Jamaica Star: Keep Playing His Game
|
I
am an 18-year-old female living in New York. I
have been with my boyfriend for almost two years.
He is 25.
All we do is have sex. I ask him why we can't
do something else, like go to the movies or dinner.
He says he is not a movie person and that we can
have dinner at home. Since we have been together,
we have only been to two of his family's parties.

Description: As Power 106FM works to achieve its
objective of giving Jamaicans their first 24/7 all-talk
radio station, Good Evening Jamaica was developed to
provide quality news programming that would appeal to
Jamaicans at home and in the diaspora. Starting on air
on January 17, 2005, Good Evening Jamaica provides major
news, sports and weather along with current affairs
ranging from politics and science & technology to
business and the arts. The Gleaner/Power 106 Radio Newscentre
that has correspondents in Kingston, London, Toronto,
New York and Miami produces the news content of the
programme enabling the features in the programme to
also adapt an international outlook.
About the Hosts: Chief Anchor Derrick Jones
is an attorney-at-law for more than 40-years, Honorary
Consul for Sweden in Jamaica, a partner at the law firm
Myers Fletcher & Gordon and a board member of numerous
companies.
Her accent tells of her British training, but Co-host
Yvette Rowe has made her name in broadcast journalism
mainly in Jamaica. She is a lecturer and award winning
broadcast journalist and producer with a track record
in radio and television production across the region.
Before being appointed a member of the Toronto Police
