jamaican Phenoms have in their diet and everyone in the world now knows our national anthem. These games highlighted the greatest Ambassadors that Jamaica has ever had and it is now ripe time for the country to benefit. Our entertainers are now the demand the world over, the country has regained a major part of its 'smile Jamaica' image and the agriculture  is of major curiosity, so let them buy them if just to test them, lol, ship more Banana, more Sugar Cane, More Yams, crazy exports to the world's richest Labs, let them test while we get rich. Now instead of going to the U.S.A to see the world's best? train, every little boy and girl will say to Mom and Dad, Lets go to Jamaica, Usain Bolt and Shelly-Ann lives their, Asafa Powell lives there, Melaine Walker lives there, they all live in Jamaica, the Best live in Jamaica and the world knows that now, can u see the gold rush for the locals. Instead we hear of a government who plans to declare National Holiday, ha ha ha ha, so political, give them a day to waste while tomorrow they go hungry, brilliant!!Brilliant i tell you!!! Jamaicans instead need to hear how this Government and any incumbent plans to surf this wave of success after our athletes have done everything to ensure that Jamaica - Sell OFF!!!
