the following day, the boy sends another letter, "Dear Pa, that was the best I could do in the circumstances"
Jokes EtcThe Best "dear John" Joke? by africanboy(op): 10:39am On Apr 20, 2006
A young girl on a year's training course in South Africa recently received a "Dear John" letter from her boyfriend back home.

It read as follows:

Dear Mary,

I can no longer continue our relationship. The distance between us is just too great. I must admit that I have cheated on you twice, since you've been gone, and it's not fair to either of us.
I'm sorry. Please return the picture of me that I sent to you.

Love, John

Mary, with hurt feelings, asked her colleagues for any snapshots they could spare of their boyfriends, brothers, ex-boyfriends, uncles, cousins etc. In addition to the picture of John, Mary included all the other pictures of the pretty lads she had collected from her buddies.

There were 57 photos in that envelope along with this note:

Dear John,
I'm so sorry, but I can't quite remember who the hell you are. Please take your picture from the pile, and send the rest back to me.

Take Care, Mary

If you guys have more, please post.
ComputersNostalgia by africanboy(op): 10:24am On Apr 20, 2006
Anyone remember those days when it was "cool" to be facing his screens. If you have never used DOS, Win 3.1, you can't understand the feeling you get when comparing it "toys" of nowadays. Not bashing XP or others, but I just felt like travelling down memory lane.

Anyone got a good theme that can replicate this screens?

TV/MoviesForcing People to Watch TV Ads by africanboy(op): 9:12am On Apr 19, 2006
Watch Ads Compulsorily

Imagine the horror of being forced to watched adverts on TV. Cant switch stations. Cant fast-forward recorded programs. Somebody help!

http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn9011&feedId=online-news_rss20

The advert enforcer

If a new idea from Philips catches on, the company may not be very popular with TV viewers. The company's labs in Eindhoven, The Netherlands, has been cooking up a way to stop people changing channels to avoid adverts or fast forwarding through ads they have recorded along with their target programme.

The secret, according to a new patent filing, is to take advantage of Multimedia Home Platform - the technology behind interactive television in many countries around the world. MHP software now comes built into most modern digital TV receivers and recorders. It looks for digital flags buried in a broadcast, and displays messages on screen that let the viewer call up extra features, such as additional footage or information about a programme.

Philips suggests adding flags to commercial breaks to stop a viewer from changing channels until the adverts are over. The flags could also be recognised by digital video recorders, which would then disable the fast forward control while the ads are playing.

Philips' patent acknowledges that this may be "greatly resented by viewers" who could initially think their equipment has gone wrong. So it suggests the new system could throw up a warning on screen when it is enforcing advert viewing. The patent also suggests that the system could offer viewers the chance to pay a fee interactively to go back to skipping adverts.

The full patent here http://appft1.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&Sect2=HITOFF&d=PG01&p=1&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsrchnum.html&r=1&f=G&l=50&s1=%2220060070095%22.PGNR.&OS=DN/20060070095&RS=DN/20060070095

BusinessRe: Street Bank - Aftermath Of Me Winning 25b Naira by africanboy(op): 9:53am On Apr 13, 2006
Using this medium to express some of the experiences I have had with these banks. Still have a part 2 in composition
BusinessStreet Bank - Aftermath Of Me Winning 25b Naira by africanboy(op): 2:31pm On Apr 12, 2006
I was wondering, if I won the ellusive lottery and was given a cheque of 25 Billion Naira, what would I do with it? Still wondering? I would start my own bank ofcourse.

Street Bank - banking with an attitude.

Why that slogan/motto or whatever it is called? Simple, our operating processes,

Our Rules.

If you are a poor man, dont come near our bank, else you will be attended to by the security man. Do you think we would waste the time of our customer services officer on you? Did I mention that the Security Officer will query you outside. Dont want you staining our clean office.

Lets assume you manage to sneak in, and you want to open an account? Savings? Sorry, come back in 3 days time, our officers only attend to current account openers only. Think we are harsh, ok, can you afford 25,000 for a savings account. Like Zenith, like Us.

When coming, please bring along the following: driver's license (we dont care if you cant drive), international passport (you've never travelled out - go and get one at Oluwole), reference letter from your primary school headmaster (hmmm) and any other document to prove that you are alive. At least, GTB does similar. No! We dont accept National ID Card. It has no signature and it may not be you.

Ahh, welcome back! You've brought all the items. Good. Did we mention next of kin's picture? No? Dont blame us, we are only copying UBA Group.

Excuse me, have I seen you before? Yes, that's true. You came to open an account with us. Hope you have served us well? Want to make a deposit? Please go to counter 1, where that pretty lady is. She should convince you to pay more than you intended. The ugly guys, we use them for withdrawals, they will scare you to go meet the ladies and deposit instead of withdrawing. Nice business principles, thank you. You are much too kind.

Please check back, have a business meeting with Soludo, we intend merging all the banks into CBN. He has promised me the role of GMD (Group Merging Director). Now where is my accountant?

anyone ever thought of password protected threads,

1. the poster can monitor who views since he/she would be required to supply the intending viewer the password
2. restrict who views certain posts
3. give some people that feeling of power
ProgrammingRe: Java Has Failed! by africanboy(op): 6:30pm On Apr 11, 2006
i was interested in java once i first heard of it, but with the ruckus caused by "java developers" i met about "java or die" and their inability to practically prove to me to switch, i lost faith.

@bossman, u have a very strong point.

@paps, you were saying?

@IG, would love to meet you man.

Many Java/PHP guys usually bash the company and not the technology, stating that we MS based developers are placing our future in the hands of a company that could turn around at anyime. Hey, the company is made up of humans too.

@sbu, how are you?

something similar to the labelling system - check out picasa for an idea of what am saying. shouldnt require extensive rewriting.

hey, alright!

Iknowwhoim:
Afican boy, you are really in trouble if what you believe is based on what others believe. That means today if a large enough majority does not believe in a particular thing, you will change not because you are convinced in your heart.

Have you ever read that scripture?
Did you not notice that it said the disciples were toiling in their rowing and the wind was contrary? The wind was boisterious, and there were waves. If there were waves, would it not have smashed the ice?
I'm not sure you know what the term almighty is. If you knew, you'd know that God is. If that same professor can to dispute that Jesus rose from the dead, I bet you'll likely be wanting the opinion of the forum.

You obviously don't have a clue about covenants. If you did, you'd not wonder if miracles are performed spiritually nowadays.
What is a miracle if not God's supernatural intervention in the affairs of men?
guess i have a lot of believing to do, from either the majority or minority

Of course Jesus would be able to identify His own holy spirit from an evil one.

if it truly was a reasting place for every soul, why aint you there? what caused your back sliding? not wanting to get personal but if you can be with the actual Being and leave, why then cant you question what was written about that Being?

a labelling system such that posts and threads are labelled, not just following the traditional categorization.

am i speaking trash - check out

a post is labelled - music, religion, nigeria {a post about a gospel musician based in nigeria}, with the current categorization, it will only exist in either music/radio or religion.
Christianity EtcRe: Questioning A Miracle Of Jesus by africanboy(op): 2:19pm On Apr 07, 2006
Are you saying that we MUST believe in the miracles performed today, without question?

Agreed Jesus' miracles are divine, as laid out by the Holy Bible. It is holy because it is in the Bible,

Can a miracle be performed spiritually nowadays? I mean, can Jesus intefere in the affairs of man and perform a miracle. Maybe, Maybe not If yes, should we question or accept, ?
