Once in a lifetime? Maybe not. posted on July 8, 2010 - 5:18pm

Trying to take the shine off ‘OUR’ world cup are you?  Well you do have a point when you say that no other African country can organize a tournament of this magnitude, what with the poor infrastructure, not just in transport and communications but in health and food establishments as well, But I will have you know that this world cup has given more Africans and Ugandans as well a chance to experience first hand the excitement and glamour surrounding one of the world’s biggest….. scratch that ….. the biggest sporting event in history, Super bowl don’t count in Africa.

Currently watching Royal pains a USA cable tv show that simply rocks, am lovin’ every second mostly because Evan, Hanks blundering, pathetically clueless brother brings some  refreshing half witted humor, he may lack the seemingly incoherent intellectual banter that makes Eli of SG-U or Topher of Dollhouse so appealing but what he lacks he more than makes up for with his innovative schemes and his self professed love for the good things in life not the least of which is of course sexy ladies of which there are plenty in the Hamptons which is by the way in case I forgot to mention where this show is set. and if you’ve watched the show do you notice a startling similarity between Evan and Kevin Walker, yes, Sarah and Kitty’s bro. You could say it’s private practice meets brothers and sisters.

Just came up for air, that’s all, been a while, not sure what to say, maybe I’ll just take a swipe at music fans who like b.o.b’s ‘Nothing on you’ what a boring piece of work, I know I’m getting old but even then, there are some songs that don’t deserve to be number one. Speaking of which isn’t Raymond vs Raymond the tits? I mean is that one sublime spectacular album or what? that dude should never have gotten married in the first place, I mean some guys were just born to be bachelors, a gift from god to the female species,  am sure even princess would agree.
Mean while Lulu came into office sporting some elegant braids on her head, she gave new meaning to the word hot, if I wasn’t in my second week of therapy for sex addiction I would have asked her to have my ……….what are they called? little irritating things that wail and make noise, gulp milk like it’s H2O and expect you to change their stinkin nappies after that.

Kells you tha man! posted on February 3, 2010 - 2:42pm

Strip for you was his third song and by far my most memorable moment of the concert, people are bitching about the show being agonizingly short and mismanaged but much as I agree that there were quite a number of glitches I would like to stress that even before last Friday it was evident that everyone and their mama would descend upon Lugogo, so if anyone came expecting not to push scratch and scream their way in they must be bonkers. One hour of R Kelly to me felt like forever and I have to take my hat off for Zain.

Darkness at noon: The misty pearl. posted on December 11, 2009 - 4:30pm

If I spent countless cold and wet nights in the bush, had to endure the horror and panic of gun battle after gun battle, watched my comrades drop dead or maimed for life right next to me as I fled for dear life from enemy soldiers in Luwero, if I endured all this, it is my inherent right to eat and keep eating until I get my fill, at what point I am supposed to stop eating and start caring for the well being and development of my impoverished citizens is entirely up to me, no one has a right to judge or criticize me let alone threaten me with prosecution for corruption.

Silent night, holy crap! posted on December 6, 2009 - 3:47pm

Here we go again………I don’t hate Christmas, please Oh! God no, don’t get me wrong, I simply loathe it.
The only reason you’d wish me a merry Christmas and send me a card is the same reason you’d greet me good morning, a perfunctory gesture that is as empty as it is careless, we have become conditioned to perform a set of mechanized rituals that are nothing more than reflex reactions to our environment.

Dumb beauty queens and me. posted on November 12, 2009 - 9:23pm

A beauty pageant is supposed to showcase elegance, style and culture, suffice it to say the Miss Kyengera beauty pageant was lacking in all aspects save one which is unfortunately not one of the benchmarks, comedy.
Having never officiated as a judge in any capacity whatsoever be it an ant race, to say that my nervousness was bordering on hysteria would be putting it mildly. To begin with not all the contestants were in the house by the time the show kicked off, they started trickling in much later after the opening round which was ‘what would you wear on a date?’ was coming to an end, that alleviated my apprehension somewhat because my points roster swelled from 4 contestants to 10 Phew! Did I just say points roster? Well that’s something I made up on the spur of the moment, given that the organizer asked me to officiate an hour before the contest.

Got there at nine skipped out of the taxi and climbed the steep curb turn leading up to Mateos, I wore that facial expression that people usually put on when expecting to meet a distant relative or a long lost friend, you know the one that’s half way between a forced smile and feigned surprise.
Well that expression turned into utter bewilderment when my eyes scanned the entire  pavement seating area and finding no one closely resembling a blogger, several thoughts raced through my mind one of which was that I had  been away too long that the entire blogging fraternity had metamorphosed into a different species all together with altered DNA.

Bellytime posted on September 6, 2009 - 4:20pm

How do I develop a six pack? That’s the question I just entered into the google search bar. In case you haven’t guessed already the endless beer nights and a job where you take the occasional stroll from your desk to the studio have taken their toll on my belly and turned it into a fat waste basket, all the fat that ends up on the belly must be undesired by the rest of the body coz it is just grosses me out.
I’m ashamed to look at Beckford Photos they only make you want to hide your head in the sand and hope the world could end in the next 2 seconds.
How is it that Africans look at a pot belly as a sign of prestige and wealth, a man without a belly feels as inept as a Kabaka without Ebyaffe, or street sider and Rhino without their lappies

Braveheart Vs Troy posted on August 4, 2009 - 6:38pm

Looks like the enemy has reached our shores and is steadily marching towards my castle, the look out scouts have reliably informed me that our troops are outnumbered 3 to 1, with such superior numbers against us, my army however vastly experienced wont be able to hold the enemy back for more that five days, I could barricade the entire population behind the city walls and hope to tire out the invader by forcing him to engage in a long and exhausting siege of the city but that would be inviting an even more debilitating foe, Hunger and his step cousin Disease. So here’s what I’m gonna do, am gon  take on the enemy head on in a battle that will determine the future of my people and the honour of my race, let everyman remember that the blogckers can take our lives but they can never take our freedom….CHARGE……………
