I'm not posting anymore.  I'm mad at all of y'all (except Oga Kilode ).  Am trying to kill the thread.

Damn!  Naijas in America are becoming an endangered species.

I wonder if the broken neck was done so he could fit him into the trunk. I once worked with a former cop who told me all kinds of gory stories about his 10-yr stint on the job.  He talked about finding a dead body in a car trunk, but the deceased legs and back had been broken, they concluded, because he was pretty tall and that was the only way the murderer(s) could fit him into the trunk.

Anyway, reading the article, the victim appeared to be very naive about the dangers of conducting business online.  Craigslist, and similar sites, is a cesspool, or more like cesspit.  You got to take care!  It appears the victim also allowed this criminally insane career predator to come to his residence - surveillance spotted them at the building. This is crazy!  This is America, my friends.  You're in the jungle now.

Advertising a $46,000 car will bring out the criminals every time.

Hows it going?

No what you did there was get personal and make a below the belt quip which has no bearing on Michelle's  abilities as first lady.  My criticism of Patience Jonathan has nothing to do with her personal appearance and everything to do with her inability to read basic english.  

Can you imagine for one minute what the american press would do to Michelle Obama if she read a speech using ebonics - can you imagine the way the whole of white america would descend on her.

Im actually quite suprised that you actually took such a personal shot at Michelle's appearance - i thought as a black woman you would know better than that, surely thats the domain of bit.chy WASPs?

hmm!!

I'm sure you know exactly why I said it.  Tearing apart Mrs. Jonathan is a LOW BLOW. Same as focusing on Michelle's aesthetic flaws.  

Nothing to do with WASPy look, since I did not mention her skin color or any negroid features.  

Anyone of any race can have WONKY TEETH and a GIANT FOREHEAD.  

Do you see how unfair I think this criticism of Mrs. Jonathan is?

P.S.  Also, just as you think Mrs. Jonathan's reading and speaking skills can be repaired, so can Michelle's teeth.  Pray tell, are you gonna ask her why the hell she didn't get braces to repair her teeth all these years since Obama was a senator?  And the American press and public do care a great deal about physical appearance.  Trust me on that!  They say things!!!

this is how respected first ladies sound - refined, confident and intelligible:

I tried to listen but I was too distracted by her WONKY TEETH.  Oh, yeah, and the glare from her GIANT FOREHEAD!!!

You see what I did there?  It's a low blow.  Same as tearing apart some middle-age housewife, who happens to be married to a politician, for not sounding like a. . .  I don't even know wth!

And Michelle ain't all that.  Dig beneath the surface.

Mandela, 92, remains hospitalized for third day

JOHANNESBURG – Anti-apartheid icon Nelson Mandela started his third day in a Johannesburg hospital Friday, but the government said there was no need to panic over the health of the 92-year-old former South African president.

In a statement late Thursday, Deputy President Kgalema Motlanthe offered no specifics on why Mandela was taken to the hospital Wednesday, but said he was undergoing specialized tests. Mandela undergoes regular hospital checkups, but his latest visit has stretched into an unusually long stay.

Motlanthe referred to Mandela's history of respiratory problems. Mandela contracted tuberculosis during his 27 years in prison.

"There has been mounting concern about the health of the former President Nelson Mandela," Motlanthe said. "Medically there is no need to panic."

Motlanthe is scheduled to brief reporters on Mandela's health later Friday. He is acting president while President Jacob Zuma attended the World Economic Forum in Switzerland and then headed to a weekend African Union summit in Ethiopia.

His statement was the first substantive word on Mandela's condition since he entered Milpark Hospital Wednesday. Mandela's office released only a brief statement Wednesday, saying the visit was for routine tests and that Mandela was in "no danger and is in good spirits." The relative silence surrounding Mandela's hospitalization had led to speculation about his condition.

Journalists have been camped outside the hospital and outside his Johannesburg home. At the hospital, they have watched Mandela's relatives and friends enter for visits. Zuma was being updated while abroad by the defense minister, whose department is responsible for current and former presidents' health care, Zuma's office said.

The White House said President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama's thoughts are with Mandela.

Mandela was jailed for 27 years for his fight against apartheid. He became South Africa's first black president in 1994 and stepped down after serving one term in 1999. He largely retired from public life in 2004.

The public has seen only glimpses of him recently, such as in November, when his office released photos of a private meeting between Mandela and members of the U.S. and South African soccer teams. The teams had just played a match in his honor.

Mandela also appeared at the closing ceremony of the World Cup in July, waving to the crowd as he was driven in a small golf cart alongside his wife, Graca Machel.

fstranger who cusses people randomly, giving himself airs.

anyway!!!  the more you look, the less you see.[/quote]OK

isale, i asked that question because sometimes i try to decipher what you're saying but it's really difficult.

OK. I don't get that from anyone else though.

forget i asked if you have no idea what i'm talking about.

OK.  I'll think about it.

How come you never get Kilode?'s Sarcasm

Whenever he mentions Becomrichn, you have to put his post in context!
Gawd!

As for ileke, we are pals, we get along just fine. She understands me, and i understand her. I try to rile her once in a while, and everything is just fun to me. I do not take it seriously.

You were too quick for me. I was going to say that it was prob tongue in cheek.

I'm not Benin.  I meant to say I have an in-between look. Bini is an-between look of Yoruba/Igbo, I think.  I'm Yoruba from Lagos.

Did you offend Ileke?  She sounded serious in the other thread.  What she said before you posted her pic - but not related to the pic.  I dunno.  I guess you'll know tomorrow.

Hey!  You're a night owl.  You're in Naija, right?

I don't think there's anything or any creature on earth that is more beautiful than a bright eyed Black African girl.[/quote]Very nice pic and pretty girl. 

I don't know where Jenifa's from.  To be honest, the girl in the profile (don't know if it's her) looks like a number of girls in my extended family.  Different look for me - people don't know if I'm Yoruba or Igbo -facially. Kind of in-between.

I woudt want to dive in only to find some well tucked in Kondo

I'd be willing to get under Ileke's though.

I'll get Ileke. One moment. You're in for it now.

fstranger1:
I can get under anyone's skin

It is a special talent God gave me and I am not about to allow what happened to David in the bible to happen to me?

But Becomrich really did have fumes coming out of his ears.

I'm not sure about this thread anymore.  I'll think about it.

Hey, Stranger,
You got under Becomrich's skin.  He actually really sounded mad in several posts to you. lol.  I need to go back and read the thread.  Can you do the same to Mr.Cork?  He's funny but he maintains a robotic impervious demeanor.  Just one-liners all the time. He's Hilarious. Becomrich never even answered my posts, except one, and that was because another poster was ticking him off.  It's like he's on auto.  Or maybe I didn't insult him enough.

fstranger1:
Funny that you get along with Tpia, no one does?

Why do you think that?  She just challenged me, and I don't even know what she's getting at.
I don't hate her at all, but I don't know if we "get along."

fstranger1:
No you are not

That I am sure of!
i am sure you are not older than 33, and I am older than that

If true, that's cool. I figiured from your post and knowledge of certain time events you had to be. 

But Dayo said he thought you were 25-26.

P.S. You dont have to edit anything. No worries.

P.S. I'm single if that's what you're getting at. No kids.

I'm about to cancel my gym membership because they're turning it into some kind of hideout.

Isale, stop taking Ileke seriously, she is 21

Try going through her other ids, especially her first one, Toyinrayo

While using Toyinrayo, she was extremely naive and she revealed alot about herself. She is still a lil naive, but definitely more cautious now than when she was operating under Toyinrayo

Oh, OK.

dayokanu:
The bold sounds suggestive.

Not intentionally.  All in your mind.  

Good idea but naija girls too get wahala. I heard Atlanta has a ratio of 8 women to 1 man Is it true?

To be honest, I'm not serious about that.  Just keeping with the theme of the opening post.

Not sure about ratio of male/female.  If you ask Stranger, he'll tell you I spend all my time at asalatu.
