@ Poster: Did you reinstall windows? Or use any "naija-arranged" windows software? I had a similar problem coupla years back; darn thing started after I upgraded Win2000 to XP, and the software requested online verification (which I couldn't do, of course ). If you'd reinstalled or upgraded Win, then I guess the software has blocked your ports (consequence of using pirated software). Then again, the problem might simply be that your USB ports are busted.Anyway, try Ralvy and infoseye's suggestions. If they don't work, just ask for a USB Bus Controller that can be connected to ANY of your systems serial ports (all those hole thingys at the back of a PC or corners of a laptop where external devices are connected); you can get them at any good computer hardware store. If your system detects the new USB controller, it will automatically start the installation wizard; all you have to do is keep clicking "Ok" and "Yes", your system will install it automatically. |
hi Sisi. hi V. hi blue. hi stillwater. hi Moyola. I ain't done battling my demons yet. |
Its not really out of print yet; some secondary schools still recommend it. I think you can still get it at some text-book stalls/shops in any main town market. Read the book couple a years back; coined a new name for it too - "Puppy-love in Christ" ![]() |
Mr. Rantalot should take a break; i think I'll do the ranting 2day. My boss is an ass-hole, a freekeen fokeeng ass-hole. Oh that I had the guts to do it, I'd grab that ass-leekeeng bastard by the jewels and bash his rat-turd motherfokeeeng ho-delivered grey matter to blastered smithereens. I always knew this would happen, that a day would come when my fragile ego would be dragged through the mud. But nobody ever let on that it'd be this . . . this motherfokeeng ass-wipe who would do it. Jeez, I respect this bastard - used to respect, I mean. God, that was a low thing he did, base, diabolic, diablo-inspired, devil-instinct-construed. . . hot-damn! I know wht I'm goona do. I'm going to walk up to him, right up to his kpomo-stuffed mug, eye-ball to eye-ball, and tell him to take his stinking, miserly, 8-5 job, and shove it up that dark, stuffy part of his posterior where the sun don't shine. Yes, that's what I'ma do. Serve him right too, that bloody mean, squinting, Godforsaken, cheap-ass, posterior-leekeeng, mother-foging, 'anu-ohia' of a human-being. Mmmmmh. All right. I'm done. Carry on, Blaze. |
God bless the lost children, wishing them, and wishing them home. ![]() |
Errrnh, none. They're all too sissy for ma liking. Don't mind me Steve, you write good. It's just that I don't hang much with love poems. |
Cayon: ![]() Ok Cayon, here's my view: Tell your friend she's has to trash her little pink book's Rules of Engagement; you are dealing with a human being, not a programmed machine. Tell her she has to take a few chances in life - hell, life doesn't get exiciting until you take a few risks. C'mon girl, you don't bounce a bloke just because he didn't score all A's in the Initial Assessment test; humor him a while until you have a REAL reason to dislike him. Dude might have some good qualities buried under all that swagger . But Cayon, hope say you no dey take style collect advice here; no bounce your guy lik dat-o!Last thing, this is not a Romance Help thread; its RANT Central. Folks don't offer advice here; they rant - you know, swear and scream and shower spittle in the air!! ![]() |
It was like three months ago when Seun asked for views on a further sub-division of the Literature section. I replied with a suggestion to create a second child-board (the first was "Poems" for Short Stories and Drama; I even went as far as explaining that this would rhyme with the main genres of Literature: prose, poetry and drama. Unfortunately, Seun didn't think so. And so, here we are. I was quite stunned at first, but since I had no stakes in the Nairaland enterprise, I decided to keep my thoughts to myself.In my opinion - and no disrespect is intended here - literary affairs aren't exacty Mr. Seun's fort; otherwise, with a child-board titled "Writers: Post Your Stories, Scripts, and Poems Here For Review", what is the main board supposed to contain? Literary chit-chat? I'm guessing his reason was to stem the compunction of most posters to post their poems on the main board, but obviously it isn't working. There really isn't any order any more. |
My fingers are crossed. |
This is the 21st century, not the 12th . I don't mean to despise little beginnings and all, but someone should please tell our Naija-based scientists that the world has moved on past home-made rockets - that is, if this is not some silly catch-22. Nobody is gon.na give 'em a medal for manufacturing a crude contraption like that; in fact they more likely to get laughed at. The way to do it is to learn the current technological standard, then incorporate it into your own design. Stop re-inventing the wheel; the Mesopotamians did that five millenia ago. |
Well, as you can see, I'm just smiling. In a country where Presidents fight for 3rd terms while their less-fortunate country men are starving; in a country where governors and council chairmen whiz around in siren-wailing motorcades, and God help any stupid idiot that gets in their way; in a country where the first thing senators do upon getting into office is issue themselves new 4x4 jeeps; in a country where the electorate are willing to sell their voting rights to the highest bidder; in a country where putting a white elephant in space takes precedence over educating the leaders of tomorrow; in a country like this, what do you expect?Frankly, I'm not surprised at all. Until we learn to stop putting the cart before the horse in this country, things like this will never stop happening. Fools at forty. . . fools at forty; my God, BBC of all places!!https://img2.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/characters/character0051.gif |
Good-o. |
[quote author=Mad_Max link=topic=195089.msg3081029#msg3081029 date=1226574288]Don't worry,they're only beating Naval officers children and journalists for now. E never reach engineer side.[/quote]Very funny. https://img2.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/cool/cool0018.gif [quote author=Mad_Max link=topic=195089.msg3081029#msg3081029 date=1226574288]But if a policeman assaults you here,make sure you memorise the name and number on his tag,and get a lawyer,sue. There are NGOs that offer law services pro bono in the country. At the very least that policeman would be demoted,or lose his job. Don't let them get away with it.[/quote]Got it. Oya, wey dat yeye "mofo" wey dey tanda for my street corner sef? ![]() But really its sad that most cops here are so low they regard simple citizens as animated punching-bags. |
Oh man, V, can't you figure out why i don't post that often?? Its because - and please don't tell anybody else - because half the time I don't have anything worth saying to say. I mean this isn't like Blaze's rant thread where you can just post any shit that comes to your head - no disrespect to ariblaze-san . And what's more: after SMC and stillwater, you and Sisi have the most incisive minds in Lit-NL (in my opinion, anyway), though Sisi has a "round-the-mulberry-tree" way of making her point which more often than not leaves her audience a little winded. So you see, a body has to watch he says around you two.Tell you what V; you come up with a cure for my persistent "poster's block", and I'll amp-up my postal frequency. What say you? ![]() |
I heard the guy and his Nigerian entourage were refused entry as election-monitorers (in the US elections); is it true? Maybe that's why he's spewing such crap. |
Frankly, I don't get it. Just the other day Uzoma was molested by naval officers, and the entire nation screamed blue murder. Not up a week after that, this again! And if I'm not wrong, nothing is going to happen to those crazy Mopol officers, and the people who argued that Uzoma's case only got publicity because of her father's status are going to be proved right. My God, what kind of country is this? I'm tired of this impotent rage and anger - WHAT CAN BE DONE TO STOP THIS ? There are lawyers and journalists and what-else in this forum; what do y'all suggest - PRACTICAL things I mean? What's the best way to go against this rampant abuse of human rights? Jesus, if a journalist (of all sphere of occupations) can be brutalized, what will happen to an engineer like me? Please, please, RESPOND! I WANT TO DO SOMETHING - BEFORE THEY BRUTALIZE ME TOO!!! |
TeniBaba:Tight. You held the flow of words all till the end of the poem |
I won't argue with you, blue. It never did V any good, anyway . I just gonna have myself a field-day with these smileys . . .https://img2.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/cool/cool0044.gif https://img2.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/cool/cool0010.gif https://img2.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/jumping/jumping0005.gif https://img2.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/fighting/fighting0010.gif https://img2.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/fighting/fighting0038.gif https://img2.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/love/love0025.gif - oh yeah, I caught the bug, too. No wait, that was Sisi who said that. Hee-hee.https://img2.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/happy/happy0025.gif |
Sisi Jinx: bluespice:Girl keeps going on and on. https://img2.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/indifferent/indifferent0022.gif |
Alright Cayon, spill it: where you getting those pics from? The last one was . . .was . . . ehmmm! |
spikedcylinder:No sweat; just be a good girl, else. . . https://img2.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/cool/cool0001.gif @ V: Weep not child. . . ![]() |
@ Tgirl4real: I've debated with myself whether or not to post in this thread (too much of every thing is bad, you know) for 2 days now, and I finally succumbed to the temptation. Umm, see, I'd like to nominate Sisi Jinx (formerly Baby_Jinx, formerly Sisikill) for a Celebrity Status. Celebrity-watch isn't exactly my fort, ok, but I gon.na bet my boot-straaps anybody who hangs out in the Literature section knows her. |
Sisi Jinx:https://img2.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/rolleye/rolleye0014.gif Thot as much; V must be bursting nerve-cells wondering why it took me so long to put 3 n 7 together. But hey, its your life, just don't get your persona blacklisted again, there ain't that many words that rhyme with 'Sisi' you know. Hey V, found some one to play with yet? ![]() |
StephenP: ![]() I did the bad-boy thingy back in university and it sure worked - honest truth. A'course I know why it worked; it was just like StephenP said - except for one detail: IT never BACK-FIRED. Why: because I never cared either way. See, it only turns sour for you (the guys I mean) if you really care about the girl; on the other hand, if you are just in for the fun - like moi! - then all you gotta do when the cat turns mean is forget her, cast out your line (or line[b]s[/b] ) and look for another fish.Yes, I know all that sounds cruel and heartless, but the fact is most girls would rather hang with a bad, dontgivashit guy than a good, home-grown one. But there's still hope shaa: in the end, the girls get wiser and then the good "chineke" boys can have their turn . Guess that's what maturity is all about. Heck, I'm matured now; can't even remember the last time I chykd a sista. |
*** hums Tupac Amaru Shakur's 'Changes'*** . . . that's just the way it is/things'll never b the same/that's jus' the way it is/ oooh yeaaah. . . |
Touche'. ![]() Actually, I just wanted to have a post in the Notorious Lady Gamine's thread, no b say you too write-o! ![]() |
Ride on, Cayon. We may be keeping quiet, but that don't mean we ain't feeling your lines. I+be+watching.

@V: Nothin, man, absolooly noteeng . Just being ma normal, simple, dontgivashit self. But - yeah, me do admits it - I do like her some, chic just plucks the right violin with me. Oh, and B.T.W, thanks - you know what for. **@Seun: u gota undo some commands man; a body types "B.T.W"(without the dots), and it comes away as "between"!** @Sisi: Hi girl, what's up? Hope we haven't ran out of spooky tales. Not to worry, umma ransack my crazy life for some more. Umm, see Sisi, you and me've got a bone to pick. You been living a double life, haven't you? |
And finally I'm posting at the Rantster's rant thread; never thot the day would come. But I ain't here to rant - at least, not yet. Maybe on Monday i will, right after Mr Muck-a-Muck gets done eating my head for exceeding my deadline for the 4th day; never mind that it's his mess i'm cleaning up. Hey Blaze, been to Tgirl's celebrity thread yet? She's been asking for your head for days now, thinks you're cute nd you write 'touching' things. ![]() Tell me whn you get interviewd; would luv to see what picture she comes away with. |
Hey, hey, c'mon girls, quit bickering; 'tis a literary legend we's talking bout here. Mickey's gonna roll over 6-feet down if he catches wind of what y'all are yacking. |
Good work, GDP. I'm sure lots of |
