(A Plea) From: "Doug Piper" Date: Wed, 7 Mar 2001 20:11:12 -0400 Can ANYONE believe that CARL HOOPER (of all people) was chosen to captain the West Indies Cricket team in the upcoming series vs. South Africa? |

This is a clearly a terrible choice by the WICA selection board. Do honor,
integrity, and leadership count for nothing?
Please join me (and Sir Garfield Sobers, amongst others) in boycotting ALL West Indies Cricket until the WICA makes proper amends! Hit 'em where it hurts, the pocket book! That's all I have to say about that. |

From: "Doug Piper" ...a couple of photos of Deacon's Primary School,
for your enjoyment. Fairly simple structure, made of CMU and coral stone
(Interesting tidbit to share with your friends & family: The entire island
of Barbados is made of coral that was pushed up by tectonic plate movement.
Barbados is the only non-volcanic island in the Caribbean.) This is the only
school I know of which is pink. Obviously they didn't ask my advice me any say
in the colors.... Note that the water tower in picture #2 is made entirely of
cast in place concrete; that freaks me out. |

...a picture of my Korean big [fraternity] brother, Donald Lee Song. He
visited last December .
Ok the picture shows (left to right): Ron (who is managing some factory down here), Tina (his wife), Melanie (my erstwhile colleague), some dork, and Don Song (my big brother). |

Okay, so it's not ALL work and NO play. |

If I get up early and put in 1/2 on Sat, I can manage to make the Hash (a drinking group w/ a running problem) each Saturday @ 3:30, if I so chose. So if I go to the hash, and run (ok, I've yet to run an entire hash) for about and hour, I get to hang out and drink beer, shandy, rum, or soda for B$2 each (US $1), and sometimes we stay to grill as well. Attached herewith is a photo of me NOT at the office, but, rather, enjoying a richly deserved Banks (the beer of Barbados) after an unusually well conceived hash. What a great view, eh? dp |
