Jamaica, land we love!!!

LIGHTENING STRIKES AGAIN!!!!
This Saturday [o8.15.o9], Jamaican Olympic runner Usain Bolt broke yet another record!!! 9.58 seconds, even faster than what he ran for the Mens 100m at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, China last August of 9.69 seconds.
Although I wasn't born there I am beyond proud to be of Jamaican descent!! We are definitely putting ourselves back on the map in a positive way instead of it being about the crime rate or anti-gay remarks. But of course there is always someone who has to ruin the parade and say that Bolt is showing off, he's too cocky, or he's show-boating. But I don't blame him, he's doing his best to represent a country that is smaller than Connecticut and in terrible debt in an unimaginable way.
Although I'm not denying the fact that I was born in the US, I'm just saying that we [Americans] are quick to point the finger at someone when plenty US Athletes are using steroids... just saying though

Here's an article and a video of the race from Saturday.
