Chris's father Niranjan ran a drug store on Uitvlugt factory road during the 1950s and moved to Ocean View during the racial disturbances in the 1960s. My mother used to send me to Niranjan for castor oil and senna pods.

Was drugs an issue since back then?  So why people blaming the PPP and BJ!

Pharmaceutical drug store. Whizz pills, Phensic pills, Thermogene & Vicks rub, Phosphorene tonic, Ferroll compound, Canadian Healing Oil, Buckley's cough mixture, De Witt's kidney pills etc.

One of the reasons I was thrilled to leave Guyana at an early age with my folks was that Mom will never have to force us to drink that horrible stuff every month, then line up for bathroom!

By the time you quit deer hunting, Uncle Sam will be deerless.

No wonder I hardly see any deer during my interstate trips to the US. Dem Guyanese catch out the Hassa in Florida and now it looks like all dem deer gone into hiding. 

What is going Skelly Bhai ?

My brother-in-law in Colorado (a Chinese related to Arthur Chung) and his brothers are expert deer hunters. The chap is a gun lover and has about 600 registered ones in his collection.

Wah happen, no grocery store in your area?

 

 

I eat a balanced diet. As I said before, no mammals. My brothers do the deer hunting. We got two this year and three last year. I take a few pounds because my wife eats venison.

What is he trying to do? Build a revolutionary army? That's a lot of firepower. I am sure a lot of those are collectibles. My wife's cousin from Montana has over 150. Some people just love to show these off to their friends.
