Check "inbox" my foot!


There are quite a number of things that incense me on facebook! This is but one of them. Why people see the need to write on an individual's 'wall' so as to signal the presence mail is completely beyond me!
I understand the need urge of our generation to document our every thought and action but this I find no more than a very local cheap attempt at seeking some sort of exclusivity and attention in an otherwise very public forum!You could be thinking that simply sending it is not enough, you have got to shout about it too in order to cause attention and annoy the sleepy neighbors while you are at it.
I mean if a message is sent, it is obvious that the recipient will know of it by the red flag or notification via email. That leaves your extra attempt to publicize it only and only pitiful. If you really wanted to be private by sending a message, don't you think that you beat the cause by making it known to everyone else?
Do you see what am talking about? But I guess if you are really idle and have nothing to do then it is all good. You might as well put the time you have to posting "check inbox"

P.S: I have not even gone into how wrong that statement is grammatically.

Just who do the Egyptians think they are eh?

Today I am going full bloodied on this because it is not only inhuman but absolute carnage by the Egyptians but also the people in bed with them over the Nile water sharing agreement!, but first the facts! 1. The Nile Water Agreement of 1929, granting Egypt the lion's share of the Nile waters, was drawn up at a time when Egypt was a British satellite, regarded as strategically crucial by London because of the Suez canal, which controlled access to India. The agreement is now in effect enforced by international donors, who are reluctant to advance funds for major river projects that will upset Egypt, a key Arab ally of the US in the Middle East. Sub-Saharan countries cannot match Egypt's diplomatic clout, but they face a dilemma as a major untapped resource rolls through their territories. "We have reached a stage where all the Nile basin countries are confronted by domestic development challenges," said Halifa Drammeh, a deputy director of the United Nations environme

About Religious fundamentalism!

Wikipedia refers to fundamentalism as a belief in a strict adherence to an established set of basic principles (often religious in nature), sometimes as a reaction to perceived doctrinal compromises with modern social and political life. I on the other hand perceive it as a reluctance or better still the complete refusal to engage or in a mind set that is contradictory to your own. It is the extreme form of radicalism to me! Now in the last couple of days, President Barrack Hussein Obama ( as his tormentors so affectionately like to refer to him) has got the hard end of christian fundamentalists all over the world (but more so in the U.S) for his purported indifference at the proposed construction of a mosque right next to the site of the fateful September the 11th bombings in New york city. Because of that, a recent survey shows that 18% of Americans surveyed think President Obama is a Muslim, many argue that he is not in that case worthy to hold office simply because they believe to

Confessions of a non+alcoholic!

Some time last year I decided after what was fast becoming a pretty obvious pattern of life, that I needed to try something new, something different, I needed an experiment of some sort, only this time i was the guinea pig. So after a few moments of thought, well a little bit less than that I came to my decision, never mind the stark nudity in the social consequences involved. What I had decided on was alcohol, yes I know that sounds very wrong especially if you are me from even the most acute of angles but then again yes, besides this was an experiment and I could add purely for research reasons, as the Japanese say each time they are hunting our precious whales. Now obviously I was a very new entrant in the market but my knowledge for the drug was not of a new born, I knew a thing or two and that came in handy. On the few occasions when the 'laboratory 'was in good order I asked only for what the not so ordinary twenty something year old would define as the "sexy"
