OSAMA DEAD!!!!!!! AL QAEDA???????

   Im sure at this very moment the entire globe has been informed of Osama bin Laden's death.  Whether you found out by listening to Obama's speech where he stated firmly that "justice has been served," or you found
out by flipping through the channels and noticing a bunch of overly excited American citizens dancing, jumping, waving & laughing right on the front steps of the white house like I did.  Hmmm, first thought to escape through my lips were....are they sure he's really dead,  I mean, that's what they said a few years ago, but according Obama administration officials DNA proves 99.9% that in fact it is the body of the man who was born Osama bin Mohammed bin Awad bin Laden (March 10 1957-May 2 2011).
  This man was born in Saudi Arabia to a man once poor who made well for himself and a woman who was the 10th wife to Osama's biological father. Osama's parents divorced & his mother remarried, he lived with his 3 half brothers and 1 half sister, he also had about 43 other siblings by his father who of course had more than enough wives.  Osama himself followed his fathers footsteps, growing up a devout Wahhabi Muslim he too married 4 wives, 2 of them whom held docotorate degress in psychology...interesting right?!  That's what I said.
  The main belief of Osama was that in order for things in the world to be right again Sharia law (the religious law of Islam) needed to be restored!  Clearly it was evident that he was passionate in this, because he built an entire empire of millitant followers quietly and quickly, (something I strongly believe the United States was well aware of)  As for the attacks he carried out I consider them devastating & heartless and in fact un-called for, however I see another side, and some of you may feel scorned by this or even rebel against me.  Growing up in a Christian household to Christian parents who both once were Muslim at a point (father converted when I was 10 mother at birth) I have come to realize that Muslims come off as the most devout in their religious beliefs.  I mean, who else blows themselves up to save others.  It sounds funny to me as I say it, but what other collection of people can say they believed in something so much that they were indeed willing do die so that others may see THE WAY???!!  Ummm, Hitler killed millions of Jews, the Europeans/Americans killed Africans during the slave trade, the Euro-Australians wiped out the Aborigins of Australia, they all killed OTHERS to make a statement, but the Muslims...well, they kill themselves.   Now before you all go ranting and calling me "ig-nant"  I know not ALL devout Muslims do this.  Of course not.
    Every race, every religion and I guess even animals have their groups of fanatics.  Just as every country has their homeless & their rich, their fancy & their ghetto.  Even Chrisitians have fanatics.  What about the Crusaders (Christians) who killed off thousands of Jews on their way to "conquering the Holy Land?" or the so called Christian brother Stephen John Jordi who planned the abortion clinic bombing....thats a fanatic move too!  In Judaism certain tribes were subject to extermination!!!!  Who is the nicer guy here, I think no one, unfortunately Islam seems to get much more air time & press about their stuff. 
  Then we have my brothers & sisters, the Christians who teach us day in and day out NOT to JUDGE, that it is not our rightful place, but if there is one thing I have learned over the years, JUDGING is what Christians do best, and I almost can't stand it, but hey, who am I?... I judged the girl with the extra long acrylic finger nails with painted dollar signs on them the other day. lol
  Anyway back to the deceased man of the month, Mr. Osama or Oussama. now that he is gone what next?  Tanya goes back to licking her ice cream, Tiffany continues driving her 4 children to work at 7:35am every morning, Linda stays on probation, John get's a promotion, I continue writing on my blog????  Or do we brace for another attack?!   Ha... United States of A, as much as I hate to say so.... the traditional Muslim burial of Mr Osama means nothing, we just may have tickled the feet of his followers & now they are laughing at us.  Let me say this.  KILLING OSAMA DOES NOT KILL THE BELIEFS OF HIS PEOPLE.  Osama may have been an influencial leader, but he was only ONE man & when one man has a mass behind him, his death mean another will rise!  Think about it since when has violence ever died out, since the begining of time when Cain (son of Adam & Eve) killed his brother Abel because his offerings were rejected.  He was angry, and boy I'm sure the same goes for the "fanatics" of Islam.  So for everyone who is celebrating another man's death... how many of you are Christian/Catholic/Jew/Hindu etc and believe in peace?  The many of you who are shouting praises to his demise are the same people who will teach your children that killing another man is wrong.  Osama killed people, he was wrong!  U.S.A killed Osama, we are wrong!  Hate what I say, this is what I feel.  People yell peace but expect to recieve it by imitating the eye for an eye.  How do you see this through your eye(s)?
Osama's children say he was a dedicated father and not a terrorist, I'm sure you don't believe so?!  So my question is, what about the walking terrorists we have on our streets, the rapist, the serial killers and dude next door who stole your the GPS out of your car?  We cant hate Muslim's or in fact Islam, it is what they believe...Osama is who he was, and his fanatical ways is what we should be against... he took the Quran out of context and exploded it.  So for all you ignorants & "ig-nan'ts" out there who snap your necks when you see a turban or make smelly faces when a lady in her full hijab or Niqab walks by...please get over yourself, you might not look so hot in your True Religion jeans and Polo shoes yourself   ;)
Hmph...do you reeeeeaaaaaaalllllllly think you should be celebrating?? ...For lack of words... America this is NOT THE END... lets see.

TONTO DIKE - to act or not to act??

To all my folks, and all those who watch Nigerian/African movies, many of you are very familiar with the very popular Ms. Tonto Dike.  I guess you can call her Nigeria's new blend of Rihanna/Angelina Jolie and even a blend of Madea attitude.  It seems like our Nollywood actress has found herself twisted in an "image" war of what her fans believe she should be.  Tonto is known for playing not only the scandelous, but the sexy, risky, outwitted, flamboyant, rude, loud, raz, and many a times deviously intelligent roles. 
Soon to be 26 year old Tonto hails from Ekwere, Port Harcourt, Rivers state, a beautifil lady who's features stand out, her roles in the Nollywood movies has taken her quite far, movies such as Beyond Conspiracy, The Plain Truth,  and Garden Love.   Maybe you dont know, but one of her recent movies "DIRTY SECRET" has the whole of Naija & Ghana chatting loud.  Now I watched that movie, and that title fits perfectly.  Not only does that movie hover a great secret, but boy, that secret is believely dirty!!!!  The movie was produced by Sanga Entertainment where Ms. Tonto goes what you may call semi nude and uses alot of "tongue," who she uses the tongue with i wont tell, i say watch the movie yourself.   The explicit scenes (meaning plenty of skin & lude language) in this movie has Tonto's religious fans talking, attacking her role and calling it soft porn.  Many are wondering why the well known fab actress engages in such role and question of whether she draws the line of what role she does and does not play.
Now, I have watched this movie, all of its 2000 parts (like every niaja movie lol) and I can say my jaw dropped at the "secret."  It is actually a very good movie, interesting story twist, and I enjoyed the suspense.  Tonto did her thing as she usually does, but many ask... is she going to far?  Some accuse her of thinking she is a "Hollywood" star and that she is trying to hard.  Many ask where is the professionalism? Or would you say that her being open to play any role is what makes her the true professional she claims to be?  Tonto quotes, "how else do you want our movie industry to improve?  Americans do it and they are better than Africa on all grounds."  Wait.... is she seriously comparing American movies and African movies???????  I really hope not, because it is two different cultures and two types of expectations.  One fan had replied and quoted "there are better ways to make the industry grow, where have we thrown our sense of decency?" Another fan states how she finds such roles disgraceful, she quotes in question, "Nigerians are doing the porn thing now?"   Tonto continues to receive backlash and criticism on her "out there" roles ...but you as my reader tell me what you think.

*Does Tonto take her roles too far?  I mean she does show quite a bit of skin, and her foul language, well you could call it Hollywood inspired (though I havent watched many American movies where they curse that much) and seriously *it seems as though she is trying hard to go from Nollywood style to Hollywood style, is that the Naija way, oh and whats up with the Rihanna tatoo she has imitated on the side of her neck????

GONE FOR A MINUTE,.... NOW IM BACK!

Good evening ladies & gents.  Wow, so its been quite some time, last posting was pretty much a year ago!  I wonder what the great distraction was, but nevertheless my continuous writing i never did stop.  As you all know poetry I've deemed my second language, and so though I may not have been updating my blogs I made sure to continue creating my poetic visions on lined paper, blank paper, journals & notebooks, even on a styrofoam cup once :)    So, as previously mentioned, I'm back, it is now 2011, a year of fulfillment, prosperity, enjoyment and irieness, I'm happy to say I have been blessed thus far plus sure there is much more to come.  The next blog will be up in a bit, but here are some interesting laws I came across to start you off.
