FashionRe: Women And Noisy Shoes by WebMonk(m): 9:49am On Nov 01, 2007
Honestly, it's bearable if the Lady (Note: Lady, not woman) who's wearing the shoes walk with "Poise and Grace"

I met a Lady and a woman who both wore stilleto shoes. One was a fast food joint. She got her attention and everyone acknoledged her (that usually includes something like a group of women getting green over the "desired positive attention"wink

The woman who also wore high heels was walking on unlevel ground at my University. Cheap thing that she wore, it broke and she fell flat on her face and sprained her ankle, in the midst of everyone!

Oh, well, wear @ owner's risk!

it's been a long, long, time since i held 2 pieces of code with a pair of tweezers in one hand and a magnifiying glass in the other (my2cents, you also did javascript? what DIDN'T YOU DO!!?)

@ poster: if you're using Dreamweaver, then all that is a snap. there's and extensive dreamweaver extension that does just that: form validation. with custom messages. it's here:

Jokes EtcPower Of Deduction by WebMonk(op): 4:37pm On Oct 27, 2007
Power of Deduction

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson go on a camping trip, set up their tent, and fall asleep.

Some hours later, Holmes wakes his faithful friend. "Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see."

Watson replies, "I see millions of stars."

"What does that tell you?"

Watson ponders for a minute. "Astronomically speaking, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo. Timewise, it appears to be approximately a quarter past three. Theologically, it’s evident the Lord is all-powerful and we are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, it seems we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. What does it tell you?"

Holmes is silent for a moment, then speaks. "Watson, you idiot, someone has stolen our tent."
Jokes EtcThe Seaman And The Pirate Conversation by WebMonk(op): 4:26pm On Oct 27, 2007
A seaman meets a pirate in a bar, and the talk turns to their adventures. The seaman notes that the pirate has a peg leg, a hook, and an eye patch. "How did you end up with the peg leg?" he asks.

The pirate replies, "I was swept overboard into a school of sharks. As my men were pulling me out, a shark bit my leg off."

"Wow!" says the seaman. "What about your hook?"

"Well," answers the pirate, "we were boarding a ship when one of the enemy hacked off my hand."

"Incredible!" says the seaman. "How’d you get the eye patch?"

"A sea gull shit in my eye," the pirate replies.

"You lost your eye to a sea gull dropping?" the seaman asks.

"Well," says the pirate, "it was my first day with the hook."
RomanceRe: Trend: Girls In A Hurry To Get Married by WebMonk(m): 3:26pm On Oct 27, 2007
efuah:
yeah bro, maturity is all that matters wink
As much as maturity matters, the REAL Crux of the matter is how every virtue (courtesy of our generation) has now become relative. Ask a Sweet 16 who's more mature? An 18 yr BAD GUY who seems to be plucking money like tomorrow should take a hike and can deliver, or a 26yr old who's yet to reach any of these? Success of the fittest blinds them to true virtue.

i guess that 8yrs is enough for someone (her) to be "matured" for marriage (16 - 24)?. My thoughts, as always.
RomanceRe: Trend: Girls In A Hurry To Get Married by WebMonk(m): 1:29pm On Oct 27, 2007
@ poster. she has a point man.

as weird as it is to me (though i understand to some point) 24 ain't too young to marry. with higher chances of all sort of health complications associated with late pregnancy and such, it would make sense.

i think what you're trying to point out is if they are physcologically prepared for marriage (which i think is seriously lacking)

WebmastersHelp Urgently Needed Nairahost! by WebMonk(op): 10:14am On Oct 27, 2007
I paid for a professional linux hosting account about a month ago. While i was moving the database from the previous server to your's i'm given the error message:

"[size=14pt]Sorry for the inconvenience![/size]
The filesystem mounted at /home/nevadast on this server is running out of disk space. cPanel operations have been temporarily suspended to prevent something bad from happening. Please ask your system admin to remove any files not in use on that partition."

I haven't even exceeded 100MB of My 1024MB Hosting space so this shouldn't happen. Moreover, i can't access the database section for the web application as well.

I tried entering your client section and i get this:

Critical Error

Could not connect to the database


Please, this isn't the way to go. I referred a Us client to you because i thought (and would like to think) that your support is second to none. US people have no form of patience whatsoever. I'm begging you to resolve this.

@poster. I'm sure it's your personal conviction, but you went on a bad note in it's title. There is no way just about anyone would be predisposed to your site positively (which is just about anyone who browses the webmasters section.)

Best method is to humbly put your site here for review and/or recommendations/opinions. works better in the long run. wink
WebmastersRe: Web-sms Solutions. Anybody? by WebMonk(m): 10:17am On Oct 25, 2007
they use interswitch for their payments, and they're listed on the interswitch website, so that's as genuine as you can get. the site does need a rework, like you said. using the API as with any other system requires sending the parameters via URL Strings. And for the record, i've tried their normal web2sms and it worked (with my ATM Card)

Hope this works

almondjoy:
Thank you for the clarification. I got scared a little. tongue
Yeah - about that. You can't seriously said i scared you with that, in this day and age (more like - "in the kind of world we live in"wink. I can't help but be a little surprised that a guy like you said that (no offense. It's just if a female said that i wouldn't raise an eyelid)
RomanceRe: Phases Of A Relationship: Your Thoughts? by WebMonk(op): 7:55pm On Oct 24, 2007
@almondjoy, you misread me. I meant both sets of 8-10. here:


8. Relationship deepens (Bonding)
9. Courtship
10. Marriage

8. Make out (Sexually aroused)
9. Clothes off (Very sexually aroused)
10. Sex (Very very very sexually aroused!)

Preferrably in this order wink

almondjoy:
I think the list does not end there Webmonk. Any thing else to add? tongue Not all relationships lead to marriage as you can see on Nairaland. wink

I think bebe2007 has a clearer picture of what the deal is! cheesy
True, the order (including the sets of 8-10) is the way i would want it grin

More versions please! (fill in the blank spots and steal the gold from bebe2007! i doubt it, though) wink

RomanceRe: Phases Of A Relationship: Your Thoughts? by WebMonk(op): 5:48pm On Oct 24, 2007
shocked i almost choked on my food 3 times when i read you post! Fantastic! Well done. cheesy

But seriously, is there anything else that time did not permit you to add? as it seems, you have it all wrapped up.

to further drive home my point, i believe that when someone has in mind a general idea of the stages (it comes from experience though), he/she is in a better position to see, how should i say it "the writings on the wall", if there is.

Well Done!

RomanceRe: Phases Of A Relationship: Your Thoughts? by WebMonk(op): 2:27pm On Oct 24, 2007
i don't think there is such a thing as a "rigid stage". (You still can't just walk up to someone and ask for marriage now, can you?). neither am i saying one should change his/her self because of the implications of a "rigid state", like you said. It's just a matter of intrest.

thanks for the input though

@cmon
Web2smspro has added a developers section that shows how to interface an application, site or system with thier messaging gateway using a Web API. For more details, log on to http://www.web2smspro.com and click the DEVELOPERS Tab on the home page.

Hope that works
RomancePhases Of A Relationship: Your Thoughts? by WebMonk(op): 6:02pm On Oct 23, 2007
With some many different views on relationships and what's right/wrong, Can anyone honestly outline the stages of a relationship? I came across an article some time back and it goes like this:

1. Approach (Walking over and saying hello)
2. Digits (Getting a phone number, email address, etc.)
3. Date request (This can actually be done when you first meet)
4. Date (The actual time with her)
5. Hold hands (The first sustained physical contact)
6. Kiss (The first 'intimate' contact)
7. Alone in private (Trust)

*****DEPENDING IF YOU AGREE FROM 8 AND ABOVE

8. Make out (Sexually aroused)
9. Clothes off (Very sexually aroused)
10. Sex (Very very very sexually aroused!)


****ANOTHER VERSION
8. Relationship deepens (Bonding)
9. Courtship
10. Marriage.



Your thoughts? Other versions are welcome (Players included)
RomanceRe: How Do You Handle A Rude Woman by WebMonk(op): 4:51pm On Oct 22, 2007
Otio! See what i have been missing in NL (Had to reactivate my internet access).

Thanks NL for your support. For d record i haven't lashed out anybody, but when you follow that rule almost your entire life you can't help but wonder if there isn't a better alternative. guess there isn't.

I've learnt from experience (though not mine). My sister was already "engaged" so to speak. All that was needed was for her boyfriend to meet our parents and receive their blessing. 2 days prior to that day they had a major argument (I've settled some myself). And he got "physical". She had bruises and such. That was it. You wouldn't believe how much this guy begged, called to apologize, but it was over.

desertboom:
Ha, if she is too rude rather rude you tell her the final goodbye simple.
Nice one, i'll admit

almondjoy:
Just from observing your two posts above, looks like you are have a naturally "angry" constitution and are in dire need of some anger management courses, before your maim somebody.
wow - na me be dis?
RomanceRe: How Do You Handle A Rude Woman by WebMonk(op): 7:18pm On Oct 18, 2007
Done that. But sometimes it's not as gratifying as lashing out. I did just that, but it stings. angry

it's not everyday someone talks to you anyhow and gets away with it. Man, so pissed!
RomanceHow Do You Handle A Rude Woman by WebMonk(op): 6:31pm On Oct 18, 2007
How do you handle a rude woman? Do you ignore her or lash back? I've heard of a slap or two a cautionary measure but i'm sure there's something better. Any Ideas?

Alright, i'm back, with gunz blazing! I've installed IE7, tweaked the code here and there, and tada! the scroll bars disappeared when i removed the float attribute from the right column (under the class "comment_styling"wink. Not the way a Web Standard Browser should work now, is it? angry

It might be a bloody step in making everyone change from IE6 and the hacks we've gotten used to, but it will be worth it.

i hate Microsoft! angry(Although a necessary evil) wink
