I am sure everybody knows the story of 1985 in Charlotte and how my driver, Darrell Waltrip, tracked down Harry Gant and passed him to win the very first Winston All-Star Race which is known today as the Sprint All-Star Race. Now back then, they ran the first Winston All-Star Race, believe it or not, on Saturday late afternoon after the Busch Series race (now obviously known as the Nationwide Series race). Yet even after a Busch Series race and most of the All-Star Race, we still had not yet hit the big news -- and the controversy. That came after Darrell's engine blew up as he crossed the start/finish line to win the race. Looking back, I really think all that controversy has overshadowed what happened the next day for the running of the Coca-Cola 600. You see, Darrell Waltrip won that race to complete the sweep, but the story behind the story is Darrell almost didn't even run the race because our team owner Junior Johnson was mad at NASCAR. It all started during postrace inspec...

I am starting to ground drive my horse Breeze. I have only done it once so far (not actually ground driving though)
I have tried getting her to walk on with me behind her, and turn. I have also tried getting her to back up, and stop.
The problem with this is, she doesn't want to go, or turn! She will stop and back up perfectly put will not go forword. Once I get her moving, she will take a few steps, I will get her to turn, but she will shake her head and stop. I will back her up, and try to get her to go again, but she will just stand their.
My question is, any advice to train a horse to ground drive?
Breeze is 2 years old.


text: Mobile Samsung accused of patent infringement yet again — this time over eye-tracking tech March 19, 2013 7:16 AM Ricardo Bilton 0 If you're not reaching, engaging, and monetizing customers on mobile, you're likely losing them to someone else. Register now for the 8th annual MobileBeat, July 13-14, where the best and brightest will be exploring the latest strategies and tactics in the mobile space. LG can't beat Samsung in smartphones, so it's turning to something else: patents. Above: The new Samsung Optimus G Pro. The Korean electronics maker is going after Samsung over the eye-tracking technology found in their phones, according to Yonyap News. Samsung's Galaxy S IV offers a feature called Smart Pause, which allows users to pause videos simply by looking away from the screen. That looks conspicuously like the Optimus G Pro's Smart Video, LG says, which does just about the same thing. Samsung has denied LG's claims, arguing that its eye-tracking tech works differently from LG's own. So no infringement done. It's a funny situation for both parties because, while LG says it has the patent to the technology, it's Samsung that's made the biggest effort to tell the world about it. (The move is also funny considering the overwhelming similarities between the Galaxy S III and Optimus G Pro, which could easily be confused as something Samsung itself created.) Samsung, of course, is no stranger to being accused to coping its competitors — and neither is LG. The companies' are just coming off an extended patent spat over the technologies in their displays. That feud ended relatively peacefully, but it's clear that neither party has much interest in making a permanent truce. Photo: Devindra Hardawar/VentureBeat VB's research team is studying mobile user acquisition... Chime in here, and we'll share the results.

My family of five stayed in a cabin while skiing over Christmas. It was great! The cabin was warm and comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with all the equipment we needed to cook and relax after a long day of skiing and exploring the area. The cabin was also pet friendly (loved having our dog with us) but incredibly clean. No dog hair or dog smell. The staff checked in on us twice, but did not intrude on our family time. The perfect balance. The only downside was the close proximity between cabins. The cabin was not secluded, but the area was still quiet. I highly recommend staying at Misty Mountain Ranch and vacationing in Maggie Valley, NC. We were able to ski, hike, see waterfalls, feed ducks, watch elk roam in our "back yard", and explore Native American culture in Cherokee.

Our guests (Tom Wheatley, the regional organizer for the Marine Fish Conservation Network and Martha Collins from the National Environmental Trust) say that Congress might actually vote in the next couple of weeks on a bill that is of critical importance to a $48 billion dollar fishing industry and our nationââ¬â¢s largest public resource. This may be the most important conservation vote of the year. What Member of Congress wants to explain to constituents why he or she voted to help empty the oceans of fish, hurt commercial and recreational fishing traditions, eliminate Americanââ¬â¢s favorite seafood choices, and devastate coastal communities?
Ten years since its last renewal, U.S. Representatives Richard Pombo (R-CA), Barney Frank (D-MA), and a handful of other Members of Congress are trying to roll back conservation measures in the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, our primary ocean fisheries law.comments powered by Disqus

Country contradiction, looking for a fun-loving man...
I'm very personable, giving, loving, thoughtful, and loyal. I love animals and the outdoors. I was born and raised in So. California, but I'm really a country girl. I like things simple, honest, and true. I like to keep things real. Life is to short for BS. Although I'm country, I love to get out and dance. I love to dress up, yeah a little sexy, and go out and have fun. I do try to stay out of mischief. ;0) But I'm a bit of a contradiction. I'm country, and yet I listen to mostly Hip Hop/RB and classical music. Go figure. I have lived in a few different states and have traveled throughout the US a bit, although mostly when I was young. Some day I really want to go to Europe. Maybe when I finish my B.S. I'll take that trip. I'm not ordering food, so to put my 'Ideal Man' in a nutshell is ridiculous. I need someone that I can mesh well with and we have chemistry together. It's that simple and yet that exceedingly complex. All to often I find one without the other or it's one sided. A few things about meshing well… Loving kids and animals is a necessity, seeing as I have a daughter and pets that are family. I'm very intellectual and love a great conversation. And although I have a tendency to be serious all to often, I love to have fun. I'm strong and very independent, but also quite feminine. I need someone that can be considerate of others, thoughtful, respectful, and know how to treat a woman in an old fashioned way…along with a little romance. Well, so much for not putting in my order. As you can see, there are many facets to me. I'm hoping to find someone that can accept and embrace my diversity and doesn't mind getting his hands dirty. ;)
Coffee and conversation , Cooking , Dining out , Fishing/Hunting , Gardening/Landscaping , Hobbies and crafts , Movies/Videos , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Nightclubs/Dancing , Travel/Sightseeing
I have Cats, Dogs, Fish, Horses, Other
I like Birds
Some other viewpoint
I enjoy everything from quiet tea houses to boistrous clubs. I like eating at good seafood, italian, chinese and mexican food restaurants. But I also really like the peace of the country and the outdoors.
I would have to say that my favorite thing is the sound of my daughters laughter. Next would be rain. If it's warm, I'm out in it. If it's cold, I'm cuddled inside listening to it. It soothes the soul.
I enjoy movies, dancing, reading, gardening, horseback riding, fishing and dining out. I can go out and see a movie or just stay at home. There's a lot of things I enjoy doing, but just haven't done lately.
Hmm. I believe it was my Biology book.

Jackets lose Horton for Tuesday's big tilt vs. Avs, 'and possibly beyond'
Mar 31, 2014, 12:22 PM EDT
Fighting for their playoff lives, the Columbus Blue Jackets were dealt a big blow today as Nathan Horton was ruled out of Tuesday's game against Colorado — with no guarantee he'd be back for Thursday's tilt in Philly:
Nathan Horton (lower body) will not play tomorrow "and possibly beyond," per #CBJ coach Todd Richards. pic.twitter.com/f9zv1Wlfk3
— NHL Blue Jackets (@BlueJacketsNHL) March 31, 2014
Richards said Nathan Horton's lower body issue is something he'd been playing through, but came to the forefront more recently. #CBJ
— Rob Mixer (@RobMixer) March 31, 2014
Horton has four goals and 17 points in 34 games for Columbus this season, often playing on the top line with Ryan Johansen and Boone Jenner. The former Bruin and Panther started brightly in Columbus, scoring 12 points in his first 20 games, but has slowed down lately and is goalless in 24 straight (with just one point in his last six games.)
Desperate to get back into the postseason for the first time since 2009, the Jackets aren't messing around when it comes to icing the best team available. In addition to parking Horton during an especially crucial time, the club has also made struggling veteran forward R.J. Umberger a healthy scratch on a few occasions.
Columbus heads into Monday's action holding the final wild card spot in the Eastern Conference, but just one point up on Washington and two on Toronto.
- slaugin - Mar 31, 2014 at 12:31 PM
Horton the Magician, pulling his signature disappearing act only to reappear in the playoffs (assuming Blue Jackets can hold on to that spot)
- bruinsfan55 - Mar 31, 2014 at 12:56 PM
Ah yes, Nathan Horton. Haha I love the guy still but he again like always disappeared in the season and will maybe re-appear if the Jackets make the playoffs.
- skeeterbarnes - Mar 31, 2014 at 1:33 PM
Surprise surprise–Horton is injured. Wake me for a real news story.
- rushledger - Mar 31, 2014 at 1:57 PM
That's why I feel the bruins upgraded his spot by getting Iginla, scores plenty without the laundry list of major injuries, shoulder surgery, multiple concussions etc.
- terrier92 - Mar 31, 2014 at 3:47 PM
He won a Game 7 ot game against Habs. Guy will always have a special place in hearts of Bruins fans. Hope he gets well.

something the little Fillipino wouldn't even dream of having the courage to do IMO.
Who gives a **** where Duran started and where he ended.
The bottom line is that Duran was an elite fighter from 135 to 147 lbs.
Count them, a ****ing 12 lbs.
Past Welterweight, Duran could still compete, but he was no longer elite and so far from a p4p fighter.
Fighting as a middleweight on up Duran looked bloated and fat.
A ****ing fatso is what Duran was at those weights.
Pacquiao has been a world Champion elite type fighter from 112 all the way to 147 lbs, spanning 35 lbs.
Who gives a **** what these fighters weighed as under developed teenagers.
Duran at 21 years old was a lightweight.
Pacquiao at 21 years old was a ****ing flyweight and still fighting at an extreme high level 35 lbs heavier.
What ex flyweight champion fought better than ever at 147 lbs????
Exactly, there has'nt been any in history except Manny Pacroid!

The Bio-degradable tent pegs from Mountain Essentials are the festival 'must have' of the season. Made from 30% potato starch and 70% polypropylene, the biodegradable tent pegs will break down over time if left in soil. The tent pegs have the strength and durability of a regular plastic tent peg without causing damage to the environment if lost or left behind. Many festivals and camping grounds are imposing regulations against metal pegs and potato starch pegs are the way to go.
January 13, 2014
I but it for next trips :)
July 19, 2013
These are great pegs
April 05, 2013
Workd well; strong

FAA to approve resumption of Boeing 787 flights
UBS analyst David Strauss estimated last month that the 787 will cost Boeing $6 billion this year. Besides the battery problems, the plane already costs more to build than it brings in from customers.
United has six Dreamliners, plus another 44 on order. American and Delta have also ordered 787s. Boeing has orders for more than 800 of the planes from airlines around the globe.
The 787 has two identical lithium-ion batteries, one of which is located toward the front of the plane and powers cockpit electrical systems, the other toward the rear and used to start an auxiliary power unit while the plane is on the ground, among other functions. It was the battery toward the rear that caught fire and gushed smoke on the plane in Boston, which had recently landed after an overseas flight. It was the other battery toward the front that failed on the plane in Japan.
Every item that is part of an airplane, down to its nuts and bolts, must be certified as safe before FAA approves that type of plane as safe for flight. The two events have raised questions about why the FAA and Boeing didn't uncover problems with the batteries before the FAA certified the plane as safe for flight in 2011. In recent years, the FAA has relied to a greater extent on designated employees of aircraft makers to conduct the safety testing necessary of certification. Some aviation safety experts have questioned whether FAA has the in-house expertise to oversee the safety of cutting-edge technologies that haven't been in planes before.
Lithium batteries are much more likely to experience uncontrolled high temperatures that can lead to fires if they are damaged, exposed to excessive heat, overcharged or have manufacturing flaws. Despite their safety risks, they are increasingly attractive to aircraft makers as a way to cut weight and thus improve fuel efficiency.
The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the Boston battery fire and the process by which the FAA certified the 787's batteries were certified as safe. The board has scheduled a two-day hearing beginning Tuesday at which FAA and Boeing officials are slated to testify.
NTSB officials have said the Boston battery fire began with a short circuit in one of the battery's eight cells, leading to uncontrolled temperatures and short-circuits in the rest of the battery's cells. Firefighters who responded to the incident reported dense clouds of white smoke and two small flames on the outside of the box that contained the battery cells.

Great for the money!
By dwpalaska
from Juneau AK
Best bang for the buck! I finally have an electric cook top that allows me the control I need to go from a boil to a simmer in a calculated amount of time. Each burner reacts a little different the then the other, but you will be familiar with it in no time. Cook top is very easy to clean and the invisible coils put on a nice show when you increase the heat. There is a convenient lit indicator reminding you that the cook top is still hot. If I had anything negative to say about this item, it would be that it will scratch easily and you must take care in sliding your pans across the top. Also, anticipate having too alter your counter top opening to accomodate the cooktop, it seems to be just a little longer and wider than the one your replacing. I would buy this again!
happy buyer

We bought this unit just under a month ago. It was easy to install and works and looks great. It is a replacement for an older whirlpool model. No complaints at all.
Works great

Works well and looks great. No complaints.
Love is having a new cooktop!
By junebaby
from Redington Shores, FL
Had this installed in my new kitchen recently and had no idea how much I would like it. So easy to clean and looks great in my black granite countertop. Old-fashioned burners be gone!

This cooktop was part of our kitchen remodel, and we couldn't have made a better choice! Fits our needs perfectly!
Flat top
By Leo
from Longview, TX
Easily fit, installed in under 5 minutes.
Nice looking for the cost but not very functional.
By Alison29
from Oakland, MI, United States
This cooktop has only one large burner (front right). The remaining three burners are rarely used, as they too small for most pots/pans. It is limiting when preparing several items. Also, the shiny black finish reflects every imperfection and requires constant attention to maintain the sleek look. I use it far less than my previous cooktop because it is not what I expected. I should have done my homework a little better.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Awesome Built-In Flat Range!
By jd6cancerfree
from Fayetteville, GA, United States
This was custom built into our granite counter tops & whirlpool spared no expense on making a wonderful range! It heats up so quick & is simply the best range we could have purchased. You will not be disappointed with this model & brand. Hands down the best range out there. Cleans so easy!
Nice cooktop
By Russ9
from Toledo, ohio
I bought this to replace an outdated electric cooktop with the electric coils. This unit looks much better and performs flawlessly. Installation was a breeze and even has a "whip" pre installed to make wiring easy.

THOSE who hoped the study would go away will be disappointed. Claims that eating genetically modified maize gives rats tumours have provoked a storm in Europe.
The French government says it will suspend imports of the maize if its National Health and Safety Agency finds the results valid. The maize, made by Monsanto and modified to resist the herbicide Round-Up, is imported as animal feed to Europe but cannot be grown there due to continuing hostility to GM crops.
Meanwhile, the European Food Safety Authority is asking Gilles-Eric Séralini and colleagues at the University of Caen, who did the research, for detailed data not presented in the publication so it can evaluate the finding.
Whether the request is met remains to be seen, as Séralini has said the EFSA cannot evaluate the study due to a conflict of interest, having declared the maize safe.

Jimmy Lewis is teaching again!!
They're baaaack! Just got an email from Heather Lewis that the Jimmy Lewis Off road School is back up and they are teaching locally. There is a two-day off road class scheduled for the weekend of May 15-16 right near Lake Isabella, east of Bakersfield. Cost is $600, but everyone says it's the best farkle you can ever get for your bike.
I imagine the class would fill up soon, so hopefully there's still room left-. If there is, I'm definitely going. Who's with me?!
One of the greatest teachers ever for off-road technique. Awesome event!
i sent mine yesterday.
there are possibly at least 2 more inmates going.
I must be old... it was 6 years ago that I took a JL class.
Yamaha TW200 (plates)
Honda TL250 ? (green sitckered)
xr400 and 640E, but i was told by another inmate to bring the tw200....:huh
The smaller the bike the more you will be able to push it when doing the drills. The easier it will be when you push too far. And the more you will get out of the class.
Take the bike you would for adventure riding most of the time or that you want to become more skilled with. Unless you've never ridden that particular motorcycle before, JL kind of tailors his teaching, tips and drills to the bike your on anyway. And don't worry about electric start or not. If you get tired of kicking your crank bike, Heather will come over and get it started for you!! F#*kers, don't ask me how I know!!:shog:poser
You guys are going to have fun, though:rilla
I don't know if I want to pay $600 to ride my TW200 up and down hills, and I sure as shit DON'T WANT TO RIDE my R1150GS up and down hills.
That's just me, I'm kinda $ edgy right now and turning 60 next week and it's freakin' me out.
Spend hundreds of dollars on the class, gas, food and lodging (all this could add up to $ 900.00 easy)...
Deal with 'performance riding' and trying to learn something...and then deal with kick starting your bike about twenty times :loco . Boy, does THAT sound like a GREAT idea :dunno .
Jamjet did give some good advise, 'Take the bike you would for adventure riding most of the time or that you want to become more skilled with.':bow
Almost all the ADV bike that I know are electric start... FYI I rode my BMW HP 2 for the class and it was a GREAT learning experience. I would have NEVER have taken my Honda XR 650 R. Maybe,... I'm to smart for my own good. :patch
It may sound like good advice... but JL recommends a smaller bike if you have one.

I really don't want to write this review because Geco is one of the best kept secrets in the shooting business, and I want to keep it that way. This is without question the best FMJ ammo I have ever used, not one "bump" in 100 rounds. Its' accuracy is better than my own. I'm going to keep right on buying. It is half the price of a like quantity of "known" HP,s!Date published: 2015-02-20Rated 5 out of 5 by pcountryma1 from Great for target practice This product is the quality and price that I expect from S.G.

 I have read in some industry that this ammo has a hidden secret. Is it true that under a thin FMJ, there lies a HP?

Asked by: Alec

 We have not heard anything about these being different from the FMJ as advertised.

My forthcoming book, now with an updated title of A Very Dangerous Woman, is to be published in the UK in May 2015 and in June in the USA by Oneworld Publications.
It documents the life of Moura Budberg, an intriguing adventuress, alluring seductress and mistress of two of the century's greatest writers, H G Wells, and Maxim Gorky. However the true love of her life was the British Agent in Russia during the Revolution – Sir Robert Bruce Lockhart. The latter was involved in a plot to assassinate Lenin and overthrow the Bolshevik government.
She was under surveillance by MI5 for thirty years as a suspected Russian spy. Guy Burgess came to her parties. She was Nick Clegg's great-

An impressive work of research into the lives of three men, rightly or wrongly, connected with the Whitechapel murders.
Wolf Vanderlinden,
What has been needed for quite some time is a book that dispassionately looked at the evidence that has formed the basis of the cases against [J.K. Stephen and Prince Eddy]. And that is exactly what Deborah McDonald has done -

Casa on a rolling steel stand
I still plan on a large oven in my backyard, say a 42 Pompeii or similar sized Casa, yet I'm lured by the thought of a second, smaller one (Casa 80 or 90) near the house. This one would be on the porch off the kitchen and used for one or two pies for the family, not entertaining.
To save space I'm interested in the smallest footprint possible, as little mass as possible and the ability to roll it out of the way when not in use. The final consideration is that I have the ability to do as much of it myself, i.e. not a prebuilt unit.
I assume I'd need an insulating floor built into the stand and of course insulation and stucco type material for the dome? Suggestions?
We had a customer in Stockton put an oven on a metal frame with caster. He had metalworking experience and wanted to move the oven around a little. Still, they are pretty heavy, so I'm not sure how often he has actually moved it.
To keep the oven light, you could construct a rigid metal tray (4") and fill it with insulating concrete. That would be structurally sound and lighter.

KISS Finally Has The Cover Of Rolling Stone! Plus, More Drama Concerning Their RRHOF Induction
It's been 40 years since KISS released their debut album and they are just now getting the cover of Rolling Stone.
The cover is an image of the band's 1975 photo with the original lineup: Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons, plus Ace Frehley and Peter Criss, who were both gone from the band by the early Eighties.
The cover story tells the story of the band and looks at the founding members' lives and careers.
The story revealed that even Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons have had their differences. Stanley said: "We've always seen each other as brothers. What we seem to be at odds at is how you treat your brother. Gene's priority, by far, has always been himself. And he's not one to let anyone else's feelings or contributions get in the way."
They also explained exactly why they won't be reuniting for a performance at the Hall of Fame induction ceremony. Stanley and Simmons offered to allow the former members to jam with the current lineup of guitarist Tommy Thayer and drummer Eric Singer, but Ace and Peter found that insulting.
Peter Criss said: "I won't be disrespected. How can you put me in the Hall of Fame and then tell me to go sit over there in the corner while another guy puts on my makeup and plays? That's an injustice. To the fans, too."
Simmons explained that Frehley and Criss "no longer deserve to wear the paint."
He said: "The makeup is earned. Just being there at the beginning is not enough. And if you blow it for yourself, it's your fault. You can't blame your band members. 'Oh, look what happened to me. Oh, poor me.' Look at my little violin. I have no sympathy."
Frehley said: "The reason they don't want to perform with me and Peter is because the last time they did, they had to do a reunion tour. We play three songs, the fans go crazy. They don't want to open up a can of worms."
The story also includes Gene Simmons saying his touring days are almost be done.
He said: "I'm 64 now. Three more tours. Two, if I have a life change of some kind."
The magazine goes on sale Friday but you can check out the story online right now.

Zakk Wylde's Guitar Stolen From Tour Bus
Zakk Wylde's guitar has been stolen– it's the distinctive black-and-white bull's eye guitar that's his signature instrument.
Wylde played a set as part of the Experience Hendrix tour in Chicago Friday and put the guitar on his bus, then went back inside to watch the rest of the show. His leather vest and his guitar were gone when he got back.
Surveillance footage shows three men entering the bus after Wylde's tour manager forgot to lock the door.
Wylde says his tour manager feels "beyond horrendous beyond embarrassed."
The guitar is one of two with the bull's eye paint job and Wylde estimates it's worth $10,000.
Message me if you are in Chicago and know the whereabouts of this guitar: pic.twitter.com/fPeK3U4Eps

Between a sovereign national conference and a referendum …
SOMETIMES, a conference is required to solve problems. I have used it often myself. Whenever I have noticed that a particular food fails to disappear as fast as others, I have called the tribe to a roundtable conference with a one-item agenda. Is there any chance that this food X is not the exact favourite of anyone living within the sheltering precincts of these walls? Then I count hands, and then I weigh them. If the majority of hands raised up do not weigh anything up to the minority of hands not raised up, then we the conferees come to a unanimous decision to ignore the raised hands, particularly if they are puny. Trouble comes however when two giant hands are in opposition but, even then, we soon come to a compromise: where the kitchen is concerned, only one hand matters. End of conference. I believe Nigeria and the international halls of justice can learn one or two things from the way we do things in my kitchen.
The Nigeria we know today is only a contraption put together by an indifferent Britain intent on solving her own administrative problems. She wanted to use only one file from coast to hinterland. So, she saw nothing wrong in lumping together all the groups she had identified on the coasts and in the hinterland into one entity, never mind that those ones had never seen each other before, did not understand each other, and had nothing in common with them. Now, that's what I call power. It reminds me very much of the kind exercised by the so-called 'conductors' of commercial buses in Lagos who just lump people together, irrespective of their origins and destinations, to go and break a certain amount of money to be able to individually retrieve their change. Power corrupts indeed.
Like a bird on a wire, managing the contraption has expectedly been full of headaches and toothaches and every other ache for both rulers and the ruled, because, neither bird nor wire has peace. As I have written here before, two unkindnesses were visited on the young nation by Britain. First, the nation was new to self-governance. Two, each previously self-determining part of the new nation had no idea what to do with its new brothers, sisters and neighbours: love them, hate them, love them, hate them, then HATE THEM, HATE THEM, HATE THEM! Indeed, every attempt to enforce love seems to have failed, and everyone is wondering why. Then, someone came up with a suggestion: why don't we talk and air our grievances?
There would indeed have been nothing wrong with a good talk except a few things. One, a decent conversation is hard to come by. I have since discovered that people come into talks with their entire baggage: bad breath, loud mouth, mouth wash (or lack of it), impatience, intolerance, bad ideologies, unemployment anger, failed marriage guilt, and so on. Then, all kinds of exercises go on there too. If people are not jumping the gun, they are jumping to conclusions, running off with the bad end of the stick, running off with the conversation, getting started on side talks, hitting the nail on the head, pounding the point, knocking down other people's arguments, tearing at characters, and generally emphasizing their point by spitting it out with much passion! Please!
Anyway, that's why good conversationists find me boring – I generally prefer to demure to the last speaker: I detest people spitting into my face. But I suspect the sovereign national conference will not attract demurists; it'll likely attract pounders and knockers and tearers, people who'll give pound for pound, flesh for flesh and blood for blood. I believe I am seeing them already. Just recently, I read an article on the internet by someone from the north daring the country to split up and see if the north will not survive better than others, and with panache too. Then I read from someone in the south east doing the same thing and I thought 'ugh, ugh, isn't this, like, sort of, you know, as in reaching the conclusion before the argument has even started?' If this is the kind of conference we are going to have, I hope someone will do me a great favour. I hope some kind fellow will just help my feeble ol' bones to a seat on the sidelines where I can watch and hear the combatants really going at it like gladiators and tearing pieces of flesh off each other's points to make sure they get the last words in. I hope also I will be able to get a word in edgeways, like say, 'Could you people turn down the volume of your spit a little? I'm getting quite wet here, thank you.'
Really, people, the issues, as I see them through my myopic eyes (that's right; that is why I wear glasses), are quite simple. The peoples who make up the present Nigerian state never agreed to come together but they were too young and polite to complain back then. They would not even know how anyway seeing they did not speak the same language before English came along, like the proverbial spider. It's a little like an adult holding a child in foster care. There is a stipulated age in which the child is mandatorily given his adulthood, ready or not. I think Nigeria is old enough to decide for herself whether she wants to continue in foster care or not and whether as an entity, 'undulating along in agony' as a poet so poetically put it. The problem then is how to take that decision: in peace and quiet or in wrath and belligerence?
I'll take peace any day, for wrath and belligerence never solved a thing. If you don't believe me, ask Hitler. I have heard people say that the conference is not expected to lead to a break-up and I have asked, then why do we need a conference? If you will not have a break-up, then you will have a break-in. Anyway, I rather think that what we need is not really a sovereign national conference where people will just come to talk, talk, talk, go home and continue bellyaching. No, what we need is an honest, sincere commitment to the Nigerian project if it must continue. It's called P-A-T-R-I-O-T-I-S-M. Short of that, then let everyone prepare his tent because no conference can guarantee it.
Listen, no cake ever stood where people behaved like mice, biting off chunks from it for the sheer pleasure biting gives. There is no reason on earth why government officials should live above the people, why traditional rulers should live in unbelievable opulence, parading their harems like trophies of war, where the central government is so strong it controls everything the people do, and when it can't, there is trouble, etc. Look, we the people want very little.
The people want an effective social service system. I would not go so far as to call for a cost-free housing, electricity, education, health care, water system, etc., or anything like. That would not be realistic. Instead, let there be a system where these things are provided at reasonable costs so that the least of the least, including the unemployed, can have a fairly comfortable ride through life without dreaming of stealing, killing or calling for a sovereign national conference. That is a bad sign indeed.
This present contraption is obviously too big to manage. Things are tight now, so it is better to let the steam out a little or the whole thing might burst. So, let's have a republic that is truly federal with each region providing a more effective social service system and keeping an eye on things locally where the tall eye of the central government cannot reach. Let's have a referendum now to decide whether we want regional governance or not.
