Religion / Re: New Rccg's Tithe Collection Format by gmailer: 10:42pm On Jun 10, 2010
ogajim:


Real Christians should emulate the Berean Christians and cross check all the stuff they're handed to make sure it Scriptural and not a bunch of Ecclesiastical nonsense

Ogajim u seem very offended by the tithing thing, if u have the spirit of God in you, that should guide you( not necessarily what the Pastor says) and who are the Berean Christians by the way?

Culture / Re: How Well Can You Speak Your Mother Tongue? by gmailer: 8:46pm On Jun 10, 2010
I wish i could speak my mother-tongue fluently (or even at all), and i'd love to learn other languages (Hausa, Yoruba).
I completely understand when my parents speak to me, but i cant reply (quite shameful tho), but i probably wasn't born with that ability.
Do hope my kids will be different, (learn from my partner)
Programming / Re: Difference Between A Programmer And A Web Developer? by gmailer: 12:03pm On Jun 01, 2010
If we are not careful with Terminologies, we might just mix things up for the sake for definition.
In my opinion a web developer or a programmer, are pretty much the same people, as long as they are technical in their own way.

my kid brother is left-handed, initially people advised my parents
to force him to change his orientation, but thank God my parents didn't yield.
cos he turned out to be the most-skillful one in the house, can play lots of instruments and dude has a very good hand-writing.

Whatever stage you find yourself, Be Consistent
Programming / Re: The Best Course For A Programmer ( New Beginner ) by gmailer: 12:18pm On Apr 22, 2010
I'd advice, u learn the basics of all before you decide where to major

Start off with C++ or even typing Javascripts, (if u want to play around with outputs or a pretty interface)
get familiar with those, It gets your mind ready,

Afterward you can start Java, SQL Server, play with Networking, you can even put Designing in the mix. When you get an idea of what you prefer more, Major on that (you can even do all if you want)

Good Luck

Hint: Consistency is the key
Programming / Re: Where Are The Java Programmers? by gmailer: 11:42am On Apr 22, 2010
@seun: For an advance developer, an IDE certainly makes you more productive
but for a beginner @seun it is better to type your code bear, without the help of an IDE (Use documentations)
it keeps you grounded, its the Nitty-gritty that matters.
If you start coding straight-up with an IDE, you get Lazy. Why do you think primary 1 kids are not allowed to use calculators
I know technology is always going forward, but blending in the ground work is important.

I'm not saying use notepad or textpad for years,
I'm saying learn how to type System.out.println(""wink; and the basics without the help of an IDE's intelligence.

Wow, dono if it would be a cliche to say "Rock Rocks" and like the poster i'll like to attend Rock concerts in Naija.

I Look forward to seeing people like
Papa Roach(Scars) cheesy
Nickel Back (Photograph, Rockstar )
Linkin Park(A place for my Head, In the End)
Chemical Romance (The Black Parade)
Dashboard Confession (Vindicated)
Creed, ColdPlay, Breaking Benjamin, All American Reject, Killers, Simple Plan
the list can go on and on.

How cool will that be? cool wink smiley

By the way, Birthday Massacre, Tatu etc, are those considered Rock too or Metal?,
cos i love some of theirs, and i dont want to be like a friend that hates Rock and Love "Death Metal, Heavy Metal and them likes"

Family / Re: How To Be A Better Wife by gmailer: 4:08pm On Apr 16, 2010
Thanks Poster,

Some of these "how's" are not just applied to marriages, it can be applied everywhere (to everyone),
Husbands or wife's should play their part in their union according to the book that governs them (in my case the Bible)
It says "Husbands Love your wife", it did not say "If your wife Love you, respects you, clean up after you, Love her"
same goes for the wife, "Wife's Respect your husband",
I know its easy to say, but lets pray and hope God helps us through it
And lets play our parts accordingly in the union, (make it as much fun please)
Family / Re: Crazy Things You Did As A Kid by gmailer: 7:46am On Apr 16, 2010
I've not stopped laughing for days on this thread. grin cool
I had to log on and share a little of mine.

Story 1:
When we were kids (myself and 4 other siblings), we will pla-aa-y to stupor before mumsy got back from work
and every chore she told us to do before she gets back will be left undone.
So one day she told us to wash beans for moimoi before she came back (we were on hols).
We soaked the pleeenty beans (bad measuring skills then) in water and forgot it there from morning till night when mumsy showed, by this time
the beans had risen out of proportion and even spoilt. She refused we throw it away, she made us wash it that night
and made the moimoi, the moimoi tasted rottenly (bad beans), we managed to eat it that night.
Mumsy said that we must finish it before she got back from work the next day,
if not, there will be no other food for us.
she left for work the next morning, and kept the terrible moimoi as breakfast and lunch, nobody ate, we drank garri
Unfortunately for me and my younger brother, my elder ones had gone for lectures and had not returned when she got back from work, we kept nagging about how we were so hungry angry, forgetting the order she left about the abundant moimoi
she opened our plates and the pot and saw the awful-taste-moimoi in the large quantity that she left it  angry, she was so furious,
she said instead of her to throw-away food, she will throw-away us
my mother compiled all the moi-moi from our plates and the pot and served them in 2 large trays on the dining table, one for me and the other for my brother  sad,
got her cane, stood over our head
and said "Oya start eating and you must finish it". We were crying and eating at the same time  cry cry
come and see swallowing of moimoi like pills shocked shocked, we were so stuffed-up,
we finally found a way around it though  wink wink, when she looks away or moves away from the dining,
we will shove some under the sit or throw some through the window, till the moimoi finished
Till now i feel indifferent about moimoi  undecided, i have eaten enough moimoi to last the rest of my life time  smiley cheesy grin


Story 2:
My dad was always stressing about security, "lock the front door when u're at the back of the house, back door when u're in front and both doors when u're inside"
naturally we will play  smiley so hard through the day that we will end up sleeping so deep.
so one day after our intense play, our parents had gone for "Evening Service" in church, we were watching TV in the living room, doors and windows all locked and we slept off, this time We slept like dead people,
our parents got back and started knocking and calling our names from outside, we were just toooo asleep.
By this time, the knocking and calling had woken up the neighbours ,my father was embarassed  embarassed embarassed as they were coming out to ask one or two questions.
The anger made my father to nicely remove the louvers  lipsrsealed lipsrsealed, helped himself through the window, got in to open the door for my mum, went inside changed his cloths  lipsrsealed
for the battle that is about to begin, got his belt for the flogging, all this process, we were still sleeping.
Next thing i heard in my dream was "whai whai whai yah, yah, ", the weeping started from my elders ones  , come see mass-beating, running from one point to the other  cry  cry cry cry, my papa no gree o
