... THINKER'S ...

SWEET OLD ME!

Well, what a week! Been quite pleasant especially for those who support the Underdogs! I of course speak with reference to the World Cup. If you don't see what the big deal is about the World Cup then I regret to inform you that you are urgently in need of a life IMMEDIATELY. I do not mean as soon as possible -- I mean IMMEDIATELY. Naturally as soon as I show up at work one IE window is devoted to Soccer Net and another to The Official FIFA Site

And being a reasonable man who knows that somehow or the other his staff are going to watch the games, regardless of work hours, the boss of the establishment I consult for has availed a television for all the action. I tell you life does not get much better!

... SOCCER ...
World Cup!
Personally I have had a dream World Cup. Aside from the Turkey - Senegal match of course. Not only have I enjoyed every single match that I have watched (and I do believe I have watched them all) I have also make very good money from hapless ladies and gentlemen who have had the misguided notion to bet against me.

Limiting my wagers to the semis alone, I wagered that Brazil would see England to the British Airways boarding ramp against my boy Dennis and as soon as England scored friend Dennis very confidently raised the betting amount. I conceded with confidence. Well, we all know who pipped who there, didn't we? DENNIS YOU OWE ME MONEY! And then of course there was the Korea-Spain match. I am the only dude who was banking on Korea and I tell you I was the smallest of minorities. As a matter of fact I suspect that besides the Korean Embassy I was the only dude in this country backing the Koreans! Well, after that save from the goalie I watched strained grimaces appear on the countenances of hapless backers of Spain. Ah, what a world cup!

... HOYEE SENEGAL ...

Diouf, Diop, Diao, Camara, Sylva, Coly and the rest of the crew from Senegal I do say HATS OFF GENTLEMEN! You have done Senegal and Africa Proud! Personally I am proud of their performance and it was only ill luck that saw them bow out of the tournament. If that referee was doing his job that cad Ilhan would be warming the bench like rejoicing under the shadow of a red car. But that there's mere speculation. Hopefully Brazil will see the Turks to the airport. You, sirs, are the true winners of the World Cup as far as I am concerned!
... AARGH! ...

Can you relate? Sample this. You are very well acquainted with a dear friend. However, of late, anything you say or do or fail to say or fail to do is wrong. If you say hello there is fracas because you didn't say it early enough. If you don't say hello Jah save your sorry soul! Basically whatever you do is wrong. This situation is stressing my already strained sanity!

... URGENT ! ...

To George, Christine and other like minded garden gnomes and village maidens who cannot understand simple instructions such as if you don't like the site close the window and go mow a lawn with your teeth and a rubber band this is exclusively for you...

... HA HA!!! ...

A doctor at Mathare Metal Hospital decided to take his patients to a football game at Nyayo stadium. Gor Mahia were playing against AFC leopards and he wanted them to enjoy the game.

For weeks in advance, he tirelessly coached his patients to respond to his commands, conditioning them to listen to his instructions before they dud anything.

When the day of the game arrived, everything seemed to be going well. As the National Anthem started.......the doctor yelled, "Up Nuts" And the patients complied by standing up.

After the anthem ...he yelled, "Down Nuts". And they all sat back down in their seats.

After a a Gor Mahia player curled a ball into the net, the doctor yelled, "Cheer Nuts".

They all broke out into applause and cheered.

When the referee failed to award a penalty after a Gor Mahia player was felled in the penalty square , the Doctor yelled, "Booooo Nuts!!!" and they all started booing and cat calling.

Thinking things were going very well. The doctor decided to go get a soda to drink, leaving his assistant, a junior doctor in charge of the patients.

When he returned, there was a riot in progress. Everyone was fighting and yelling and throwing stones and chairs. Finding his assistant, the doctor asked,"I say, Jimmy, what in the world happened? "

The assistant replied soberly, "Well, everything was going just fine till a sweet vendor passed by and yelled PEANUTS!"
