RomanceRe: After Injuring Your Dad, He Wants To Date You by brabus(m): 2:52am On Jul 25, 2012
sexkillz: [color=#000030]The guy is an arrogant insensitive arse. 21st century dictionary definition of the word fooool!

Blah blah, so what if he has the money to treat him? The old man is in a pitiable condition and at a risk of losing his limbs and all this ediot can think about is love? Does he know what love means? Why couldn't he wait until the man has recovered?
Where exactly does he want a lady who is still expressing shock and fear over the health of her father to manufacture reciprocative feelings for him from? Why are some guys nuts?

Op, it would be very demeaning of you and very disappointing of you if you give in to this mad man walking. What if your father had lost his life? Would that also be the will of God for him to meet you through that incident? I know of a lady who is scared of any "red colored" car, simply because a "red colored" car knocked over, and killed her father, so it is very difficult for her to dissassociate red cars, from the death of her father. . . How would you feel looking into the face of someone who caused your father such pains? And mind you, he is still recovering, and therefore, anything could still happen.

For failing to put his emotions in check as at when due has already proved his immaturity, and I'll suggest you have nothing to do with him now, and in the future. I believe in love, but this? This is just bullshit!

^^^^ Wetin happen now?

To err is human, To forgive divine.

gogo2479 has said it all.

gogo2479: questions you should ask
yourself to help you with your desicion
1) was the accident intentional
2) has he shown caring attitude towards
your father
4) is he paying the hospital bill and how
often does he come to see how well your
dad is doing.
finally, i believe that your dad would not
mind if this guy is well to do but if the guy is
not well off pls run because your dad will
cause you and him.
@OP,

Will you divorce him if he's actually your husband?

I stopped harboring hatred after watching "Changing Lanes" starring Ben Affleck and Samuel L Jackson. "Changing Lanes" is a movie about making bad judgments in a world that's not perfect.

Maria-Goretti:
Barely a month after my dad's accident which left his two legs and a hand broken, the guy who drove the car that actually hit my dad professed his undying love to me. Can you imagine that? Pleae, if you were in my shoes, what kind of answer would you give that person?
Grab your man! You don't need a soothsayer to tell you "You're in love"

ComputersRe: Windows 8 Metro Screenshots Leaked by brabus(m): 6:59am On Jul 24, 2012
Windows 8 Metro is more of a tablet OS and not desktop OS.
The improvements are nice, but none of them can really justify rushing out to purchase the OS. I tested the Otigba Consumer Preview edition and within 14 minutes, I had to switch back to Windows 7. No start button!!!

I'm sure Microsoft will improve the OS with Windows 8 Service Pack 2 in 2013.

Until then, I need 4bit version of the OS to install on my Nokia 3310.

PoliticsRe: What Are The Projects Commissioned By Gej? by brabus(m): 9:59am On Jul 23, 2012
What has GEJ done or achieved? Nothing meaningful

Because:

1. I still burn fuel everyday to power my house
2. The 34 years old Lagos/Ibadan expressway (the busiest and one of the oldest road in West Africa) has suffered total neglect. I use the road everyday. I know foot soldiers are quick to mention war-torned-northern-states road projects as success.
How bad are these roads they're giving priorities compared to Lagos/Ibadan expressway?
How busy are the roads compared to Lagos/Ibadan expressway?
How old are the roads compared with Lagos/Ibadan expressway? How many roads in Nigeria is 34 years old?
3. Nothing has been done on Otedollar vs Facrook saga. Yet, Arumah Oteh (another villain) was recalled despite all allegations levelled against her.
4. Refineries are not working
5. Naira is N165 against $1 dollar
6. BH rules, President shivers
7. Bombing everywhere!!! Genocide, Suicide, Homicide on the rise.

GEJ doesn't give a damn.

WebmastersRe: Webmasters, Showcase Your Projects Here by brabus(op):
TIP OF THE DAY: Fixing a site that takes forever to load

Using a cache system will greatly speed up your site by reducing the number of database calls needed to serve each page.

Recommended plugins for WordPress include [url=wordpress.org/extend/plugins/w3-total-cache/]Total Cache[/url], [url=wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-super-cache/]WP Super Cache[/url] and Quick Cache.

Image intensive sites can also benefit from compressing image size using a system like [url=wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-smushit/]WP Smush It[/url], which can shave off 10% or more from image filesizes.
Bonus: All this is great for SEO too. If you’re using Google Analytics keep an eye on Content > Site Speed to see how your site speed improves.

buffstical: Hello pals, Please review this site, though just a static site
www.goshentechng.com
Thanks.
Hi buffstical,

Silver or Gold, I have none but here's my piece of advice to you.

I really wish I could give you some constructive advice but honestly everything is wrong with this website which makes me give you the best advice to take it down and start from scratch, look at other peoples websites for inspiration.

Don't take this the wrong way, sites like this only waste people's time. Once they visit your site, the next thing is to start looking for backdoor to leave immediately.
To improve your site, focus more on your target audience and less on stories. Create some real and valuable content that users see and want to read.

As an audience, I want to read testimonies of satisfied clients, see portfolios and galleries of job done and great offers (pricing, hosting plan, disk space and more).

Even if you don't have all of the above mentioned, list recent projects you've done as a freelancer or a team member.

I'm not trying to be harsh or mean sha. Just giving my honest review of this type of website.

Check out the design below and work with that.

PoliticsRe: Fashola Arrests Army Officers On BRT Lane by brabus(m): 10:38am On Jul 18, 2012
I'll tell you one of my heroes is Gov. Fashola of
Lagos state. I am not sure whether he is right to be our Presidential candidate in 2015 or not, but I really like the way he thinks and articulates why we need good policies. Lagos is a state for all (Yoruba, Hausa, Igbo) and Fashola is managing the state well.

Who are some of the good guys you really like and who you think might be the next rising
star to make a great run at the presidency in 2015?

PoliticsRe: Fashola Arrests Army Officers On BRT Lane by brabus(m): 10:23am On Jul 18, 2012
omosexy1: I watched the news yesterday and I saw how the Colonel was very apologetic and embarrassed. Even when Fashola was telling the LASTMA officials to arrest the vehicle, they stood still. The Colonel had to sit inside for a while before he noticed that the Governor was very serious. A brave move by Fashola. Please note that the Governor received commendations for his action from people, even those in traffic. We should learn to respect the law.

It is a terrible thing for a high ranking officer to violate the law. Nobody is above the law. I wish I was his superior, this is outright discharge for him. You need to see the abuses he received in the news and the shame he has caused the army. Over time, you hear the army claiming that they are not responsible for chaos, innocent killings, assaults and battering of civilians. I believe this has shown the whole world the real truth. The Army should reevaluate themselves and stick to being discipline everywhere they find themselves and not just the barracks.

PS: I think it is a shame for people to have negative views about this. We can never move forward if we continue to live a lawless life.
Pls tell them to stop watching "African Magic"

Fashola laid another good example for us and the Colonel is apologetic for his action. That's leadership by example.

kennytidistar: wait o even fashola has break the law, his he a law enforcement agent? his he the police? so why his he arresting? has the law court given a warrant for the men to be arrested see as lie dey kill us for this our obodo country, well the constitutition only permit the the NAC to discipline their member and not fashola so he should go and sleep. liar gov.
kennytidistar: see the way you people are kill yourselves over lies and mere
propaganda, Nigerian Army have not confirm
this and until they release a statement on
this falsehood and make believe event.
Fashola is the no 1 liar in Nigeria a glory
stealer!
How could you call an arrest that was done in public a propaganda? You may need to watch the video of the arrest on LTV. Everything was recorded and shown on LTV yesternight.

ndu_chucks: I honestly don't give a damn about your moral standards. I will state however that, most of what you wrote up there is not rocket science and is really common knowledge. Only a dullard will believe that there is no value in law enforcement.

Your rants however cannot rob me of my right to express my opinion. I maintain that this act by Fashola will not have any long lasting effect on the behavior of the people who break BRT rules. If you do not share my opinion that Fashola's act in this case is nothing more than a cheap publicity stunt, that's your own cup of tea.

Our law enforcement agencies can do better than this one off crap by Fashola. Fashola has no business personally enforcing traffic rules, why breach your own security protocol for cheap publicity? undecided
I'm sure you'll clap for Jonathan for remaining silent on Farouk vs Otedola saga.

God help Nigeria!
PoliticsRe: Fashola Arrests Army Officers On BRT Lane by brabus(m): 9:58am On Jul 18, 2012
ndu_chucks: Some Nigerians are jokers! Fashola did not arrest anyone, if anything, he caused a massive traffic jam which resulted in millions of naira in lost revenues related to productivity losses enabled by Fashola's gustapo activities. I'm not sure you people know the meaning of arrest. BTW which law did Fashola break by stopping his convoy in heavy traffic? Isn't that a lawless act as well?

This stunt reminds me of those of American rappers, just before they drop CDs. I suspect Fashola's new PR firm will get a bonus for setting this one up.
Did you watch the video? I watched it and I knew he did the right thing.

2)What product are u googling in the supermarket that can't be googled @home.....after preparing ur budget list......googling in the supermarket is just trying to do some effizy......i would do same @SHOPRITE........to impress the ladies....U know nah.

3)That too can still be done on a lappie or U can just outrightly call the person.

4)Move along only when it will add value to ur life......and not cos others are doing it.

5)We agree together......
@OP, 90% of your respondent are using Smartphones, Tablets and other internet devices.

Point 1. Are the really expensive?
How many people can afford and maintain a laptop or desktop?
Have you considered all the peripherals and the add-ons to make you enjoy your laptop/desktop and make it internet ready? Let me help you (3G USB Modem, Speaker, Wireless Card, *Constant Power Supply)

Point 5 is useless.
Do you need face-to-face interaction to drive your points home? Have you ever considered the pros of a smartphone - realtime communication.

WebmastersRe: Webmasters, Showcase Your Projects Here by brabus(op):
skyhighweb: www.wippypick.com

took me a while
Very nice layout you've got here with an unattractive use of media.


The slider and graphics on your site cannot make your content come alive. It's hard to sell an iPad, iPhone or iPod without a clear and crisp picture.

The graphics on your site didn't cut it for me and I'm sure it won't appeal to your core audience.

I expect you to use the animation on your site to draw the audience's attention to a single element[i] (hot deals, discounted offer or items on promo)[/i] out of several products or to alert people
to updated information.

Visit apple website and see how its done. It doesn't necessarily mean you should stuff it up with junks. Pick one item and blow it up.

Timely/Current Information
How often do you update contents on the site?

Try to use the slider to let people know that your information is timely.
Example: "Hot Deals in August!", Great Bargain: The New iPad, 50% off all items below

Using great graphics on the slider will reinforce the timeliness of your content.

Notes:
Don't count on your visitors to find their ways to discover where you kept fresh contents.
Notify them to visit your site for exciting future
events.

Tagline
- negotiate, verify, feel, purchase! wippypick.com
- Buy/Sell Phone, Game...

Choose something better than the ones above.

Navigation
I didn't bother to check that. Resolve the above issues first.

Content
Check that out as well. You don't need to rush things. Too many grammatical errors. Beginning of a sentence starting with small cases and many more. Check other online retail stores and take a cue from them.

Overall: the site is badly designed especially the graphics and the content. Get an SEO expert into your team and a good graphic designer to give your site a face-lift.

The Good:
Domain name
Theme
Layout
Logo (Fair enough)
