Phones › Re: I Hate Blackberrys And So Should You by Pennywise(m): 4:32pm On Aug 09, 2010
I am not a BB user but I do have sympathy for those who cant do without it. My cousin is a good example. He is an ED in a coy that has branches in all the states in naija. He does tons of formal real-time communication for which text messages are no option. Hence BB.

Glo or etisalat? Clarify pls
I have tried to clarify this. Someone I complained to outside NL regarding a certain obnoxious GSM network with nos beginning with 547. . .  was confident it is etisalat. I have since known better on NL. It is Adenuga's Glo.

Are you a lawyer? Are you interested in taking up the case?

Clearly the mastermind is a thrifty legislator who is determined to convert the desert he has been given to the tropical rain forest he is accustomed.

I can imagine his disappointment and how he must feel betrayed by his colleagues afterall he must have voted in favour of other money-chopping appropriations that didnt make any sense.

He went back to the drawing board to re-strategize and then came up with N300m+N500m=N15bn. This has failed to impress the 'honorable' members. Maybe he can reach out to the house leadership for new ideas since they are so keen on having the bill passed anyway.

i received the same messages on my Glo line, and i never for once replied.

the most annoying part is when the 547xxx number start flashing, that nonsense has stopped bcs i ignored them.

try to ignore the calls and also delete the sms.
Gaddem!!! Someone told me its etisalat. Glo of all networks! Thanks mate.

Glo is very sue-able. Lawyers in the house I am open to suggestions. There is money to be made. I want Adenuga's balls on banana peels

Phones › Who Will Save Me From Adenuga's Glo by Pennywise(op): 3:31pm On Jul 28, 2010
A little over 2 weeks ago I got an sms message from a glo number 5471018896

"My heart skips a bit everytime I miss u". This was followed by a series of calls. Being an unfamiliar number I felt its someone I know trying to be mysterious. Two can play the game, so I ignored it (after deleting message of course).

A few hours after this, 'hi lets share some talks (sic) that we can lock in our memories'. Others were to follow 'I wanna hold close (sic) to my heart be my frendz (sic) plz, etc. I contd to ignore these messages (along side annoying flashes) for a full week thinking when this person gets tired he or she will show self.

The frustration became too much when I was woken up one morning at 6:25am by another flash from this strange number. This time, I was really pis.sed and decided to put an end to it all. I dial the number and an automated voice tells me you are now being connected to your 'friend'.

My 'friend' on the other hand turned out to be a strange thickly accented male who is just as frustrated as I am. Of course the call will be charged to me. It was then I realized that this is all a marketing strategy of glo. I had not at anytime knowingly or unknowingly subscribed to their service. In a more civilized clime I would have got my self an intelligent lawyer and see how I can make some money out of them. But I cant hope to make a dimme out of them this being Nigeria and also the sim card is not one I can just throw in the bin. These days I get 20 maybe 30 calls and messages on any given day.

I have found that different lines are used to perpetrate this act-5471214089,5471212415 etc a fact that wasnt obvious to me at first because I didnt save number.

How can I get out of this. I will appreciate useful advice from anyone. Another sms just came in- 'what's up', 'what's your job' (more than 10 times)

No biometric data, fine.What about the name he used in the first application.Is it the same he is using now? If it is (even if a variant) then he is a turkey sitting at the counter

What abt the branch manager? Which bank allows a cashier to pay that kind of money without authorization?
Politics › Re: Politic's Today by Pennywise(m): 11:59am On Jul 28, 2010
The struggle for political power at the center is always a struggle b/w Nigerian moslems and Christians. The voting pattern among the Nothern governors clearly shows this.Those with a sizeable christian population are saying yes . Others are saying no. The personalties here IBB/GJ hardly relevant.
Romance › Re: What Led To The Break Up Between You And Your Ex? by Pennywise(m): 11:25am On Jul 28, 2010
I am at peace with all my exs. You see, I never actually break up even when I break up. All except one self-hating girl now married and living with her husband in London. I hope she is happy, because I am.
