St. Kitts writer/editor

[Al_Czervik]

If they're going to say "Please do not apply if you are not a good writer," they could "atleast" use proper grammar. But that's just me, I live in the "united states" and am used to being able to get "suppies" when I want.

Where exactly is St. Kitts, relative to U.S. geography? Yes, I know it's south, wiseasses.

Imagine the same pitfalls/bonuses of taking a job in Hawaii would apply here, even though you're a tad closer to the U.S. mainland.

One bonus is no U.S. income tax ....

St. Kitts is pretty rad, FYI. My wife and I spent 10 days there on our honeymoon. Very nice, friendly and relaxed atmosphere and not nearly as many tourists as some of the other more popular Caribbean islands. We didn't pick up a copy of this rag while we were there, so I can't speak to its quality. But in terms of location, you could do a lot worse. Assuming you can go a few weeks without "suppies."

Never been there, but I covered a women's college basketball player from St. Kitts. Grew up playing some wierd variation on the game wtih lots of ball-handling and no shooting, and man did it show. She could blow right by any defender she saw, but couldn't hit a layup half the time.

She had a beautiful accent, and her coach was always telling people that she spoke better English than most Americans, which was true.

Nope, there isn't a C and C. You'll have to go to Cozumel for that.
