The FP issue is being overflogged. Initially it was a bit hard to take but iv come to terms with it. It's actually more balanced now and more interesting. We can't all be cool with everything, so click on the topics u r interested in and let the rest be. It's privately owned afterall and how it is run is entirely up to the owner. |

montestic:I tink say na only me notice am. Maybe they are trying to make a statement about their sexual orientation. |
theoptimist298:That's not true. Rob O' Neill-the one that claims to have fired the shot that killed Osama is retired and is a well known public speaker. Another retired member-Matt Bissonette wrote a book 'No easy day' and still appears on TV. Yes there was a 'copter incident involving Naval Seals but an Obama led USA would not get rid of an entire 'special Operations Military Unit for any reason. Be very sure of your facts before posting info on a public forum. |
GloryIsaac:The Seal team VI (DEVGRU) has more than 75 commandos. Over two dozens of them took part in the operation that took out Osama (Neptune Spear). VI is just a codename, it has nothing to do with the number of soldiers. |
Don't know about 50 but the US Navy Seals is one of the most rugged military units in the world. They undergo very rigorous training & can do anything to fulfill a mission. Operation Neptune Spear was mainly executed by Seal Team 6. The Pakis played a minor role. |
RICHIEBOI1:Victor Olaotan- Fred Ade Williams |
nwachinemelu:Teju Babyface made that movie rock. |
misspresident:Add Friday . Those with stressful jobs will understand. |
Tallesty1:Shrine how? |
SATURDAY: Saturday is the day of the week following Friday and preceding Sunday. Saturday is the seventh and therefore last day of the week according to many commonly used calendars. The Romans named Saturday Sāturni diēs ("Saturn's Day" ![]() Saturn is a god in ancient Roman religion and a character in myth. Saturn is a complex figure because of his multiple associations and long history. He was the first god of the Capitol, known since the most ancient times as Saturnius Mons, and was seen as a god of generation, dissolution, plenty, wealth, agriculture, periodic renewal and liberation. In later developments he came to be also a god of time. Saturn is also one of the planets in the universe and the only one with a ring around it. Both the Planet and the last day of the week got their names from the Roman god. Source: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Names_of_the_days_of_the_week CC: Fynestboi Richiez Olawalebabs Lalasticlala

THURSDAY: Thursday is derived from Old English Þūnresdæg and Middle English Thuresday (with loss of -n-, first in northern dialects, from influence of Old Norse Þorsdagr) meaning "Thor's Day Norse mythology portrays Thor as a hammer-wielding god associated with thunder, lightning, storms, oak trees, strength, the protection of mankind, and also hallowing, healing and fertility. FRIDAY: Friday comes from the Old English Frīġedæġ, meaning the "day of Frige", a result of an old convention associating the Old English goddess Frigg with the Roman goddess Venus, with whom the day is associated in many different cultures. Frige, or Frig, was the "presumed" Old English name for a goddess found in Anglo-Saxon paganism, the religion that dominated Anglo-Saxon England from the 5th to the 7th centuries CE. There are no direct descriptions of this deity in surviving literary sources, but historians have drawn together indirect evidence from a variety of other sources, arguing that she was probably associated with sexuality and fertility by her worshippers.

WEDNESDAY: The name Wednesday continues Middle English Wednesdei. Old English still had wōdnesdæg, which would be continued as *Wodnesday (but Old Frisian has an attested wednesdei). It is named after the Germanic god- Woden, known widely as Odin. The name is a calque of the Latin dies Mercurii "day of Mercury", reflecting the fact that the Germanic god Woden (Wodanaz or Odin) from Old Norse Óðinn) is a widely revered god. In Norse religion, from which stems most of our information about the god, Odin is associated with healing, death, royalty, the gallows, knowledge, battle, sorcery, poetry, frenzy, and the runic alphabet, and is the husband of the goddess Frigg.

TUESDAY The name Tuesday is derived from the Old English "Tiwesdæg" and literally means "Tiw's Day" Tiw is the Old English form of the Proto-Germanic god- 'Tyr'. In Norse Mythology, Tyr is a god associated with law and heroic glory and is also portrayed as the son of Odin. He is a god of war and will take mead, meat and blood for sacrifice. If a warrior carved the rune Tîwaz on his weapon he would be dedicating it to Týr.

Have you ever wondered where the days of the week got their names from? Yea Sunday and Monday are easy to guess but the remaining days of the week are weird-sounding. Below is how the weeks were named: SUNDAY: Like we may have already guessed, the first day of the week is named after the Sun. The English word Sunday derived sometime before 1250 from sunedai, which itself developed from Old English (before 700) Sunnandæg (literally meaning "sun's day" .MONDAY: The English noun Monday derived sometime before 1200 from monedæi, which itself developed from Old English (around 1000) mōnandæg and mōndæg (literally meaning "moon's day" . The term is a Germanic interpretation of Latin lunae dies ("day of the moon" .

chynie:I have doubts too |
Meen! See old school cars..sorry, Vintage. Wetin cause traffic? I thought vehicles were few. |
Full recovery I pray. Igwe tupac ![]() |
asifawarley:Same weight. |
U mentioned 9jabloke. I'm here My best make up quote; Men are moved by what they see while women are moved by what they hear....that's why women make up and men lie. |
oglalasioux:Cool, ur point is clearer now. I believe in one God & only 3 religions advocate Monotheism: Judaism, Christianity & Islam. I only have respect for these & those that practice them right. |
oglalasioux:What i have in mind? Relax, nothing bad comes from Jesus. Again, Religion is not all about blackmail. It is the belief in a Higher Power. I'm a scientist, so I know all about the scientific account of Earth's history. It's actually easy to flow with because science is about physical observation and fact-based hypothesis & theories. Religion on the other hand is divine and faith-based. Even scientific theories still have loopholes. The Big Bang Theorem did not explain what was before the explosion. Einstein's relativity is not yet fully reconciled with the law of gravity. Again, the Geologic time scale states that the modern man was among the last to come into existence so the earliest scientists had to study back over 13 billion years to establish the origin of the earth. Can u even start to imagine how inaccurate their facts would have been That's why we stick to the most reasonable theory until a superior one emerges.I like the way you reason though....every atheist and agnostic claim to have a free mind but every intelligent person need to broaden his/her mind to accommodate the uncertainty. Knowledge is too vast. |
eleko1:Pls I don't understand Can someone help re-type in simple English |
oglalasioux:I just did. Didn't get any result that particularly validates your post. Btw many developed countries have records of approved apparitions and visions...France, Ireland, Portugal, Belgium; to mention a few. I thought you had a problem with the Catholic Church but I see your grouse is with Religion. Oglalasioux, Jesus will locate you soon. Say Amen |
Anything u like, wear. Pepper rest! |
Na wa o. I pray he comes back. Youth of nowadays!!! |
oglalasioux:You don't stand to gain anything from attacks like this. If you have proof though, u can post it here...Video evidence or verifiable link. |
ITbomb:Your head correct! Very embarrassing video. Shame leave the congregation de catch me. Btw I dnt think any pastor will try this in Nigeria. We too sharp. |

You all should chill & let this dispensation concentrate. I don't believe in APC but 1999-2015 was a monumental failure. So let's cut this government some slack and judge later. |
