Give, then Save


"Ohis, GIVE!" she says.

She says it's a troubleshooter and future savings to my problems. She always teaches me to give, then save. Giving is what she emphasizes on more. And it's like through out my life, I have had more than enough people come to me for help which as a result makes me don't have a dime to my name.

Give and it shall be given unto you, and truly it has, because every time I go through any form of stress and breakdown, someone somewhere takes it up from there. My life, especially recently, has been said to be like a ladder soaked in grease. It's easy for me to slip and fall, but it seems as if I have more than two hands and two legs.

Now I understand the theory, because it's being practiced by me.

Save, but if there's someone who really needs assistance, then give. It comes back to you in a thousand fold.

Bernie Mac and Isaac Hayes...Gone in 48 hours

Who's Bernie Mac? Do I know Isaac Hayes?

Well, those shouldn't be the questions in your head. If you live on earth and have laughed out loud before, then you should be on the same page to conclude Bernie Mac as one of the all time best comedians.

Writing about comedy, The Fresh Prince of Bel Air featured Isaac Hayes "Shaft" in an episode. It's one of my favorite episodes. Ask Will Smith for the title.

All I know is that I was shocked and speechless when I heard Bernie Mac died after a bout of pnemonia. Initially, I procrastinated when I had to write about him on my blog. This is because I didn't want to believe what I'd heard. The matter got worse when I heard the news that Isaac Hayes "Shaft", a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame was pronounced dead at Baptist Memorial Hospital-Memphis in Memphis, Tenn., after collapsing Sunday afternoon near a treadmill in his home nearby.

It's sickening that death has done this to these people. Our worry now should be on how to get more comedians involved since Bernie Mac owned half of it. Heaven just got much funnier while earth dropped fifty percent. Also, let me know when you find another human with a deep masculine bass voice as Isaac Hayes'.

They took 50 and 65 respectively.

Their works remain unique, and at such no other person's work can hark back to theirs.

We miss you, guys..

Are You a Blogger Yet?




Bloggings get bigger and better by the day, but it's not what I can write home about, is it? Oh, it's home already.

In essence instead of partaking in astrocious activities, I submit that you chanced to be vividly attached to bloggings which in the long run stands as an accomplishment of which you can be justly proud.

Trust me. There's no misconception about one's poured thoughts. Let loose your literary bias, and you are ready to go, and not go to the bad.

Forcing the Pace

It’s dawn without a switch
Never jealous of, but vexed at the rich.
In the mirror, I see my face
with anguish causing it to deface
Keeping the pace is no news
Let’s face it, situations-
sure can stand the pace
always up with a lark
to show my pace, yet-
its unhinging relic
creates funeral panic.

The pace of life and change is very fast and fierce
while steady pace lays the poor.

Call it the end time
war and riots,
with a sister in between, Terra
resulting in the release of delta forces.
Gale forces merging into hurricanes.
Amateur teenage girls turning mothers,
bearing like birds, mostly premature.
What more can I say
but for you to fill out the space....

Dull my lines
But let it be dawned on you.
It's crystal clear,
Forcing the pace is our trademark.

I'm Still Here


It's no doubt that I've been living in squalor for some weeks. The sleepless nights, my 072908's experience, the fear, shock, news, etc have created havoc in my head. The mere fact that I'm writing this increases the mental scars.

It's easy for me to draw the curtain, but why? Even the doctor has reassured me that there's no need for operation. He further stressed that all I need do is wait for a week and half or so. Soon, the baby will be born, and all these will be of the past.

A lil confusion is expected on this issue, but please do not get too confused. It's all literally written. I'll let the cat out of the bag when it's time.

Just like my sub-title of this blog says "a place for the unknowns, about-to-be-knowns, and knowns", this is "about-to-be-knowns".
