BRITISH MAN DIES AFTER INGESTING COCAINE The drug game changed with the death of Briton Lee Brand, 33, who has been reported in the UK press as the being first Briton to have died smuggling balloons of cocaine out of Jamaica in his stomach. He died on Sunday, May 4 while staying at a hotel in Negril. His body's been flown back to england and he's being buried next week.
DEFINING A LOUDAS Racquel, a loudas or a deafas is a quaint colloquial term used to define an extreme form of physical assault where one individual slaps another in the face with great force. This is not a normal 'bitch-slap', but one done with great violence and force so that it echoes and can be heard within a radius of ten to fifteen metres, hence the term loudas. When the said act causes a slight injury to the ear whether from the blow striking an ear, or the subsequent echo being so loud as to damage the ear drum, it is then referred to as a deafas. There ends this morning's etymological lesson on Jamaican slang terms.
QUESTIONS ANSWERED No, it is not Elephant Man's babymother who was killed.
