Sadness... the Old and the New Me :(

"I am both happy and sad at the same time because you and I are re-uniting after all these years but I can't correlate the Old and the new You"....

Its quite sad innit?

Glad I found you; one day, I will tell you my story.

Bless.

Love Letters to Rosalinda: Snippets from a Life Story...

(With a sigh...)

I started this search ages hence; never forgetting the face but constantly erring on the side of the name, not the 'Rosa' but the 'Linda'- woefully misrepresented to all past associations who cared to help in the search as 'Mensah'. I drew blank.

Do you remember Tina Thompson? It is a contradiction- this story with its roots set in the past. In its future it now belongs to history for tomorrow and the yonder.

Rosa Linda- that face, the eyes and the very look in those eyes.... etched in my memories forever, never to be forgotten.

Don't lose sweat, an effort at recognition will be an exercise in futility- my change is drastic.

Bless You for yesterday and all....

snippets from a life story (facts and fiction)

As per the outpatient records kept at the health facility, she had her name listed as Fuleira Ousmanie; sophomore year student from a non-disclosed institution of higher learning, Islamic by virtue of religion. I, her companion of indeterminate religious affiliation, diamond stud in both ears with a look of confused worry all over my face; I was her immediate relation and next of kin. I countersigned against her name without perusing the document… reading the fine prints on the yellow sheet of paper was of flawed importance to me at that critical moment; I was Kofi Abotua, thrusting the pad before the nurse, and our interest, Fuleira's and mine, was in the liberating success of the procedure that was bound to ensure she got her life back on track so she could further her education and aspirations of a life to be lived in scholarly jurisprudence and journalistic ease. All she ever dreamed of apart from her undying love and affection for me was the legal and the pen working hand in hand to positively influence society. The post surgery preliminaries were done with; she was ready for ER. Little did I know what was to follow- I lost Fuleira as a prognosis to Alhaji Bhanda, the local neighbourhood oil tycoon.

@ Don, let me rebuff and debunk your assertion as to the pedigree of your literary exploits or proficiency.

Firstly, let me remind you that we are not living in the past.Gone were the days that some unknown riff-raff and rednecks will stand up and heap inconsequential 'praises' to the so called ''chew and pour'' verbosity that you recited back on the hill..Let me however, make it clear to you that, I saw it, heard you and deduced your diction knowing where you were coming from at that time.That's more than a decade ago..aight ? We are in a new decade.Oh ! And where is that league that you are championing? Are you glorifying yourself here or its a case of blowing your own trumpet ?..

Dude, I'd love to engage you in a one-on-one battle probably at the end of the year to see/hear for myself this fascinated new league you've outdoored..

In the case of the so called hyped 'Protorial', it was a ''Fat Finger Syndrome'' and if you know FSS then I don't need to dilly dally here.

Regarding the latter part of my bollicking to you, I think i hit the nail on the head.I know it will be hard to succumb to such a bashing but then again somebody got to hush you and if you think I'm a pain in your ass then you ain't seen nothing yet.I see you to be in a higgledy-piggledy.I know you are not a stoic so a rebut is welcome.

I think you are livid or perhaps boiling or indefensible about labelling you as an amateur and incompetent in areas/fields that you claim to be your specialisation.

And by the way, I didn't fluff. I passed my ESOL with flying colours. I don't know about you and I'm not interested to know.

I expect a potent rebuttal from you, but if it turn out to be another kindergarten humdrum I'll cut the bull from this whole brouhaha.

Jack, I dey the capital inside.Its boisterous, cacophonous and vivacious.What dey go on for there? the last time we crossed eyes was somewhere in Rugby, Warwickshire.You remember the beef burger we bought which you later remarked that you were 'slow eater' and so forth and so forth ? You digg ?

::@enninful,
i can't think you are yet ready for any verbal belligerence posturing, so like you rightly asserted you have a year within which time you can be considered as 'initiated'. it will amount to cruelty on my part if thingi is slated for now; you are blessed with all the time in the world so you can prim and proper yourself for whatever battle because unlike 'dis moi', you are the one who needs to prove yourself to earn kudos.

then again, you bear firm attestation to what you saw and heard about a decade ago but cor blimey!!!, vintage seems from this end of the world to be totally lost on you. do i have to explain that as well, that the older the wine.............? i think you know the rest, ha? :)

the chew and pour that stocks in trade with you, which in english is termed 'learning by rote' (guess you only knew it as chew and pour innit?) is more than exemplified in your post culminating in verbose personification. i mean come on man, in what out of context meaning is this cut and paste ''i see you to be in a higgledy-piggledy''? can we get a sentence structure right, for once?

atypical juvenescence bordering on mediocrity; and i'm being very charitable here as well to say the least- to say you didn't fluff your e.s.o.l, you didn't fluff?????? fluff? where in the world was 'flunk' in this context? another cut and paste?? boo hoo...... this is my point george, everybody passes in some dull flying mediocre colours all the time, how many of them excel enough to adorn the white flag? its as far away from your reach as was biblical moses to canaan, you simply do not belong in that league- a fact you have clearly and openly demonstrated to everybody reading this light banter between you and dis moi.

just like joshua clottey, you need a lot of sprucing up to fit into the welterweight division, clam shell defensiveness will not win you any fights especially with a whirlwind flurry fighter like pacman, lmao :).

chale, abi you know say i no dey mean any harm, i jus dey lov d fact sey one of my young' uns dey prove him mettle, nice one frm manchester. how b d weda? man dey miss abrokyire pass oooo, and i stl dey eat slow. dat tin neva change kwraaa so ibi say lately i dey chop more tuo zaafi sake of i jus fr trow dwn ma throat nd swallow. chale my jaws be the laziest jaws ever- even food sef wey man fr chew na wahala

can joshua defeat pacquaio and make me eat humble pie?

Don Chikara :a southpaw jack dempsey at welterweight, having annexed 7 world titles in as much weight divisions to make mayweather literally fleehis pants like there was no turning back... and now its joshua clottey in the trouble of his life.... can't wait to listen to peace fm on sunday morning. another legacy cemented by pacquaio:)

:joshua 'the heater' clottey aka 'the grandmaster', former ibf welterweight champion of the world faces the little 'pilipino' man with dynamite in both hands who currently reigns as the best p4p boxer.

floyd 'trash talking' mayweather failed to step up and square it in the ring with manny pacquaio after all his mouthing off, who was the next in line to fall victim, a pride of ghana?

i'm posting this with all the confidence buttressed by the attitude of a realist, that come sunday morning on peace f.m, ghanaians will be served an unwelcome delicacy of breakfast for news when adwoa yeboah adjei and her co-anchor decide to do a literal translation on the outcome of events as transpired in the wee hours of the morning.

my fascination here is with the flow of the local language and the dexterity and mastery with which it is delivered in a no-holes-barred tell it in your ears attitude.

that said, is joshua clottey ready for this gargantuan challenge that a feisty frisky manny pacquaio presents by eclipsing this prospect from boxing's limelight to become 'the man'?

faced with the creme de la creme of world greats in the welterweight division, the hitherto unknown little pilipino man has decimated and forced into retirement the likes of oscar 'the golden boy' de la hoya who barely survived 8rds, ricky 'the hitman' hatton who personally gave me the fright of my entire life as an aficionado and partaker of the sport- damn!! i thought manny had committed sanctioned murder in-front of the whole world that night as his southpaw sledge hammer fist landed squarely on hattons' jaw flattening 'the brawler from manchester' who had to be frantically revived from his comatose by ringside paramedics.

then came miguel 'angel' cotto who had won what most boxing spectators thought was a controversial decision against joshua clottey, to which i personally believe the incumbent deserved the glory because i didn't see the latter displaying enough of a winning attitude coupled with work rate and ring generalship, then again joshua tasted the canvas in the second round which for me clinched the deal for cotto.

in the encounter that ensued between cotto and pacquaio, the latter man's combination of hand speed, power and ring generalship coupled with a steel chin served as his most prized arsenals once again as he relentlessly wrestled his 7th world title in classic pounding fashion. miguel 'angel' cotto's face was a river of flowing blood by the time the referee decided enough damage had been inflicted for the fight to be stopped.

emmanuel dapidran pacquaio a.k.a 'the mexicutioner' a.k.a 'the pacman'; that diminutive filipino pugilist whose exploits in the ring has created an aura of invincibility about him and made him stand out the tallest amongst the elite welterweights does not look anywhere near ready to lay down a single title for grabs. he intends keeping all seven for as long as his pinoy pride will last, and is hell bent on leaving a legacy in boxing and for posterity to judge him as one of the greatest ever.

not by any stretch of my wildest imagination do i see myself hearing the voice of legendary ring announcer michael buffer proclaiming this to the world, that...... from the capital city of ghana, a-c-c-r-a, the neeeeeew...........

in the mean time........ lets get ready to r--u--m--b--l--e.......!!!!!!!

sokoi sokoi paastor- this is not a diss

Don Chikara :okay, is it the whole of religion that smacks of UNADULTERATED BULLSHIT or certain religious inclinations? when was the last time i heard of a muslim sheik, OR 'kweku bonsam' having carnal knowledge of his own daughter and trying to blame it on a poor paltry paid 'watchman'? So Then, When Was The Last A So Called Man Of God Put His Dick Into His Own Daughter's Hole? Answer- YESTERDAY. Correct For 10 Points.

@ Don, there are very few Christians in the system even though a lot ppl claim they are. Christianity has allowed the western powers who brought it here to pollute us with a lot of crap. See the kinda movies being acted in Gh, can you do that in a muslim country??

@ Don, the main aim of DEMOCRACY is a world without religion. it leaves gabs for sin. it is satanic. No wonder most of the muslims in islamic countries don't practice it, even if they do, they don't use it as the paramount rule because the Quoran is what they resort to first. No wonder the islamic nations are progressing.

@ Don: Its all boils down on the calling.Are you blaming the so called pray for me 'Man of God' or you are blaming society for the influx of ''churches'' in our dispensation ?
Was the Pastor starved of sex or his beautifully ''cow bell / latogen'' daughter was so risque that he couldn't controlled his hormones and that he had to drag his gargantuan big willy and do the unthinkable ?
Who do you blame ?
Matthew 7:15-20 summarises it all.'' By their fruits you will recognise them ?

Kwaku Osei (this is from a friend as well) The fact that muslim girls/makaranta kids cum kweku bonsam daughters would not come out of the closet and speak volumes of the ordeal that they go through from their fathers and leaders does not mean it is not happening in their world. If you live your life in fear it takes more than courage to come out. In both world of muslim sheik and kweku bonsam fear is the rule of law. Their holes get fucked too and by their fathers big dick. True or Yes - Both!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don: Your moderation is abysmal to say the least.Let's use one simple common language for the benefit of easy sussing.I don't want to brand you as a gaffe prone protorial but I'm inclined to do so cos this smacks of lack of incompentence and amateurish from your side.
Too many neophytes and myriads of proselytism here.

::@enninful,
you do not belong anywhere in my league, take note of that as a first pointer.

facebook is a social networking site, with no hard and fast rules as to which language of expression one chooses to make themselves heard. tagalog is just as welcome as your native fante, twi, ga, ayigbe or hausa- second pointer.

before you even harbour the remotest inclination of getting into a war of words with 'dis moi', in all honestly i think that, as a matter of fact, you need to re-visit your english teacher for further tutorials for the next ten years of your life. (how boring a life of such drudgery will be considering the amount of work and time needed to hone you in on the language, i do not envy you for a split second :). consider taking lessons in e.s.l.

hmmm, protorial????? which lexicon houses its meaning? is it your very own? because i never heard this from adam.

okay, wait a minute- proctorial,....yeah right! look it up.

how will you explain this grammatical abrasion in your post to a crass ineducable makola woman,......
(''this smacks of lack of incompentence and amateurish from your side'').

so neophytes and proselytism in one breath; within that context, does it look to you like someone's agenda here is to promote the latter? i do not think so.

a walking malaprop. is that how you want posterity to remember your claim to fame?

mr. bammer, did you set out to lay (a) claim to bragging rights on this site?

let the people proficient in their native lingo exercise their right to express themselves in that.

who's your daddy? ask george enninful about my literary exploits.

is it cold in manchester, matey? :)
