Artists

Is it true?
that it is nice to date artistic people?

my ex is a graphic atrist and truth be told
he did see beauty in everything..............

someone said to me recently
she has always wanted to meet a painter
because of their ability to see beauty in everything
then capture it and leave it for all to see
(ok,i am a fraud--got it from a movie,Cherry Crush)

another graphic artist friend who whilst
working in an advertising agency
once told me i lie for a living so i guess i am a good liar
but he did also see beauty in everything

so it has occurred to me

artists see beauty in everything

any contrary opinion?

The fire that is put in a child's palm by his father will not hurt him

A man who wants to lead other men will see spirits on his way

A man who wants to swallow an ugala seed must first consider the size of his anus

No father sends his child to the market to buy salt then invokes rain on him

Lets find a black goat before it becomes dark

When an animal feels an itch on its back,it scratches on a tree
but a man calls his fellow man
(proverbs from ultimate warriors-naija movie)
yea-i watched it and even wrote down the proverbs

U have no business marrying someone with emotional,
psychological,physical features u cant work with
then expect him or her to change

Just 1 cigarette narrows the artery,raises the blood pressure and puts an extra strain on the heart for 1hr30mins-do smokers know this?

saw the movie
escape from sobibor
again a few days ago
i am just glad
i wasnt part of all that inhumanity

MAD????

How mad do you get?

I once heard of a man who burst a vein in his eye
cos he got sooooooooo mad at his wife
i wonder what she did?
*wink*

but really how mad is mad?
mad enuff to hit?
mad enuff to kill?
mad enuff to maim?
mad enuff to hurt?
madf enuff to insult?

i learnt a long time ago to control my anger
then i developed the art of delivering missles in mails,texts,calls
so i am not tempted to hit,maim,kill,hurt
(was never allowed to perfect the act of maiming with my younger ones)
i never learnt the art of fighting either
i am as the french will say
Je suis mince
i dont have a large frame
so i refuse to allow anyone annoy me to a lava producing stage
(as i no fit fight)
*wink*
to this day it baffles me
why did i not join the world of karate and judo in uni?
my roommate had a brown belt in judo

ironically,some people just know exactly what to do/say
to turn you into a human volcano
i actually feel my blood boil at such instances......

its sooooooo easy to fly into a rage and hurl insults at a person
that gets me that mad
fortunately or unfortunately
i ONLY say the word sorry to people.....
who are ill,bereaved,have lost something.........
hardly ever to anyone who got the end of my tongue
cos when i do it(hurl it)
either to ur face or via whatever medium......
I USUALLY MEAN IT

so those who see me keeping mute..................

Warning!!!!!!!!!!

Please Inform all your Female Friends !!!!!

A woman at a bar on a Saturday night was taken by 5 men, who, according to hospital and police reports, gang raped her before dumping her. Unable to remember the events of the evening, tests later confirmed the repeat rapes, along with traces of Rohypnol in her blood and Progesterex, essentially a small sterilization pill.

The drug is now being used by rapists at parties to rape AND sterilize their victims. Progesterex is available to vets to sterilize large animals. Progesterex is being used together with Rohypnol, the date rape drug.

As with Rohypnol, all they have to do is drop it into the girl's drink. The girl can't remember a thing the next morning, of all that had taken place the night before. Progesterex, which dissolves in drinks just as easily, is such that the victim doesn't get pregnant; she won't conceive from the rape and the rapist needn't worry about having a paternity test identifying him months later.

The drug's effects ARE NOT TEMPORARY - They are P*E*R*M*A*N* E*N*T!!! Progesterex was designed to sterilize horses.. Any female who takes it will NEVER BE ABLE TO CONCEIVE... The weasels can get this drug from anyone who is in the vet school or any university.

It's that easy, and Progesterex is about to break out big on campuses everywhere. Believe it or not, there are even sites on the Internet telling people how to use it.
Please forward this to everyone you know, especially girls.. Be careful when you're out and don't leave your drink unattended.

Please make the effort to forward this on to all you know... Guys, please inform all your female friends and relatives!

First time..............

it was sheer bliss as he moved within her
what a wonderful part of love this is
how beautiful and special to have two bodies
joined as one
to have such powerful feelings surge through them both
to discover such love together
there's no way to fully share one's self
with another
except through lovemaking


excerpt from a novel
brings up a few questions

is it true there's no way to fully share one's self with another
except through lovemaking?

was anyone's first time
the way it is painted in novels?
mills and boon made me believe so
but in reality
no be so(it aiint that way)
abi na only me?(is it only me)
*wink*

A little of this and that

The most stupid part of a man's anatomy is his phallus
it has a head
no brain
lives in front of two nuts
and lives around the corner from an arsehole

Women want EVERTHING
Men want THREE things
food
sex
silence
as long as u can feed him
fuck him
AND keep quiet
most men would die happy

A woman knows within the first five minutes
of meeting a man especially
after a handshake
if she will sleep with a guy

the happiest people make the best of everything
they dont have the best of everything

what lies behind us and before us
is nothing compared to
what lies within us
fan it into flames

it takes a real man to fall in love
allowing someone else control his feelings

anyone can father a child
but only a man can be a father to a child

men lie all the time...i was at Tony's home
women tell the biggest lies...it's your baby

it doesnt matter
where,how,when you meet
its what keeps you together that is the mystery

there are two kinds of men
those that like the chasing
those that like the having

the only difference between an expert lover
and one who is merely adedquate
is the degree with which he/she can perceive
and satisfy a partners's deepest needs

luck is when preparation meets opportunity

SNIPPETS

he who laughs last.....is a stammerer
those who live by the sword....isoko people(no offence intended)
little drops of water......from the tap
let sleeping dogs lie......not possible,calabar people dey here(no offence intended)
birds of the same feather....are from the same mother


babies have no hair(white babies)
an old man's head is bare
between the cradle and the grave lies a haircut and a shave

Hating people is like burning your home to kill a rat

let a jealous man envy you,your joy is enough punishment for him

a short man hangs his coat where his hands can reach it

ignorance is degrading only when found in the company of riches

a rich widow is a nymphomaniac who owns a liquor store(not fair)

you cant hold on to the past and still ride off into the future

to lead an orchestra you must turn you back to the crowd

show me a thoroughly satisfied man and i will show u a failure

the sun will shine on those who stand before it shines on those who kneel

when the moon is shining,the cripple becomes hungry for a walk

mountains meet only through their shadows

the moment you stop learning,you stop leading

a crab which swims in hot water,wants to turn red

ORIKI

an oriki loosely translated
is an ancestral song/rhyme that is used to perk up one's spirits(i guess)
well i hear mine when i'm down in the dumps and my gran tries to make me smile
she always succeeds(u would soon know why)
anyone know the translation of ORIKI?
educate me please

read on someone's blog a while ago
cant remember whose(sorry) about her love for her oriki
i actually know mine
and if u believe i know the following off-hand
then u can believe anything

Ota Odo
omo arodede
omoola sowan(a child of wealth is scarce-priceless,not common)LOL
omo amula eleji pokowoo
omo ola lo
omo aribi dege
ola potiti ola onipekun
afi aagara ola dami
aya mi pupa kosi nile(my fair-skinned wife isnt home)
koje kinse alejo(so i cant see off guests)
dudu ile komo obe se(my dark-skinned wife who is home,is a bad cook)
ijanpere koje kin mu isu loko(i cant make it to the farm to get yam bcos of ijanpere)
isu wa nile ko si obe(i have yam at home but there's no knife)
mofi iru yo lota(i used dadawa to season it)

cant translate it all but the part i have always loved is translated
reminds me of an interview i had a few years back
she asked for my star-i am libran
she also asked for my hometown(odd questions dont u think?)
soon as i said Abeokuta in Ogun state.....
she said......."Abeokuta people are lazy"
stupid me i actually agreed
but u would agree too if u had an oriki such as mine
drummed into ur ears before u could speak the language
soon as i could speak the language
the meaning of the last few verses always made me laugh
my people must be mighty lazy

ijanpere by the way is a crazy-ass ant type insect
whose sting in large doses is deadly even to man
so.if they are on the way to ur farm
u try to kill them
go back home(like my people do)
or get ready to be buried cos they will swarm u like bees

sorry........long post
anyone think i am lazy?????????
read my profile
LOL

Anyone agree?

saw a movie yesterday Deathwatch
and i got miffed
i know only a few words in German
how come there was no translation
to explain to those of us who would have liked
to see,hear what the guy was warning them about????
please translate once you speak a different language
anyone agree?

The only way to rid yourself of temptation
is to yeild to it
or substitute with something more tempting
(culled from the movie After the Sunset)
anyone agree?

we like people for their qualities
love them for their defects
anyone agree?

guys like.......
a rough touch
sexy women
the "view"
first time inside feel
love to be told what to do
love it wild and animalistic
quickies
anyone agree?

to get a guy coming back for more....
inspire a repeat(of what?)
pay attention(to what?)
have fone sex
anyone agree?

more later..............
