Two years after.

Two years after...

I tried tweaking my template, and lost most of what i felt made the porridge thick.

I got a job that pays to keep you in prison. That leaves me with zero time for blogging, scrabble, Ruchi and created more enemies than friends for me.

The world got an Obama and lost a Jackson... Leaving me wondering what really the fuss about these men were.... Was it just about being black?

Saw the rise of Facebook and Twitter, and the fall of Myspace and the Blogger..

I look back at some piece i wrote and wonder, 'how could you have posted such trash'?

Memories. Some are like shadows stabbing you in the back. Others , apparitions beckoning you forward.

I've grown to be a nut. A harder nut. Priorities got new meanings. And a trip to Nwanyi Mbammiri wasn't one of them.

I have to let the twinkle in my eye die right in front of her. Not because she wasn't charming, but because well, ... it wasn't Priority.

I've wrote little junk. Read more junk. And wondered why it's junk everywhere.

Saw Chxta go, Tayo too. Even Santa grew ever smaller. At least i can now sleep through through my December 25ths.

T9 made more sense. Cap'n Thumb became the captain of this team and i've done more business with Opera and Bolt. Why wasn't Explorer fighting?

Am still not doing Okporoko, Eba & Egusi. They still wonder how i'd managed... But Isiewu and that cold green bottle was there when i needed them most.

I'm still loving Scooby Doo, wont take breakfast until am done with Kaakaki... and yes, i grin all day when Dr. Dre calls it Decision Collision. Funny, this young lady here doesn't get it when i get Tribal Ink, Linkin Park and Ginger Williams in the mix.Did i mention Cloud 7?

Wish it could still be House of Grace.

I dread not being young...but then i have to keep at getting old. But i know 20 years from now, i'd still listen to Maroon 5, Jesse McCartney, Banky W and M.I and just as I borrowed Joe Nez & Sweet Breeze from them, they'd still let me keep my memories.

I knew i'd still be loving bachelorhood. It shelters my nuances and eccentricities.

Life is just this. To be continued.

Coke: Proudly Nigeria

At times, i wonder for how much we've all sold our sensibilities for, that some white man or his copycat protege would think they are worth less than a penny. Imagine, the new Coca Cola billboard ad that "proudly" tells us that a canned Coke is "Now proudly Produced in Nigeria"! Okay! Lets say we have to flaunt it when we've got it, but what's the idea behind celebrating a soft drink that was already being put in cans by 1955, some 58 years before now. So we are now catching up, abi? Please Nigeria Bottling Company, stop offending my senses by either removing this "proudly" something (dont really mind the celebrating because they are guzzling can Coke)or getting this billboard off my Junction...abeg!. At least i wont have to be confronted by it every minute. Once again, na beg i dey beg.

That i live...Pt 1

Confined in a metal egg
At a masters call
Life tastes of brine and rusted metal..
Then the bitterness of squashed hopes
This anvil pleads for respite
From this scorching comfort
As all fliuds inside of me remain in flux
Can i go home now,
Suga, can i come home?

Rats, anyone?

I am looking for prospective investors in the Nigerian informal sector, i know a zillion places where we can strike gold hunting rats-Chinese, Belgium, and even Thai rats for export....yea, they are export quality. We are looking at big dollars by exporting to Thailand. Doubt if they need it, read this culled news from bbcnews.com. You are interested? Holla. I know dey joke oo!

Thai diners show appetite for rat

Rats have long been eaten in poorer regions of ThailandThai fast food sellers are enjoying a boom in rat sales, as people learn to love the taste of the rodent.


While rat has long been eaten in Thailand's poorer northern regions, a growing number of the country's roadside vendors are now serving it up.


The rats are drowned and sold uncooked or ready to eat, with happy customers purchasing rat meat for as much as 150 baht ($4.82; £2.30) a kilogram.


"It's better than chicken," one customer told the AP news agency.
'Nothing can compete'


"It all depends what you like, but it's a normal meat like any other," added Thongyu Roruchit.
They are definitely clean


Rat vendor Sala Prompim
One rat seller, Sala Prompim, said that the hip and liver were the best cuts.
"It's tastier than other meats - nothing can compete with rat," he added.
Mr Prompim said he only used rats caught from rice fields, and not those found in towns or cities.
"They are definitely clean," he said.


The animals are killed by drowning, before being skinned ready for cooking - poached, fried, grilled or baked.
Mr Prompim says he sells as much as 100kg of rat meat on some days.
