God has returned!!!!!



Anfield's prodigal son has returned!This must have been one of the things that led to this.Blondie it's time to pick up your game.
ps:This post must be greek for non EPL fans....
pps:They actually do call him God....

Think about it...

From a blog I enjoy reading once in while:
Sometimes I think the purpose of adulthood is to survive what your parents did to you (even well intended ones.) Those things can run from the horrid -- abuse -- to the mundane, such as not being as neat as your father or mother.

What's really frightening -- and I think everyone but orphans go through this -- but you will say something and you'll think "oh my God, that's my mother talking, or my father talking" and you realize they are programmed in you....mom and dad, whether alive or not, are still lurking in there....


According to me this becomes more apparent the older that you get.What have you ever found yourself doing that made you think,"surely I am turning into dad/mum!"

Friday!

I knew I had been infected by American ignorance after this conversation yesterday.I was talking to my younger sister who has been here around 5 years.
Small sis: I was watching this show on the travel channel and it seems Djibouti is a hard place to live.
Aco: That's in Ethiopia isn't it?
In my defense it was a long day.

How most Americans go to get togethers.
1.Get ready, buy 6 pack or bottle of Vodka, get to party house, say wsup to all and distribute what you came with to all, drink as fast as possible and make it home under buddies support

1.Get ready, get to party house, say wsup to all and distribute rib cracking stories, drink as slowly as possible and make it home with as much take away liqour for being the last man standing
ps:Another Friday at the gym with a hangover.This isnt fun it's punishment

The one advantage of being the token black guy at some of these bashes is that so many white college boys want to hang with you so you can sign their ghetto pass and for those who get really curious about where I am from I sign their safari passes.As long as they don't act the fool and there is free booze, I am available on select dates.My resolution was against spending money on the hooch not drinking it.

Sometimes dealing with women is like making chapatis.Sometimes you have to be gentle,rub and caress their egos and other times you have to beat and roll the lumps out of it so as to have a well rounded chapati to cook.- Acolyte 2006 ©

Mind can't focus long enough to complete more then one cohesive paragraph.Time to go to sleep and regenerate brain cells!

Instruments of pain

When it comes to physical activity Ms K, Guess and other KBW gym rats
are not the only ones spending lots of time grunting and sweating
(with no climax involved). I too have been spending alot of time in
the gym lately, at least 4 times a week at last count.So I got to
looking at the gym machines we have an concluded that the makers of
these machines owe a large debt to the medieval tortures and the
priest of the spanish inquistion due to the similarity in design to
their tools of trade.See here:

This machine is for those of us who aspire to have a washboard stomach.So what happens is that you set the weight that you feel your "one pack" can handle, sit in the machine, put your legs behind those thingies,hold the handles above and contract your body to lift the weight.What I can say is that it burns!So Imagine all you have to do is to increase the range of motion of the machine to like 270%, turn those handles into restraints,pump up the weight and have a crank where you can then contract and expand the victim; voila torture machine!



Now this machine is for those of you whowant to have large triceps (the part of the arm behin the arm that turns into wings in the case of fat mathees and Nick).So you sit down and place your elbows on the supports and push those handles down moving the weight you have placed.Now all that has to be done is to have the handles turned into restraints and already have them at the full extension angle and what you have to do is to tell the truth before the weight that has been placed on the handles manipulates your arms to degrees that they were not created to and they snap like
twigs.


Leg machines also have lots of possibilities.For this machine you set your weight of choice and sit
down then you raise your legs to push the weight (the motion is like
you are on a high bench swinging your leg).Now to convert this baby
all you have to do is make that part where you put your feet be
behind your calf and the insquisitor turns a crank where you are
slowly folded like a slice of bread with magerine in the middle as
your thighs eventually meet your chest.I have thought of two other
modifications but I know you readers at home think I have lost the
script so I'm going to keep them to myself.

equipment and legal charges from civil suits from those injured

Life Imitating Art

First of all it is interesting how life imitates art.In the last post I had spoofed global voices online Kenya about the way my blog can never show up because of the way the content is off the wall.Until mutumia pointed this out to me:

Kenyan Sphere Roundup


Sub-Saharan Africa, Kenya, Weblog
First thing, condolences to the families of Kenyans who died as a result of the collapse of a six storey building in Nairobi on monday. As reported by the Standard newspaper, “At least 10 people were confirmed dead. By 10.45 pm at least 75 victims, with various degrees of injuries, had been pulled out of the heap of concrete blocks and dust.”Acolyte on reading about the collapse of the building, notes at the end of this post “That’s so sad.It seems people never seem to learn from similar disasters of the past.Are we destined to repeat our mistakes ad infinitum?”
Best of all they previewed a part of my blog when I am not instigating,insulting and spoofing!So I actually sound cultured and civic minded!Gotta love the people on Global Voices Online!
