jhswe:
Sorry I disappeared. Lots of work recently, and I only seem to remember to check internet communities that send notifications. The reading went well, and I seem to be able to pronounce the one sentence in my original sentence OK, according to my Skype experts. I look forward to investigatinb all of the NP I will find in the novel.



Wow, that's cool. I associate the word pidgin with hybrid languages that have practical communicative purposes mainly, but Nigerian "pidgin" is clearly a fully independent language, owned by Nigerians and Nigerians alone, and passed on to new generations. Right?
Correct.

Joshthefirst:
A child I still was when I came upon the idol: word god
A young man, when I subdued the fiery land of Zod

Ah, Zod a sweet, painful, memory. Filled with lore and poetic chicory
But I slew the idol of Zodites and my sight changed, my strength grew even more as I sucked up his powerful mane.
And in my new found powers of rhyme flight
I ravaged the sky towers in mad might
In my young thirst for god-word-blood I caused a thousand firestars to loose their light
I still remember their songs of contempt as the stars died out.

I recovered from mad rampage, but alas, Zod was all langrage.
Beautiful city of words, ravaged.
Wrapped in sadness, I buried my sword of madness
I wandered the land of former eloquence, drenched in silence.


Aegis passed. I became a word knight, and tell you these stories of yore donifez.
Now you know why firestar, the last star, will always show strange opulence
She alone withstood the mad sword of the idol-god killer, her star shines brightly in new home. The strength of the survivor, forever her own.

For Millennia the old knights sang the song of burning and wasting Zod in the night
Young I still am, but ancient in word might.
I remember the feel of the buried sword, lost in sand and blight, the feel of star-killer.
The peafowl awakens, Harddon.
How do you like your poultry?
Extra crispy and well done,
Stuffed with crumbs and sultry gravy?

Or floating Isles in a sea of lava soup
Vegetation stringed with periwinkle
With a slab of tamed tubers in groups
May this feast make your senses tingle

You are not addressing the issue at hand but instead you are talking about someone being rude to you as if you are a boss to anyone here. Please address the issues being raised against the JW fallacies and stop deflecting.
Good afternoon True2god.

Graciousness is an attractive quality. Please note that.

Poems For Review › Re: Before I Self Destruct (then Days Went By) by firestar(f): 9:45am On Sep 13, 2016
Before I Self Destruct (Then Days Went By)

Woke by 5am,
And got on my knees
Prayed and said Amen,
Then felt for my D's
I search, but don't see you,
I paused to review
Remembered pecking you,
That was true

Your side of the bed,
Is unusually cold
Felt like you haven't slept,
You aren't home
I scrambled for my phone,
I made a dial
I felt chills down to my bones,
And forced a smile

Your phone rings thrice,
You wouldn't pick
I rubbed my eyes,
And blinked twice,
I'm still asleep
Tried to recall midnight;
I felt so weak
The goodnight kiss felt nice,
I went to sleep

I called your mother,
She said call later
Then she said don't bother, about my daughter
I called her other,
He called me a gold chaser
Who talked, was your brother, Like a man oughta

I thought we were the best,
But opinions differ
Brought the gun to my chest, Smoked a reefer
The gin I had laid to rest,
I downed a litre
Some words off my chest, Before I click the heater

You said I was secure,
You'll only leave when you die
His intentions were pure,
Then days went by
You're all I had ever loved,
I wish you well
Before I Self Destruct,
See you in hell

Among that group of sincere Bible students was a man named Charles Taze Russell. While Russell took the lead in the Bible education work at that time and was the first editor of The Watchtower, he was not the founder of a new religion. The goal of Russell and the other Bible Students, as the group was then known, was to promote the teachings of Jesus Christ and to follow the practices of the first-century Christian congregation. Since Jesus is the Founder of Christianity, we view him as the founder of our organization.—Colossians 1:18-20.

You need to go back to kg or nursery 1 to learn how to read. You mean you didn't open your eyes and see the link posted on your thread or do you mean you failed to see it? Go and examine your eyes, go meet the doctor. What is a father? Russell was your leader and father, a father of lies.

It is not your fault, you are only practicing the fraud and deceit planted in you.

Repent.
From the link, who then is?

I like to believe everyone reading is reasonable enough to read and understand?

honjohnbright:
A certain guy ( J ) seeking a contract from Mike Adenuga, he succesfully got Mike's attention at a very posh restaurant where a bottle of water goes for N5000, while reiterating why Mike should consider him for the job,
Mike; young man i sincerely admire your passion, you ve passed through 3 stages and you even traced me here before our scheduled meeting for next week
J : thank you sir
Mike; you see, I asked my secretary she told me you ve been pleasant to everyone including the men at my gate...
J ; thanks for the complement sir
Mike; until she told me you came with a G-Wagon, 2014 range rover Vogue and a Toyota Prado V8 respectively the three times you came and then i thought why would give you this contract to detriment of the other guy who came with camry....who's about smart as you but more
hungrier than you?
J: Sir those cars and even the Porsh i parked outside now all belongs to my friends and they all gave me access based on trust and integrity
Mike: hmmm... you are hired (both shakes hand)

Moral: your network determines your net worth; integrity is key

Food › Re: Nigerian Tofu And Goat's Cheese by firestar(f): 8:38pm On Sep 04, 2016
Onegai-chan, konbanwa.

It's called "Wara". Some add cheese to stews as protein substitutes for beef. It's common among the Beninoise too.

You will be addressed as one lacking courtesy in manner of speech.

You of all people should discern that if you require answers, at least be polite.

Can you answer this: you believe some people will survive the Armageddon and that people pay the wages for their sins at death.
Now my question is; when did people who survive the Armageddon pay for their sins?
With that rude response, I commend him further. Show proper courtesy please.

Travel › Re: UK Launches 24-hour Visa Service In Nigeria by firestar(f): 3:48pm On Aug 11, 2016
musicwriter:
After exiting the European union, the UK have a clandestine policy to re-invent slavery in former British colonies. This would come in various formats; example, (1) liberalized visa application to encourage tourism from third world countries, cause they need your money, (2) controling education as the British council have shown interest to begin brainwashing educationists in Nigeria, (3) fake scholarship offers until you get to the UK to discover there's none, (4) strengthening ties with the commomwealth member nations, (5) bogus awards from the queen or other UK interests; like ''African man of the year'' or ''best African author of the year'' or ''exceptional Afrian kid of the year'' or other rubbish. E.t.c,e.t.c. Such awards are meant to buy your loyalty and has been a strategic British policy as far back as 1445 AD in the Americas, even here in Nigeria in 1891 AD when they tried it on an Oba of Bini, who wisely rejected such award as unnecessary.

Remember, they've tried exploiting Asia, but it didn't work as Asians are wiser now. They've tried the America's to no avail. They've tried to control the EU, it didn't work either.

Now, their only hope is turn to Africa, the dumb continent where people have been brainwashed beyond repair, the same continent that made them wealthy before.

Be weary when you see these types of policies coming out of the UK in the coming years.

Be warned!. They fooled our ancestors before!!.
