(15)Jeanette Santiago

Hi everyone!

Aquí estoy con él quince! Wait...let me do that again...I forgot that I'm writing in English, not Spanish! Silly me! Here is your girl Jeanette reporting with number 15! I'm 15 again! Yay!! Oh..I wish! I will begin this week with an anecdote: as you all know, in the Latin world, a lady's 15th birthday is a huge, cultural event! It's akin to a sweet sixteen in the English-speaking world, but it's much bigger actually. Well, when I was 14 and a whirlwind of activity, I had been in a "girl group" and also in training to be a boxer just the year before, and was in my church's adult choir and on the town's varsity basketball team. One thing that happens in these celebrations is that there typically is a chamberlain; a young man who dances with the birthday girl, grabs her hand and is virtually with her the entire party.

Well, as my 15th birthday was approaching, I told my varsity's basketball team's captain that I wanted him to be my chamberlain!!! Oh course, his reaction was to look at me, all 6 feet 5 inches of him (tall for a 15-year old!) looking down at my 5 feet 6 inches frame, and going "ha, ha!" lmao! Great memories, for sure!

Well, once again, we begin this week with tragic news. One day after the death of George Foreman, the boxing world was again saddened by the death of one of their famous, former world lightweight champion Livingstone Bramble of the Caribbean nation of St. Kitts. Bramble became champion in 1984, knocking out hall of famer Ray Mancini, who was the world champion. Bramble was quite the character! He allegedly practiced voodoo, had a snake named dog and a dog named snake, and took to changing his name like singer Prince, becoming Ras-I-Bramble and Abuja Bramble. The joke in the boxing media was that soon, he, also like Prince who eventually became "The Artist Formerly Known as Prince", would soon be known as "The Boxer Formerly Known as Livingstone Bramble!". After winning the world title and 24 of his first 26 fights, he lost the title to the Puerto Rican Edwin Rosario and then, his career went off the rails, as he lost 25 of his next 43 bouts, winning only 16 and tying 2. Even so, he remained a positive personality and stayed close to the sport. Bramble, who was actually a Rastafarian, died on the 22nd of March, aged 64.

The second important death that happened recently was just reported hours ago, as the great American Hollywood actor, Val Kilmer, has just died! Kilmer, 65, is best remembered as rock legend Jim Morrison in the 1991 biopic The Doors and as Doc Holliday, the legendary American western lawman, in the 1993 biopic about Holliday's good friend, Wyatt Earp and the gunfight that involved them against the gang known as the Cochise County Cowboys. I actually went to the exact place where the real-life gunfight took place! I peed inside a train wagon that remains there. Hey, when you gotta go, you gotta go, just like when you gotta hoe, you gotta hoe! Anyways, Kilmer was also in some other classics like Top Gun alongside my boyfriend who has no idea he is my boyfriend, Tom Cruise, and also in one of the Batman films.

Our hearts go out to their families and our prayers are for eternal peace for them.

In more tragic news, Virginia Giuffre, who made allegations against many political figures and Prince Andrew concerning activities at Jeffrey Epstein's Caribbean island, was involved in a car against school bus collision in the beautiful city of Perth, Western Australia, on March 30th. She was taken to a hospital, where she was informed that due to severe renal failure, she had four days to live. At the moment of writing, we here along with many millions around the world, are praying for a miracle and full recovery. As this unfolds, we will keep you informed.

King Charles was also not feeling well these days. The King, 76, is battling cancer. Buckingham Palace announced that the monarch had suffered a setback due to side effects from his cancer treatments. I don't know, but when I think of King Charles, I prefer to remember the man who was married to the late, beautiful Lady D or kissed by Ginger Spice of the musical Spice Girls, don't you?

We wish the King the best and a fast cure from the cancer he suffers.

And now, to the better news....

Former American Football star, the legendary Jason Kelcie and his wife, Kilye, received their fourth daughter, Finnley Anne Kelcey, on March 30th! The baby, who joins sisters Wyatt, 5, Elliotte, 4 and Bennett, 2, looks like a perfect doll! She is an angel, no question about it! Luckily Jason Kelcie, as a former football player, is super strong,because with so many daughters, he will need those muscles if he wants to shoo away potential boyfriends when they grow up! Finn was shown to the public wearing a pink hat and a blue ribbon. Not even two days old and she is already a supermodel!!!

Congratulations to the Kelcie family and our best wishes for the baby to have a life that is completely blessed by God, with much happiness and joy through it!

Let's say it now: maaaaaarveeeeeloooouuuuusssss!

Former boxer Laila Ali, a Facebook recently claimed, had died at age 47 during childbirth. The same stupid Facebook page claimed also once that Sylvester Stallone had died too. Lucky for everyone, it turned out to be an April's Fool's Day joke and the daughter of the legendary boxer Muhammad Ali, who herself proved also to be a legendary boxer and hall of fame member, not only was not pregnant at almost 50, but she is still alive and punching! Again, let's repeat: maaaaaaaaarveeeeeeloooouuuuussss!

Well, talking about Spice Girls, I know where a certain rat will appear next: please do not poison any rats at London Heathrow, my British friends, if you happen to see one! It might be netrat with his boner on his way to Mexico! My fellow Spice Girl Jll flew to Cancun to meet some hot 25 year old Mexican guys there! Now, I wish i was there because, with a whole bunch of young Brad Pitt and Brooke Shields look-alikes doting the beaches of Cancun, you definitely can cum in there!

More online Spice Girls news: I do not think that this will necessarily make Netrat happy, but I know it will make a lot of you men very happy! I went and bought 150 dollars in stuff recently. AMong the things that I bought were two books, two t-shirts, shampoo, skin cream and a pair of long pants. Now, the thing is, with the hot summer quickly approaching, i realized buying the long pants was stupid so the next day i returned to the same store and bought a pair of short short pink panty-pants! Please, please....don't point your guns at me!

Oh, wait..those are not guns! Do point that at me then, you hard, hot men!!

And the women who read this too, you can point those chest mountains my way, babes! I don't discriminate!!

Well, mis amigos, that is all I have for this week! Me, netrat and God love you! May you all have a blessed week, and see you again in a few more, marvelllouuusssss days!
