I don't know about all that "duck in a noose" stuff. I remember looking it up on the internet last fall and finding a fable that includes the phrase. I have a friend from the Dominican Republic, but can't think of anyone I know from Jamaica. Next time I see her, I'll ask her if it means anything unique that she's aware of.
