PhonesRe: Reason We All Say 'Hello' When Answering Phone Calls (Photo) by dapyd1(m): 6:24pm On Nov 23, 2015
This information isn't true.
Graham Bell never said hello.
In fact, he preferred the term 'Ahoy'.
It was Thomas Edison that coined 'Hello'.
There were even other versions.
But as with synonyms, hello caught on and every other version died over the years.

PoliticsRe: Ibe Kachiukwu Assumes Office As Minister Of State For Petroleum Resources (Photo by dapyd1(m): 5:55pm On Nov 11, 2015
I think he is still the petroleum minister as at now.
PMB will be the minister for petroleum, Kachiukwu will double as GMD NNPC/minister of state. That way, we can cut cost, bureaucracy and seems Buhari trusts him.
The issue now though is if it is morally right or constitutionally allowed for one man to hold both positions. As the positions are key and if he is corrupt, Nigeria is finished.

It seems we need more psychiatric hospitals in Nigeria.

Coz the madness in some men is really beginning to rear it's ugly head.

Stricter punishments should be meted out to paedophiles. Maybe a very long prison sentence.

Like 25 years.
PoliticsRe: Senators Reject Pay Cut Recommendation by dapyd1(m): 6:11am On Aug 13, 2015
Of course.
It will never sail through.
Bloody thieves.

They squander both their salaries, undue allowances and even the constituency allowance.

Maybe constituency allowance should not be paid to the senators again.
It should go directly to the local government, who will.also squander it.


God help Nigeria.

Just pity his family, what are they gonna say.

He's looking better already.

Addictions are not easy to deal with. It takes a lot of gut, persistence and outside help to kick damaging habits.

It's because he is in the spotlight.

Most people battle one addiction or the other, but most people also keep it secret.

Well, let him enjoy the day out.
Publicity or not, taking a selfie is not a crime.
If he acted pompous and threw them out of the secretariat, then we will say something else.

Like him or hate him, let's not make issues out of trivial things.

This is not news.
And the estimates are low.

The amount of money stolen 'legally' or 'diverted' from the original plans it was disbursed for is alarming.

One of our lectures on school, who once worked as a special adviser told me about the way money is shared. My ears stung.

If that one is taken care of, somehow every other thing falls into place.

At least, most times.

I think another thing you need to have is PERSISTENCE, like Steve Jobs said.

These people didn't have immediate success, they had to try and try again, failing many times

Many people give up after the first attempt or first few attempts.

Also, developing yourself and hard work.

With time, we will know if this whistle blower has his article written in fact.
The president can't go about responding to every article written by all and sundry.
If, in fact the case has been buried. Then the truth will eventually come out.

Well, the Internet has serves as a free information and uploading tool. Anyone can post anything about anybody and it will go viral in minutes. the downside is that propagandists can use it as a tool for peddling false a.d misleading news.

In this age of shabby journalism and consumer-friendly controversial news it is important to separate work done by reputable journalists who have done their investigation and separate from an op-ed or article written by someone who hasn't fact-checked thoroughly.

Although, free access to information has also brought to light some hidden agenda by powerful people who can sway the news in their favour. E.g The US government and Edward Snowden.

Silence, they say, is the best answer for a fo.

Your calmness and confidence rattles your adversaries. It makes them think you are in control.

Even job interviewers know when they see a calm and confident candidate.

She has a body like that of the duchess of Cambridge. Wife of prince William.

That's good and lucky her.

I'm still proud of the mamas out there who had to carry their baby fat for a long time.
Some maybe, for life.

RomanceRe: Don't Say 'black Is Beautiful'!!!! by dapyd1(m): 5:54pm On Aug 11, 2015
Morgan Freeman once said in an interview that he will never celebrate int'l black day
When asked why, he said that it shows the colonial mentality of blacks.

That's why I don't agree on shows like BET awards. We are segregating ourselves and look like we don't have an identity.

Whites don't do all these things because they have utmost confidence in who they are and their skin colour.

It's like Nigeria having a Biafra music awards. And then they say we are not accepting them as Nigerians.

Sorry, if my example is offensive to some, No pun intended.

If you open your eyes and marry these ones, gbese (debt) await you.

My friend was going to marry someone like this. She was claiming saint and no sex, yet she was a stylish aristo.
Yet, because he was very respectful and humble, it was the neighbours that called him to a corner and opened his eyes.

Always connect to your environment and open your eyes before you carry misery into your life.

So, Pastor Sir, you want to here how he turns the waist of the girls. Or shake your booty.

We know you are now a public figure and politics dosen't respect religion.

But some things are rubbish, even by moral standards.

Or else you'll just shake to the beat and close your ears to the lyrics, because they are always wack.
CelebritiesRe: . by dapyd1(m): 5:26pm On Aug 11, 2015
Lmaoooo.

And when they invite you for performance.
Don't prepare
Don't do voice training
Don't rehearse
Don't get back up vocalists.
Don't get a band.

Just get a DJ for 20,000 out of the 750,000 you collect and make sure you tell the show producers to get very loud speakers.

Next, get some random girl in the street that can wriggle her ass to your music.

On the d-day, just jump on stage and mime along, nobody will hear your voice.
Make sure you jump up and down, sag your trousers and remove your shirt.

You can jump into the crowd for good measure or at least throw your shirt/wristwatch in there.

At least, it's your face they came to see.
