I had been living in Dar-es-Salaam for a year when I started meeting
her in a daladala. We did not talk at first. There was a problem. She was a
woman and I was a man. In daladals that does not just happen: random
conversation. Unless the daladala nearly has an accident ,which is
rare.
A daladala running out of fuel in a jam still gets on
people’s nerves and gets them talking, quarreling actually. A
presidential convoy forcing us to swerve to the side of our narrow road
really gets people going.
We did not bond over any of those things.
For a long time, we did not even talk. But I watched her because she
was interesting. Although she was darker than black Bata shoe polish,
the conductors called her Mzungu. She insisted on English when speaking
to them. Even when about to disembark, she would not try to say "Kondaa Nishushe". She said, “Conductor, I’m getting out.”
She insisted on not being cheated by a single
shilling in the fare though she did not look poor. She was the first
person I ever saw with an Apple iPod back when, with many Tanzanians, I
did not know who Steve Jobs was. An iPod, then, was more expensive than
some small coloured TVs.
But that was not what I found most interesting
about her. I watched her, every time, to see if she would, just once,
sleep through her stop. She was an uninhibited sleeper in the taxi. But
right at her daladala stop, her head would snap back, her eyes pop open,
and she would near yell, “Conductor, I’m getting out.”
Everything was elegant about her, except the way
she slept and woke up in a panic. I did not understand why she slept in a
taxi until she told me her reasons. I thought it would be that she was a
single mother of three, looking after her unemployed parents and paying
tuition for her siblings. I thought maybe it was because she had to
wake up so early to go to work and just getting a chance to rest in this
evening taxi, on the long journey home.
I thought of every reason why she slept in a
taxi, but for the one she told me when we finally talked. She said, “So
fewer men can have a chance to ask me for my number.” Since then, I have
never sat next to her when I didn’t have to.
The awesome month is here. Allow me welcome November. Two things
are likely to happen. I will either have diarrhoea more often, or
constipation. Dear Lord, lead my way. The reason I rejoice about
November is not the rains that make me “forget” myself in bed or the
soggy earth that makes me almost employ someone to do the laundry for me
during this month. I refuse to mention how many times I keep explaining
myself to my boss every morning just because I’m running late.
November. Amidst all those issues just one thing delights me, those
creepy insects that are in the locust family. The seasonal grasshoppers
locally known as Senene.
As a matter of fact, the month of November is
known as Senene in Uganda. This is enough to explain that these
grasshoppers are normally around during this time of the year. It was
therefore not shocking when I goggled about it and the first result I
received was “Grasshoppers-senene- a Haya?Uganda delicacy” As a consumer, I
find these insects quite costly. Perhaps they are charging us for the
cold nights they spend trying to catch grasshoppers. They have to look
for very bright lights, could this be an extra charge for TANESCO?
When I first ate these grass hoppers, I hated the
whole Idea. I remember throwing up too. But 10 years later, I met a
friend who invited me to her house. She loved grasshoppers. As she
prepared them, she kept adding other ingredients like onions which gave
them an attractive aroma. At the end of her preparation, I had been
tempted. I really wanted to try and eat them again. These tasted so
delicious and up-to-date, I have never looked back.
People who eat grasshoppers have one thing in
common with pork and money lovers; nothing can ever be enough. Just the
other day, on my way home, I found someone selling them and she
convinced me that she had prepared them well. I did taste them at that
point for jaribu, but told her to give me some worth Shs1, 000. They
were soon done and I ordered for more of the same amount. I realised my
stay would see me spend all my money.
Then recently, as we were walking around Kariakoo,
I saw so many people vending grasshoppers. I was salivating the whole
way until my friend made the wisest decision ever. She said that she was
daring me to eat grasshoppers worth Shs5, 000. I insisted that I could
not handle, but nothing would make her change her mind. What a lovely
evening it was. I was so glad she dared me.
Yes Ndugu Barack Obama, I guess you are still savouring the
victory. You should have seen the tension on our faces (“our” here
largely means Africa) when the polls at some point indicated that the
Mitt Romney chap was about to pull a fast one on you. But it looks like
those pollsters, like our own here, might have taken kitu kidogo from
Romney’s camp. How come the so-called “close races” in Ohio and
Pennsylvania never occurred?
Our bigger worry though was how on earth, our own
son would be sent out of the White House just after one term. The
thought of you packing your bags, with Michelle and the girls shedding
tears as you made a pre-mature exit from that palace really worried us.
You know in Africa we have never stopped looking at our leaders as
chiefs even if they pretend to hold periodic elections and masquerade as
democrats.
The truth is that they look at themselves as
God-send, they live large, rule using patronage and believe only death
should get them off the throne- and when that happens, one of their own
should take over. These are all values our chiefs held in high esteem.
And take it or not, Barack, you are one of us. You are our true son from
Kogelo, just next door here in Kenya. It would therefore be very
disheartening to see you not follow in the tracks of our forefathers.
Which brings me to the next point. Why did you let
this election get this close? I know you worship your advisers like
David Axelrod and Jim Messina to the point of saying they are the best
campaign team in the history of politics but I beg to differ. How do you
stay with advisers who insist that you address your mind to issues yet
there are easier ways of winning an election? Why keep advisers who say
you talk about unemployment, immigration, foreign policy and yet you
could actually win an election by raiding the Federal Reserve Bank and
inundate those unemployed voters with dollar bills and win minus
breaking a sweat?
When I saw David Axelrod threaten to shave his
moustache that he has kept since the 1970s if Romney made inroads into
Pennsylvania and Minnesota, I kept laughing until I nearly collapsed.
Why stake a beard yet you could mobilise a pack of idle youth, equip
them with kiboko and unleash them onto voters, who then can be whipped
into voting “wisely”? Besides environmentalists who might complain about
tree branches being broken, I don’t see anyone else complaining about
this approach to winning an election.
Now, I have also been told that America has this
two-term presidential nonsense. Please, I know you could not mention it
in your campaigns, but it is something you must think about. Who does
not know that you are the best thing that ever happened to America? You
are only 51 and will be 55 when this term ends—who says one leaves power
at such a tender age?
As some Africa politician correctly pointed out,
politics begins at 70. At 55, you still have three decades of active
political life ahead of you. Here is my advice: Begin plotting on how to
change that constitutional amendment. We hear the American constitution
has never been tampered with, blah blah. There is always a first time.
Who knew a Kenyan would rule the greatest country on planet Earth? But
you broke that myth. You can also do away with this two-term myth.
I know the Congress is Republican-dominated but as
some chap said somewhere—each man has his price. You can have a word
with the guys at the Federal Reserve Bank and see if you can wire
something to the congress men and women’s accounts. You can label it a
“special consultative package”. I don’t know how much would do for
them—seeing that in Uganda it was as low as $2,000 (Shs5m) for each
legislator to achieve a similar feat. They should then begin talking a
language you understand.
Finally ndugu, I don’t know how you are planning
on retirement just in case this third-term project fails. We don’t want
to see you after these four years “grassing”. Think of opening an
offshore account in Sasha or Malia’s names. Ensure some public funds are
wired there. Also, think of acquiring a good country resort in Kenya.
You might need the good African weather to rest after hustling all these
years. Enjoy your second term!
Would you rather have $1,000,000 or the ability to give your
wife a mind blowing orgasm every time you touch her? This has got to be the
dumbest question I have ever been asked. Who would even pick the latter? Any
determined man can figure out the conundrums of the female orgasm, right? But
as I learned over the weekend, apparently some people would be much better off
with the orgasm thing.
The only thing I know less about than relationships is sex.
My pastor is very proud of me for it and my drinking buddies are not. But I
have a firm policy (which I occasionally ignore for comical purposes) to never
venture an opinion on things I do not know anything about. So I leave it to the
experts over at Classic 105 to dispense advice on such topics.
However, I also think it makes sense that if looking for sex
tips, it’s best to consult a professional. No, I don’t mean a therapist or a
“sex coach” (thank you America for yet another strange occupation). I mean a
person who has sex professionally. While doing research for the January project,
I had a sit down with a Nairobi “working girl” named Brenda (alias). During the
interview she shed light on a lot of things I hope to someday know about.
First of all, for all ye “Nay Sayers" out there,
Brenda’s turnover is up to Ksh150,000 per month on a good month (tax free). I
take that number as an indication that either she has A LOT of sex or she is
VERY GOOD at what she does. Either way, I would like to think it adds
credibility to her judgment on the subject. She and her colleague Salma told me
that one of the things they get paid for is therapeutic services. Both men and
women seek them out for sex tips all the time.
First of all, Brenda said affection is absolute. She told me
of a married friend of her mother’s who confided in her about an affair she had
been carrying on with a younger man. This woman was in her late fifties and had
never had an orgasm. The younger lad was able to take her to those levels
because he was more sensitive to her needs than her husband. Apparently, in
forty years of marriage, she had never seen her husband naked. This is because
he prefers it “in the dark” and treats sex like a secret. But the younger man
walks around the house naked and is comfortable in his skin.
In addition, Brenda highlighted the need for an emotional
connection. “I have multiple sex partners so what I feel depends. But when I am
with my boyfriend I feel complete”, she said. Don’t even ask about the
complications in that statement, I don’t feel like getting into that.
Furthermore, she said people need to be open-minded and make their desires
known. Finally, she said couples should shake it up. Try getting out of the boudoir
and trying different rooms and positions. More importantly, she recommended
that phones, computers and televisions be switched off and attention be focused
on the lover and love making.
After few articles many thought of me being pervert ,i got few emails from friends and fans around the world appreciating what i write , trying to reveal things that are not well followed or known,no gossip ,no fake staff but i underline reality.
Today i have a topic that am sure it will attract many of my Lads ,as i write i think of many things like how will the public think of this.
We have watched movies and even books ,one title that i love is "Sex And Drugs"...,i know how i attracted your sub conscious mind after stating the title.I don't intend to talk about the title but as my post title states "Konyangi and Sex".
Hey don't judge me am just trying to give a lesson here.Am not a big fan of hard liquor ,in my country "Tanzania" we have a very common hard liquor known as Konyagi ,one of the best actually ..the drink won lots of awards ,Tourists number one choice and many visiting would carry one to their home countries ,OK my plan here is not to blarney about this drink but is to tell you how its used in my country...
One of the evenings i decided to go have few drinks to cool down my nerves ,this very famous place known as "Java" ,a place with such a criteria ,i met my drinking lads ,had a few and quite the aesthetically stories made our evening,but surely we had something missing ,adorable girls that would make our existence noticed.
Jeff luckily dropped his big red eyes on a very exquisite girl ,he was such a gentlemen,this raised the girls enthusiastic.After few drinks the waiter came to ask what more we wanted ,we all ordered the same expect Jeff "i want a whole bottle of Konyagi" and we all dropped our eyes at him,thinking what went wrong? from Castle beer to "konyagi".
He tried to arcane the issue so he whispered in my ear ,"Musee Msongo(guy) this girl is sexy ,Chupa yote(whole bottle) of Konyagi will paralyze me and i will have a hardcore sex nakwambia".
It really caught me into a surprise ,my friend turning liquor into Viagra ,i had to do everything to stop him from having that forbidden fruit from a stranger and luckily i managed.
Ok as i shared a short story from my drinking mate "Jeff" ...what am trying to set here is we all love that long sex , we all want to please our partners thinking late ejaculation will determine how good you are , turning Liquor into Viagra isn't the best thing,the biggest problem is imagine "jeff" finishing that whole bottle ,do you think he could even recognize the girls face ,probably he could be very drunk and the result will be having sex without safeguard or passing out while having sex and this will lead the girl into stealing Jeff's properties..
Think about this careful...
I hope we all had that exquisite weekend we were all looking forward to have ,cant complain mine was quite interesting .I got a chance to be at the MTV EMA Awards ..
Surely tell you the awards were aesthetically gorgeous,one can ask how was i there , nothing to get surprised of ,thanks to the MTV EMA website and the internet provider ,i was able to attend the show while am in Africa ,i mean i watched it live...
I had to stay up all night enjoying seeing Taylor Swift ,One Direction ,Rita Ora ,Kanye West and many including my man Ludacris .
I loved this years event ,good preparation and quite fare selection on the winners .It was a very good night indeed for Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber this evening, as the pop twosome took home three MTV European Music Awards a-piece. Taylor was nominated for five awards over all, but lost out in the Best Pop and Best World Stage categories. Justin sadly couldn't make the do, but in true awards-show-style sent a video message, saying it was "the best night ever." With the Best Male award being presented by the cast of Geordie Shore, he was probably quite relieved he couldn't make it.
I always see this advert on my local TV, i surely don't understand the main breakdown , i don't mean to become TMZ but surely what does it really mean , my friend Suzy tells me i just hate the Commercial because am not a big fun of Condoms. I surely hated condoms but i have no option rather than tearing the pack and wearing one to prevent myself from the killer disease AIDS.
Condoms have never been a very close friend of mine because they also once challenged me and embarrassed me , i remember visiting the Mangi Kioski just nearby ,it took me time to say what i wanted cause i had that fear that how will the Mangi think of me.
lets cut the chase and get back to the advert,i understand the producers target was to show that a guy using condom is the man,well understood but at least the scenes could talk more on the condoms,what i love about this commercial is the wobbly beats and the funny music that is used, but to my point of view it does not convince me to buy the condom ,but it only teaches me to give a ride to a beautiful women if she is stranded , kick a smugglers butts when he steals from a women ,how to approach a lady while smiling and the next thing we do is dancing ,when am in a daladala should watch around if a big mama is starring at me.
Hey don't call me loather , no hard feelings on Dume ,by the way am their good purchaser but my advice is next they do a commercial about condoms think of something real ,something emotional ,show victims ,let them talk about this killer disease ,show symptoms and how many people we are loosing each day because of this disease..trust me emotion teaches,am sure your target was the youth that's why you used the wobbly beats ,the good looking tall guy and anaesthetically appealing woman,not bad i say but emotion and reality could make the message pave ways..
"I'll be back" how many of you recall this phrase ,Perhaps everyone that is a fun of the American professional body builder who won Mr.Universe at the age of 20.
Arnold Schwarznegger loved by many ,a good actor that thrilled the action world movies ,speaking of him i don't think out there we have someone who is not aware of his movies,the Austrian bad ass .
Am a big follower of this dude, that probably now he should be in a museum,as he said in Expendables ,i heard a lot this year about him being featured in different roles and several upcoming movies, but don't we all remember he claimed retirement ?
I don't blame Katherine's dad ,he is now getting back his muscles on the screen ,but this time aged muscles but we are still thirsty to see them,see him swing a beer mug at a guys head .
Arnold cant resist acting just because he enjoys what he does and he does it best ,but this time around on my point of view is i like this guys film and this upcoming movies are full of comedy seeing Mr. Universe Grandpa on the run is such a Honor.
Among Arnold Schwarzenegger's list of upcoming projects - which apparently now also includes The Legend of Conan - is Ten, David Ayer's action thriller that will have Schwarzenegger playing the leader of an elite DEA task force. The actor shared a photo of himself today in uniform and tattoos for the role.
In addition to Schwarzenegger, Ten stars Sam Worthington, Mireille Enos, Olivia Williams, Malin Akerman, Joe Manganiello, Josh Holloway, Terrence Howard and most recently added to the cast, Harold Perrineau. The film follows a DEA task force that's under investigation for stealing $10 million of drug money during a raid. That in itself is bad enough, but things get worse when members of the team start getting killed one by one.
Schwarzenegger tweeted the photo below, which shows us a heavily armed John 'Breacher' Wharton.
Arnold Schwarzenegger will return to the role that launched his career. The Action star is slated to reprise the role ofConanin a direct sequel to 1982’s Conan the Barbarian. The film will be titled The Legend of Conanand will ignore previous franchise entries Conan the Destroyer and the 2011 re-boot Conan the Barbarian, which starred Jason Momoa as the iconic character in place of Schwarzenegger, garnering disappointing box office returns.
According to one of the film’s producers, Fredrik Malmberg, the film will pick up where the original left off — with Conan on the throne. He will apparently be living out the later years of his life and looking to go out with a great battle. Schwarzenegger said of his return to Conan, “I always loved the Conan character and I’m honored to be asked to step into the role once again.”
Schwarzenegger has been making movie news a lot lately after his return to acting in The Expendables 2. Not only does the actor have The Tomb with Sylvester Stallone scheduled to come out in 2013, but in the same year he headlines his own film, The Last Stand.
Women are the most confusing creatures on
the planet. They say what they don’t mean, mean what they don’t say,
act in DIRECT contradiction of BOTH and vice versa. Did that sentence
confuse you? See! Even describing them is a head trip! Women are the
only creatures on the planet who can claim to enjoy rainbows yet
vandalize them by adding made up things like “Magenta” to the layers. So
it comes as NO surprise to me when a woman does something attention
grabbing then gets offended when I point it out.
The
latest in female psychological assaults on me came from a co-worker who
was wearing a different fragrance from usual this morning. I gave her a
sniff and with a big smile pointed out how nice the new scent is. I
even inquired into what the new brand was thinking I was complimenting
her. But she got upset, ran off to the other side of the room and
launched into a rant about how I should not do that again. Not even a,
“Hey, thanks for noticing!
My nose is pretty large, so I smell things more intensely than most
would. It’s a silent talent of mine. Am like a bloodhound and to some
extent resemble one (most prominently on mornings after a good night
out). So it perplexes me to no end that my co-worker would be offended
about my sniff. Did she want me to cover my face and turn away to
respect her femininity?
"Sniffing is one of the highest compliments
I can give you without licking you..."
Fido
This kind of thing happens to men all too often. A woman wears a
revealing tank top and we get scowled at for looking at her cleavage. A
woman wears a short skirt displaying her legs and we have to go have a
talk with human resources about the “lingering looks”. The cute waitress
in skinny jeans at the pub bends over and my date chews me out for
checking out her buns. What do women want? Why do they keep doing things
to get noticed then getting upset when men notice?
Let’s
face it gents, the gender war is over and we lost. This is mostly
because we didn’t ever ACTUALLY know when we were fighting. In order to
safeguard ourselves from sexual harassment seminars, I believe all men
should do what we were originally programmed to do in Eden… BE IGNORANT!
Think about it, Eve was permanently nude and there is no record
anywhere in Genesis of Adam reacting prior to eating the fruit.
So,
I’m taking a leaf (pun intended) from the original. This means, when a
woman is wearing a short skirt, I will admire the clouds. If she is
wearing nice perfume, I will cover my nose like it’s tear gas and living
in Nairobi has given me much practice on how to do that. But for
situations where will power may fail like if she wears a revealing tank
top, I have no choice but to close my eyes and feel my way out of the
room. I implore my fellow men to do the same.
U.S. President Barack Obama told a cheering crowd of supporters that “the best is yet to come” during a victory speech in the early hours of Wednesday after winning another four years in the White House.
After trailing in both electoral college votes and the popular vote to Republican challenger Mitt Romney, Obama surged ahead with victories in key battleground states of Ohio and Virginia to win the election.
Obama and his family arrived on the stage at his headquarters in Chicago to Stevie Wonder’s “Signed, Sealed, Delivered,” as thousands of supporters cheered and waved American flags.
Obama waited while the crowd erupted in a chant of “Four more years, four more years,” before beginning his speech.
He told supporters that “the task of perfecting our union moves forward, it moves forward because of you.”
Obama said the election reflects “the belief that while each of us will pursue our own individual dreams, we are an American family and we rise and fall together as one nation and as one people.”
He pulled ahead late after Romney was ahead in Electoral College votes for much of the night. Romney also had a slight edge in the popular vote, but even that lead eventually slipped away and Obama led by a few thousand votes.
Hours after polls closed, Virginia was finally declared for Obama early Wednesday, which gave Obama 303 electoral votes to Romney’s 203.
In the U.S., the popular vote does not decide who wins the election. Rather, the winner of each state gets that state’s Electoral College votes, and 270 are needed to win.
Romney emerged shortly before 1 a.m. Wednesday to address his supporters at his campaign’s headquarters in Boston.
“I have just called President Obama to congratulate him on his victory,” Romney said.
“His supporters and his campaign also deserve congratulations. I wish all of them well.”
Romney also thanked his wife, Ann, and his running mate, Paul Ryan.
"I believe in America. I believe in the people of America,” Romney said to cheers and applause from the crowd.
"Paul and I have left everything on the field...I so wish that I had been able to fulfill your hopes and lead the country in a different direction, but the nation chose another leader."
Obama’s headquarters in Chicago erupted in wild cheers after he was declared the winner shortly before 11:30 p.m. ET Tuesday.
“This happened because of you,” Obama tweeted. “Thank you.”
Prime Minister Stephen Harper issued a statement early Wednesday to “congratulate President Barack Obama’s re-election as President of the United States of America.”
Harper said he is looking forward to working with Obama over the next four years on the economy, jobs and border security issues.
Obama will once again face the challenge of leading the country with a divided Congress, as Democrats retained control of the Senate and Republicans maintained their hold over the House of Representatives.
Indeed, Obama will be tasked with turning around a sluggish economy and reining in a national debt that tops $16 trillion and a budget deficit that has reached $1 trillion.
When it comes to the issue of most concern to voters, a national exit poll found that 59 per cent of voters believe the economy is the top issue facing the nation.
Tuesday’s exit poll of more than 19,000 voters conducted by Edison Research for The Associated Press and the major U.S. networks also found that:
Just under four in 10 voters said unemployment was the biggest economic problem they are facing.
Four in 10 voters said the economy is improving, while 3 in 10 said it is getting worse.
As voters headed to the polls earlier Tuesday, long lines at polling stations and concerns that some residents affected by Hurricane Sandy would be left disenfranchised raised the spectre of a protracted court battle like the one that marred the 2000 vote.
More than 45 million voters had cast ballots before election day in early voting. However, voters in several states complained of long lineups, while others encountered technical glitches, including one voting machine in Pennsylvania that indicated a vote had been cast for Romney when the Obama button was pressed.
In other precincts, voters complained of robocalls giving them false voting information.
Romney Took Early Lead
As polls began closing at the dinner hour on the East Coast, Romney took a handful of states, including Kentucky and its eight electoral votes, followed by West Virginia, Indiana and South Carolina.
Obama was quickly declared the winner in Vermont, taking its three electoral votes, and sat there until nine states came through for him, including his home state of Illinois and its 20 electoral votes.
Unlike Obama, Romney lost his home state, with Massachusetts’ 11 electoral votes going to the president.
Romney had been ahead for much of the evening, bolstered by wins in Texas, Arizona and North Carolina, the latter being the only battleground state the GOP candidate ended up winning.
However, results posted shortly before 10 p.m. ET gave Obama Pennsylvania and its 20 electoral votes, shortly after he won Michigan and its 16 electoral votes, as well as New York and its 29 votes and New Jersey’s 14 votes. Romney took Texas as expected and its 38 electoral votes.
Romney attended a last-minute rally in Pennsylvania Tuesday afternoon in what turned out to be a fruitless bid to appeal to undecided voters in the state.
But hours after polls closed, a victor had yet to be declared in major battleground states such as Ohio, Virginia and Florida, which left the outcome unclear for some time.
Obama surged ahead with a victory in Colorado and Wisconsin, as well as California, Washington and Minnesota
CNN) – Most 18-year-olds are excited for election Tuesday because it will be their first chance to vote. Aziz Akbari is excited for a different reason: his name is on a ballot.
Akbari is a sophomore at the University of Southern California studying mechanical engineering, and this year he’s thrown his hat in the ring for mayor of his hometown of Fremont, California.
[:59] “I’ve been going to city council meetings since I was 8 years old,” Akbari says. “And I’ve been involved in local politics ever since then.”
Akbari campaigns from his dorm room all week with the help of his campaign staff, and flies home every weekend to go door-to-door, press the flesh, and push his four-point plan to boost Fremont’s economy.
But if Akbari is elected, he certainly won’t be the first teen to take charge of a city or a district.
John Tyler Hammons served two terms as mayor of Muskogee, Oklahoma after being elected as a college freshman, and Michael Sessions famously ran the city of Hillsdale, Michigan from his bedroom in his parents’ house as a high school senior.
Nick Kettle won a seat on the Rhode Island state senate at 19, but to garner support he had to go outside of his own home.
[3:15] “My parents were absolutely dead set against me running. I came home from declaring and my father screamed at me for like ten minutes saying, ‘why are you doing this? You have no platform. I’m not even going to vote for you.’ They thought I was absolutely crazy.”
Kettle, Hammons and Sessions all have advice for Akbari, and some reflections on their own time in office, as they share what it’s like to be a teenage politician What it takes to be a teen politician by CNN click the link to listen ..
Mitt Romney deserves one bit of kudos. After essentially sabotaging his campaign with those dreadful 47 percent remarks, he managed to claw back a comeback when President Obama failed to really show up in that first presidential debate.
But thankfully, Obama has since come roaring back, going toe to toe with Romney and hitting the Mittster right where it hurts several times during the debates.
According to the most recent poll data, if you’re black, you’re already likely to vote for President Obama. In fact, pretty much every minority group is throwing their weight behind Obama.
The only group that’s staunchly in the trenches for Mitt Romney are white males.
HA! And people complain about blacks voting for Obama because of identity politics….
White men overwhelmingly support Mitt Romney’s candidacy with one poll finding that 65 percent of white men are rooting for Romney over Obama. But dudes, here are a few good reasons to NOT VOTE for Mitt Romney.
1. Mitt Romney Looks Like Jonah Jameson, Peter Parker’s Boss
Spider-Man is pretty much every little boy’s hero and Jonah Jameson, the boss of his human alter ego Peter Parker, is nothing but a chain-smoking, pompous, arrogrant prick who tries to tear Spider-Man down with the might of his platform, The Daily Bugle. And Mitt Romney looks just like him. Don’t vote for the man who’d try to stamp out Spider-Man, if given the chance!
2. Mitt Romney Makes Babies Cry
Babies know how to sense corporate greed and evil when they’re around it, and many people don’t want another whiff of that load of horseshit. It’s funny that despite his pro-abortion stance, Mitt Romney = the anti-baby candidate.
3. Mitt Romney Farts on the Kids
We know Romney is full of hot air, but that’s no excuse for passing gas in front of innocent children. He’s a lil’ McNasty, as the Fresh Prince of Bel Air would say.
4. Mitt Romney Kisses with His Eyes Open
When Mitt Romney wants to lay a lil’ lovin’ on his Stepford wife, Ann, he can’t even be bothered to get into it and close his eyes. He probably has sex with the lights on too. If he can’t even trust his wife while getting intimate, do we really want to trust Mitt Romney with the most intimate secrets of America? Perhaps not
5. Mitt Romney Is Not Opposed to Child Labor
So we complain about China and its child labor abuse, but here Mitt Romney is, putting small children to work for his campaign. Mitt made it clear that he wants to shut down Sesame Street and now we know why: He wants to put America’s children to work.
White men of America, please don’t make the mistake of jumping on board the Romney bandwagon. Trust us, the Obama train has better finger foods, free coffee and better celebrities.
Romney is riding dirty with that bumbling old fool Clint Eastwood, while Obama is pulling in sexy white bitches like Katy Perry.
Seriously, bro. Which election party would YOU rather be at on Tuesday night? Make the right call.
I never liked football during my childhood,the game used to confuse me,i would rather play with toys all day.To me football was for those bullies and the big boys around my neighborhood ,but what always caught my mind was when the ball entered the net,it caught me by surprise seeing those big boys cheer around with joy,while others cry with pain.It kept me ask myself why play the game then if the outcome is either joy or sadness.
This afternoon there was a big match ,our street team was playing against "mkomboro" (dark lions ) "mkomboro" was the strongest team ,they trained everyday ,they had donors and the fact that they had those shiny silky jerseys and good football shoes it made our street team aghast ,as they were nick named the dark lions ,they had big bodies comparing to our team.
As the ball started everyone was cheering at the "Mkomboro" even the people from our team became traitors,surely i couldn't understand how this game can have traitors ,as young as i was i had lot in mind and came to realize that they were all scared of the bullies ..
After the first half my street team was already beaten 2 goals and we had nothing ,most of the players in our team were injured and every one that was asked to cover the places of the injured members everyone turned their backs..
Joseph our street team captain stared at me quite for a while and called me,"dress up boy".
Asked myself dress up for what ,he pushed me inside and told me "you are going to play ,and you are going to make as win". I got numb ,the fact i hated this game wasn't a problem ,the problem was i had never played this game before,i was pushed inside ,but all i did was just stand right there and wait until the ball reached my legs,as time passed Faraja our midfielder got as pass from Shushu one of our best defenders ,Faraja never made a mistake,one strong shot and we were all cheering with joy .
I remember the entire 40 minutes in the ground i never touched the ball with my feet..
We only had 3 minutes till the final whistle,Shushu made a forward pass and it finally reached my feet and i was facing the mkomboro's goal,their goal keeper came with force to sweep me but my adrenaline made me shoot with fear...and it was in ...it was a goal..everybody cheered and i remember being carried up...
And the full time whistle was blown ,it was a 2-2 ,those who called me nerd they called me champion..
I was the topic everybody talked about me ,Joseph our team captain agreed to train me to become better...Thanks to the bullies now i love soccer..

They have always preached of peace
They empowered Woman
They Love Entertainment
They have promoted sports
They are very calm presidents but when provoked they turn to bad news
I have always known that mothers are the most caring people to Children ,they have a loving heart ..How does it feel having a mother that wants to kill you ? it can be very sad knowing the woman who brought you to earth wants to kill you..
In my schooling life i heard a lot about FGM (female genital mutilation) ,its a sad topic ,i remember during my secondary schooling back then my Civics teacher Mr.Kijanga always told us how cruel this FGM can be..
Laodicean they can be ,what good does it bring circumcising a young Girl...
This happened in my country Tanzania just few days ago ,a young baby girl called Shamla Saidi died after bleeding too much ,this young girl was circumcised by an old lady of about 60 years old known as Asha Salimu ,the mother of the young baby known as Tausi Kassim (24) willingly took the young baby who was only four month to get Circumcised .
All this was led by superstitions ,after the victims were taken to court it was realized that the mother of the baby complained to much that the child was unseldom vomiting and diarrhea ,they were convinced that the 4 month new born was suffering from a disease known as "Lawalawa",so the only cure of the disease was circumcision.
I would have no mercy on draconian people like this mother and her colleagues ,i would suggest they should be sentenced to life in prison.
My drinking mate Minja is one of the people i like hanging out with ,despite of his perverted mind he is a good thinker.
This weekend as we paralyze our minds with the chilled Smirnoff Ice ,he laughs and tells me on how he gets surprised with Tanzania leaders?
He asks
: would you force yourself too speak a language that you are not good with?
Msongo: What is in your mind?
He was surprised on how our politicians can force themselves to speak English while they cant .
Coming to think of it this is a big problem ,English !!
In poor countries especillay Africa many Children have to learn through a language of small minority ,a language neither they nor their teachers master well..How is it possible to give quality education for all in a language mastered by few?
Why force a student to learn Civics in a language that he/she doesn't understand,how does Civics of Tanzania interfere with English..thinking why isn't it taught in Swahili but i cant get a clue.
