Ol boy ye, show don finish Here is what the author posted on her blog yesterday. . . . .

A small Twist

Hello Everyone;

Thanks for following my journal.

Sharing the journal has been therapeutic and your notes, even the harsh ones, have been like warm robes to me.

When I started, my goal was to share my experience with fellow Nigerians. But, it spread wildly and quickly over the Internet.

Two weeks ago, I got a mail from an agent who wanted to represent the journal. Within three days, four more book agents called from Los Angeles, New York City, San Francisco and Philadelphia. I was hesitant. I loved the small world I shared my story with.

But, some of you had written in the last few weeks that this was a book you wanted to read. In the end, I signed with a book agent. I agree that this may be a story for a bigger audience.

A direct result of the contract is that I stop exhibiting my journal on this space and concentrate on writing the manuscript.

I have enjoyed this forum and I will continue to keep you informed on the progress of the agents and their attempt to get my story published.

If you would like to get the update(s), please leave your e-mail address on the space underneath my bio.

I’m not sure what I’ll do with this space. Some people had asked to use it in the past to post videos and webisodes on Wednesdays and Fridays. I might consider that in the coming months.

Whatever happens, you’ll be the first to know.

Thank you so much for your love and support.

Bose

Wishing her the best sha. . . . . . . .

Mahn, I just saw the the highlights of the match and I'm sooo impressed. . . .particularly with Anthony Ujah. He's fast, agile, got good ball control, off the ball movement and positional play, acrobatic, can dribble and packs a decent shot too.

The others (Emmanuel Nosakhare Igiebor & Ohi Omoijuanfo) are also very good. Siasia should call up Anthony Ujah to the Super Eagles while Nosa & Ohi should be invited to the U-23 team.

TV/Movies › Re: What Was The Last Movie You Watched? by semid4lyfe(m): 11:53pm On Mar 20, 2011

@ eldee

Coincidentally, the last Indian movie I watched before My Name is Khan was like 10 years ago (2001/2002) and it was made by the same director (Karan Johar) who did MNIK and it starred the same peeps. . . .Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol.

It's titled Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. It's another classic. . .go watch it if you haven't seen it.

TV/Movies › Re: What Was The Last Movie You Watched? by semid4lyfe(m): 9:53pm On Mar 20, 2011

eldee: That's it . . . no more foreign movies till I get the time, I had to try ot five different ones to see which one fit.
Na big eshe if you nor watch My Name Is Khan o . As in, the movie is that GOOOOOOD and you know I don't hype a movie unnecessarily

The one I have is in hd mkv format and is just 654mb with a screen resolution of 1008 x 416 and it came inbuilt with the subtitle so I didn't have to download the subtitle file separately.

I think it was originally uploaded by ShAaNig or so. Let me dig around and see if I can help you with a download link.

Hope you don''t mind rapidshare download link sha?

TV/Movies › Re: What Was The Last Movie You Watched? by semid4lyfe(m): 7:02pm On Mar 20, 2011

First film I watched today was Hereafter (2010). . .a film directed by Clint Eastwood and starring Matt Damon. Film is slightly over 2 hours but I didn't notice cos it's a riveting, deep, profound and thought-provoking movie. . .I loved it.

Watched The Mechanic (2010) immediately after that. Movie is kinda similar to The Transporter and Jason Statham acted the same kinda all action stereotypical roles he's known for but still I liked it . . .

I'm now watching Shanghai (2010). Movie is in chinese and that has dulled it a bit but luckily I was able to download a fitting subtitle. An interesting movie so far. . . . . .

TV/Movies › Re: The Movie Club by semid4lyfe(m): 1:23pm On Mar 17, 2011

_{I don't know about others but I feel slightly jaded about the whole spy/undercover/special agent ''action'' movie genre Maybe it's cos I've read too many espionage novels and watched too many tv series + films in this genre so I feel everything has been done before}

RED is an extremely interesting movie with lots of ''gun-firing'' & ''bomb exploding'' action and a fair dose of comedy, romance and humour but that's where the +VE ends for me,

The storyline/plot was unoriginal and far-fetched . . . characters were exaggerated & unrealistic. . .action scenes were ''same of the same'' . .and the whole film was damn predictable.

Best performance in the film was from John Malkovich as he portrayed his character of a paranoid, deeply suspicious and slightly unbalanced old man very well. The performances of the others was just average IMO.

Surely, the quartet of Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman, John Malkovich and Helen Mirren could have been put to better use? . . . .I'll score RED a 60%

TV/Movies › Re: The Movie Club by semid4lyfe(m): 8:45am On Mar 15, 2011

_{Hmmm, posting via phone so I'll keep it short. . .}

I like Boxing & I love boxing-themed films and I've seen quite a no of 'em from the ''Rocky series'', ''Undisputed 1 & 2'', ''Ali'', ''Against the Ropes'', ''Million Dollar Baby'', ''Annapolis'', ''The Hurricane'' etc to mention a few so The Fighter was no exception. I mean. . .the combination of some ''simulated/special effects assisted'' pound for pound action in a ring and the ''off-ring'' drama and story that revolves around a boxer never fails in making an interesting & engrossing movie.

The interaction and dialogue between the principal characters in the movie was well scripted and done and the boxing/fighting scenes were very good too. The quartet of Mark Wahlberg, Christian Bale, Melissa Leo and Amy Adams all gave stellar performances although I feel the standout performance was from Christian Bale (Dicky).

The Fighter easily ranks among my top 10 boxing movies of all time and I'll score it 85%.

_{Perhaps, someone should create a thread for strictly boxing movies so we can poll and know peoples favourite boxing movie of all time}

@ el,

I really liked The Great Debaters. It even inspired the signature I used before this present one. . . .''Shut Up! You're nothing but a mere dissenting voice to the truth I speak''

I know the film was based on true historical happenings but I felt the Harvard team had the superior argument in the final debate (as it was presented in the film) and should have won the debate
