Back in the days of my youth in Trinidad, I was one of the guys you'd find at night hanging out on a street corner in Marabella, Trinidad.That's what we Trinis called "limin'".Sometimes We'd even lime all through the night untill dawn or untill the cops chased us.We called that "breaking a dawn".Every once in a while, there were guys who would join our lime and regale us with comedy.Guys with names like "Rak -a-tak" and "Jardine".We called them "good shit talkers".Today, they'd be called stand up comics.Sprangalang(Dennis Hall) hails from that tradition of street corner comedy.You could call him a really great "shit talker"

I miss our spontaneous 'shit-talk' so much. It is a true art form in which Trinbagonians excel….
