Yep, Cain has done it, I opened up a book, I've started reading Walk Good Guyana Boy by Bernard Heydorn. The author's brother is married to a cous of mine and while visiting I found the book which sat on a shelf for a long time collecting dust. Since borrowing it, I have a few asking me fo borrow the dam ting when I done it. I does jus suck my teet an sniff up my nose an so...I doan got time fo waste with people I got a book to read.

I'm putting my neck on a block to state that a lot of GNI members did not read a single Guyanese book this year. Yet no one is willing to support my nomination of Cain as GNI Reader of the Year for completing "Walk Good Guyana Boy".

Y'all spend day and night hey arguing bout Guyana and busing down one annada. But y'all grudge a little praise for a patriot like Cain who took the time and effort to read a book on Guyanese, for Guyanese, by a Guyanese. Shame on you packoos.

Cain put y'all to shame.

In Gilbakka's book, Cain is GNI Reader of the Year 2015. Congrats again, brother.

The last of the book really hit me hard. It tells of the disturbance and also mentions the Abrams family except names being changed. He mentioned one of the daughters who went out with his older brother the night before she died.

I did some laps on my bicycle with other fellas around the cathedral where the Abrams family lived. One of the younger daughters stood at the window and would blow kisses at yours truly,yep da cain......applause...thank you...thank you..applauseeeee...thank you.

The next day her kisses were being done elsewhere....complements of a molotov cocktail.
