RomanceRe: She Calls Her Ex-boyfriend 65,000 Times!!! by Konjour(m): 8:22pm On Sep 08, 2011
To break it down further,that amounts to an average of a call every 8 minutes throughout the whole year,and she'd probably spend a minimum of

3-5 minutes during every call,theoretically that leaves the dude some 3-4 minutes of rest before his phone starts the routine again,

seriously,what the Zap??!!! huhembarassed Stalking or even Obsession doesn't quite fit into that kinda picture,fingers crossed there will be a new

word attached to such the next time the Oxford Dictionary is revised! BTW the ex involved must have been to hell'n back thrice already

RomanceRe: Should A Man Help Out His Wife/Girl-Friend In The Kitchen? by Konjour(m): 12:37am On Sep 05, 2011
I'v been cooking my own meals for donkey years,so i might just try to help her out sometimes with my kitchen expertise regardless of her

status.i.e it doesn't matter if she is my girlfriend,fiancée,wife.etc

However,i'd stop such ASAP if she starts viewing my "helping out" as my "duty". I a'int gon' take any of that!

But while the helping lasts at least,i might to treat of my own unique tastes,and si,por supuesto,sometimes the food will definitely get

burnt! rapidito! cheesy cheesy smiley
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Wenger Changes Arsenal Transfer Policy by Konjour(m): 12:59pm On Sep 04, 2011
[b]That's what happens when you are too convinced you're the most intelligent amongst your peers.

I had really wished he wouldn't get anybody before the window shuts so he could give his funny excuses all through this season;

"we lacked the energy in the final third today", "the players looked tired perhaps due to international commitment", "we came up against

a better team", "the referee made some questionable decisions" grin grin grin

And using a scattergun approach,he managed to buy 3 and loan 1 player whose average age should be about 28-29 years,one is very tall

but just as fast as a rabbit,one has failed to hold down a spot in the Brazilian national team since the Confederations cup in 2009,one is the

captain of the Israeli national team but he's so injury-ridden he can't even get a pay-as-you-go deal at Chelsea and had to be loaned out ASAP,

one is a very good player when fully fit,but his fitness levels recently has been worse than Louis Saha's was at United.

Oh,and Park Chu Young is gonna go back home finally for military service in 2013 undecided

Want to believe these guys were bought to shore up the cracks until Arsene would identify the latest reject from La Masia or the next

14 year old french wonderkid who would be lamely labelled the next "Zizou" and then the story we've so many times would start playing

itself out all over again. That man's ideas is just pre-Abrahamovich and pre-Sheikh Mansour and co,as long the likes of Man city,Chelsea.etc

keep having sugar daddies and Wenger is at the helm of Arsenal's affairs,i'm afraid getting into the Top 5 or 4 would be Arsenal's top priority

and winning trophies,Afterall Wenger himself said it last season after his capitulation. Newaiz,One United! cool[/b]

RomanceRe: Is It Decent For A Lady To Answer Her Phone After 11pm by Konjour(m): 12:03am On Sep 04, 2011
There are so many reasons why anybody male or female would/could/should not just pick,but make phone calls after 11pm.

A lot of peep's mindset(in Nigeria esp.) would be preset to think anybody talking at night would be talking to a lover or something similar,

and that is quite wrong.

Different situations may warrant people discussing at night,i have friends(ladies inclusive) who work in Banks in Lagos and i've

come to understand the best time for me to discuss anything personal with 'em would be around 9-12 pm cuz of their hustles.

That doesn't make 'em indecent as much as it makes a person standing in a garage a car.

I understand there are telecom companies organizing free calls at night too in Nigeria,people who have lengthy discussions with limited resources

can as well utilize that to the maximum,but generalizing all ladies who make or pick calls after 11pm to be indecent is not just

Ignorant,but funnily stupid.cool

TravelRe: RAF Fighter Jet Escort Nigerian Aircraft After Radio Failure by Konjour(m): 2:11pm On Aug 31, 2011
For a military transport aircraft that was in vogue in the RAF in the 1960s and the 70s to still be flying about 30 years after its been built

(when it's actually supposed to have been scraped into pieces since 2006),the pilot is definitely riding too hard on his luck.

Not surprised though,cuz even the average age of a Nigerian cargo ship nowadays can't be less than 25-30 years, Pathetic. embarassed

Ok, atheists you read that.

Since you want facts and are seeking truth,

Watch those videos pls!
I fully understand your optimism,but it'll really take more than Youtube videos to convince people,especially if they don't reason with or

understand how or why they should trust someone who claimed to have been to hell or heaven and back.

Won't be surprised if some people start suggesting that those people were looking for cheap publicity,or someone might even come with

a "logical" theorem or Scientific publication disproving resurrection as a rare phenomenon. grin grin grin

Spirituality does not need believers to prove that it exists,and its a very good thing that all humans have their freedom of choice.

You'll believe what you wanna even after you've been provided with enough evidence cuz Faith is not "logical." cool

Because science has disproved many Gods and religious assertions and it will continue to do so. . .Humans have always invented Gods or other invisible entities and supernatural explanations to explain that which they don't understand.  But then science comes along and tells them to stop sacrificing virgins to please some imaginary fertility Gods, science has shown people that there are no weather Gods that need pleasing, and we can do better by using irrigation and planting weather resistant crops instead of wasting time sacrificing animals to please the weather Gods. . .When sick science has provided us with drugs to cure and help us out instead of praying to some Gods for healing or sprinkling the bloods of some animals on sick people to heal them. . . Science has provided the best explanations for most things. . .The rainbow use to be explained as a necklace of some Goddess or a covenant between some Jewish tribal God and  his chosen people, but science came along and showed that its simply a refraction of light waves in the earth's atmosphere. . .Where are the Gods of thunder and lighting? Once the scientific explanation was provided for these two phenomenon the Gods of thunder and lighting all died natural deaths , no?. . . .Our ignorance is God, what we know is science. . . .
[b]The bolded part sounds like a classic case of "pot calling kettle black" to me cuz Science,Atheism and Atheists and their proponents

wherewithal do use figurative guesswork and outrightly and "logically stupid" theories as well.

Guess if the Pyramid of Khufu(or Cheops) had been washed away by time,it'd have been "illogical" to Scientists to suggest that Egyptians

who lived as far as the Old Kingdom or perhaps 10,000 years ago would have been smart enough to build a Pyramid bigger than any

one-piece building modern technology can muster out of straw,papyrus and limestone and achieve a square base so perfect the cumulative

errors between the longest and the shortest sides 'd be 4 Zap.in' inches.

Conversely,if Science can locate and prove beyond reasonable doubt the Lost Ark of Noah,the Pyramids' age,the hieroglyphics' tales,the

Temple of solomon,the wailing wall of Jerusalem,the existence of Nebuchadnezzar and Belteshazzar,the existence of Joseph as the governor

of goshen,parchments of inspired poetry about the "round" and spherical shape of the earth when the Scientists of the time "logically"believed

the earth was flat.etc etc, these are stories that are perfectly relayed out in the Bible some of whose books had been written thousands of

years ago. How logical does the Bible or the Quran or religion has to be to convince human minds that there is never smoke without fire.

Like i opined earlier,Atheists or wannabes should stick to their beliefs(if they have one) and they should let religious sleeping dogs lie. Nuff said. cool[/b]

I understand how you feel when you play a particular part of a game over and over and over again. It can be very annoying. My advice is to google that particular part and you will either see written guides or better still you tube video's showing how other gamers were able to beat that particular section. Some sites that you can also check for playthrough guide is "ign guides or www.gamesfaqs.com". Trust me, i have completed GOW3 100% so i know what i am saying (please feel free to check my psn profile as i use the same user name to confirm my 100% completion position). The choice is yours. I wish you success as that part is very doable, you just have to understand the game sequence and flow.

Finally, when you are having trouble with a particular part of a game, either you take a break and do something else or play another game for some time before going back to that part. Also, learn to be patient and really enjoy your gaming experience. I found out that when you just relax and enjoy your games you will progress faster as you are under less pressure.

Best of luck. smiley

nah it can be next month o there is still a lot of work to be done , it felt like i was skating on ice the whole time i was playing , [b]i moved a left back to center back position and his stats dropped from 81 to 47 . [/b]what part of the game is that? , truss sha pes fans no go gree grin grin grin im just sain download the demo and play it , one thing i will give pes tho is that the dribbles go thru a whole lot easier than in fifa
Its slated to be released around the same time as FIFA 12,and FIFA 12 is also gon' be out as from next month(at least in the Uk).

Switchin' players from their fundamental positions is always going to affect their stats drastically,especially if they're not capable of playing in

multiple positions. The same thing happens in FIFA too,and i've even noticed it as far as FIFA 08 and PES 09,so its not something new at all.

Its all part of what makes the games more realistic. In real life,Wayne rooney lost form and went on his career's most severe goal droughts

in the 2008/2009 season when he was pushed out wide to play as a left Attacking Winger in the attack triumvirate of Man utd in that year in

order to accommodate CR7 to play as a "False 9". So,the games are only getting better and more realistic. cool

[b]I have hundreds of friends whom are atheists(most of 'em are british though),

1 of them told me he's only been in a church once,and that was when he got married(25 years ago grin i wasn't even born then)

Another told me he simply got fed up of being driven to church every sunday by his parents for endless years without

receiving a life-changing "miracle" from the so-called and highly revered God. grin

A major percentage of those I KNOW don't believe in God not cuz of Science or some random theorems of evolution,not even because

of Scientific LOGIC,but that's not a generalization cuz the ones i know are only a minute fraction of others.#FACT

Some became atheists cuz they had a innate drive to rebel against anything others see as the "norm",

Some did cuz they wanted to look and sound super-intelligent and positively different,

Some did cuz they wanted to be noticed,

Some did cuz they were frustrated,bewildered and angry about the perceived lack of "natural" Justice in every facet of human life,

Some did cuz they were very inquisitive and wanted everything to be Black or white,

Some even belonged to different factions,i never knew Atheists had groups and various factions with slightly varied views.

The summary of what i think is that an awful lot of Atheists or wannabes DO NOT know the certain origin of life,and they don't care to know or

they don't want to believe it cuz the most articulate story of the Origin of life known to man is in the Bible and the Quran.

I guess i was lucky i wasn't "driven" to believe in God by my parents,they gave me the freewill to choose my beliefs(which is rare),

and i came to believe in not just the existence of a Super-all knowing God,but i found how to speak to him,he listens and he DOES respond

with mind-boggling speed,accuracy and efficiency in mind and in deed(Nobody else has to believe that to make it a fact to me).

Chart your own course to where your mind finds hospitality and acceptance. Atheists can believe whatever they wanna. cool[/b]
