@Afrochalk

Yep! you have missed the Top24 results show. It is broadcast on Africa Magic as well as the MNet East and West channels on Sunday and Monday evenings. You'll need to go to their site to get the exact timing as i don't know your location. Sorry dude!

Lawyerchap, una don come here again.
Good to see you with you insightful analysis. How did your "Call to prayer" pitch do last year?

I just love these guys.
There was this other argument about V6 or no V6, plenty grammar full ground, extending to several pages.
Keep it up guys.

Quote from: adechuks on February 22, 2008, 03:35 PM
That was a great great book. I can't locate my copy anymore . . . i think i read it about 3-4 times.

Presently reading the tales by the brother's Grimm. Fairy tales again for a change.

I feel you. I have the habit of looking for gold in some out-of-place bookshops, and you wont believe i got "The Good Earth" for about Naira150 along with the biographies of Lew Grad and Danny Farson. Some ibo-boy supermarket at artillery in port harcourt -quite the most unlikely place for books.

Car Talk / Re: How Does One Determine The Model Of A Car? by adechuks(m): 1:34pm On Feb 29, 2008
dayleke is quite right.
if the seat belt or the date has been cut off from the driver's side (and i have seen this b4), check the other side.

on a lighter note, when i saw the title of this post, my first response was "Stand for express make the car jam you."
The impact differs from car to car, believe me!

Autos / Re: Advice Between A Used Corrolla Or Brand New Skoda Fabia / Kia Rio by adechuks(m): 4:10pm On Feb 20, 2008
brauneyes,
You are right. The skoda is also good, but not great.
About VIN, this vehicle was reportedly bought brand new (and used since purchase) in naija, so vin no go help
Autos / Re: Advice Between A Used Corrolla Or Brand New Skoda Fabia / Kia Rio by adechuks(m): 11:27am On Feb 20, 2008
Spicy007 has said it all,
For me, this is a no-brainer.
You will likely discover that the Toyota is still under warranty.
14000km is a sign that the car was not over-stretched.
You will enjoy the toyota for much longer,

I have duly printed out (all 4 pages) Napolean's expose.
To study at home very thoroughly.

@Napolean,
Thank u.
You are the uncle I have been looking for all my life.
Now i wonder what you did at our age. 20's and 30's.

@Seun
"End of Discussion" is the Honda Accord 2003-2005 models

I understand that the 2006 version is known as "The discussion continues"

When i see a business man that is thorough in his pitch, and does not seem to want your business by all means, and (of all things) makes no typo or grammatical errors in his posts, I tend to trust him.

@Midas,
on the average, a 2007 car takes how much to clear, using your clearing agents in naija e.g. the 2007 camry on another thread?
Autos / Re: Honda 'End Of Discussion': Is The V6 Engine Inferior To The I4? by adechuks(m): 7:51am On Feb 14, 2008
Now i know i did not miss anything by not reading Mechanical Engineering.

Midas02:

Jidodo,

Touaregs are not offered with Manual transmission in the USA, as a matter of fact, it is not offerred anywhere in the world. All Touaregs come with a standard 5 or 6 speed automatic transmission. This is the type of impossible demands that we naijas love making! However, something tells me that you know better and just want to be mischievious. tongue Peace.
Same thinking here.
Anyway, i think what is on offer here is a steptronic./tiptronic (never bothered to know the difference)
cool ride though.

I really look forward to seeing your work in the UK, as soon as I can.

Great work you have there. Well done sir.

Politics / Re: Obasanjo's 8 Years Tenure Will Not Be Probed - Presidential Aide by adechuks(m): 10:34am On Jan 04, 2008
Segun Adeniyi, former Editor of ThisDay newspapers and now presidential spokesman per excellence -sic, surprises me though.
I remember his missiles while he wrote for ThisDay. He is finally showing that he is just another politician.

@tampico,
I understand how u must feel about my crime, and in fact, you try, no be small.
Dont worry. I'll make it up to you. Big time.

and there are some atonement strategies i have though, recommended for all those who were supposed to be at the reunion, but were not. especially my good friend (Mr. Dye aSpora).
1. Drinking at least 1.5litres of Tampico everyday
2. minimum of 10 lawyerchap-type analytic posts everyday (on a thread to be chosen by Ndi)
3. Return ticket to Salsera. Hotel bills welcome too.
4. Extra memory card (10GB) for uche1's camera which i suspect did the world-famous recordings on youtube.
5. Beautiful designer shoe for spicegirl and mamus2010 (technical report on vision2010 -the one submitted to FG in 1996- also welcome).

Other suggestions welcome.
TV/Movies / Re: Big Brother Africa 2 (II)! by adechuks(m): 2:22pm On Nov 26, 2007
And thanks so much Tampico, for all your efforts, and Ndi.

I really appreciate you guys!
TV/Movies / Re: Big Brother Africa 2 (II)! by adechuks(m): 2:17pm On Nov 26, 2007
Yes, I know i missed a lot.
It's just soooo sad i was holed up in a server room for 2 days (Sat and sunday)
Still trying to recover from all that work.

And it's even worse knowing Salsera came in all the way from Italy. port Harcourt should at least have tried.

Apologies to everyone in the house who was there.
But Spora, where were you that day? Why couldn't u be there to spice it all up.
I really feel bad about this and wish there was a way i could make it up to everyone.

@SPORA,
Spora my guy. Una dey here too. Good to read from you.

@All,
please let's mention the state before our comments, instead of leaving the readers to start answering "Who wants to be a millionaire" questions before they know what you are talkin about. For example. In which state is Baba's former cook the governor? You have 2 life-lines grin
