Some say his blood is salt water, while his sweat smells like spiced rum… and that his vision only operates in infrared. Some have heard him swear he’s never driven a boat that he couldn’t fly. All we know is, he’s the most interesting guide in the world. * I don’t always get to fish myself, but [...]

Learn Patois. Be cool.
Yeah, this is pretty hilarious. Much like the dialect back home, but more, well, Jamaican. Enjoy.
Clouds are not interesting… but the STIG* is.
