Sports / Re: Tammy Abraham Debuts For England Senior Team, Plays For Only 3 Minutes by Taciturn1: 10:12am On Oct 12, 2019
Kanade21:


Genetics is a funny thing.

The singer Mariah Carey is the daughter of a black man and a white woman. She has an older brother who is nine years older than her.

Her brother looks black. Sne looks white Same mother , same father.
Tammy's mom certainly is not white. Maybe what you meant to say was, she's British.

Car Talk / Re: Man Shares His First Car Experience In 2002 by Taciturn1: 11:32pm On Oct 06, 2019
Very hilarious.

Have had a similar experience. Some time in 2017 After using the ATM, was returning to the car I parked, I didnt notice anything wrong initially, but getting closer to my car, a man asked me in a police investigative tone, "Oga is this your car?"

Out of fear, I felt like denying the car, but I managed to reply "yes". That was when the man told me to check, that my car had rolled on to his SUV and that I would be paying for the damages(though due to the nearness of the vehicles, there was actually no damage). I was shocked but was eventually let off the hook after much begging.

In my case I was saved by the SUV my car rolled on to, because a very busy major road was just a few meters away at the junction. I ended up thanking the man for saving me that day

If I was among those in the finals.

I'd silently remove the rat poison I had smuggled in the beginning of the show and put it in their meals b4 the main final event.

Yes, I'd kill them all and carry the money.
That way, I'd end immorality and Still get paid..

Very Easy for mono-ethnic states. How will multi-ethnic states handle it?

What we need to do is re-examine and reformulate a development driven constitution, different from the current sham of a constitution which our citizens had no hand in its formulation and adoption.

Politics / Re: How FG Lost N18.8bn To Fibre Optics Deal In 13 Years by Taciturn1: 12:29pm On Sep 26, 2019
JosEast:


TCN noted that “it has recorded less vandalism on its transmission line since termination of the concession agreement as compare to our previous records.” The transmission company said since the termination, it has invested $25m in the fibre optics enhancement on critical lines which the concessionaire failed to provide. While TCN hopes to reach 20,000 megawatts (MW) by 2025 from the present 8,100MW wheeling capacity.

I agree with the fact that we have missed out on achieving a highly efficient grid network, due to the concession companies Phase and Alheri missing their funding agreements to implement the SCADA and EMS projects.

But the heap of the blame should go to the FG either in form of TCN, or the unbundling process of NEPA in 2005. The government saw the early signs of failure of the deal early enough, after the inadequate initial investments by both Phase and Alheri, but didn't act incisively until after over a decade.

Again what is the TCN insinuating, with the claim of reduced vandalisation of Transmission infrastructure after the SCADA contract was repealed.

I think you are wrong, they are tagged dangerous because when they eventually gets angry it is brutal. And most people so much get on their toes because they don't get angry easily, so pushing them so hard. They are mostly very soft and people take that as a weakness
Perfect explanation. We saw Sadio Mane's burst out recently against Salah.
