Blogger is f*cking up, undressing in a strange place,an old interesting article and guess who?

Blogger has f*cked me up big time!They have a new version of blogger out which works with your gmail account.So what I did is that I moved me account to the new Beta version.The next day when I try to log in it tells me to log in to the new blogger using my gmail address, I do so and the damn thing tells me to log in using the old blogger.I do that and guess what?I’m told me blog has been moved to the new BETA blogger.So there I am, chasing my tail!I e-mailed blogger and got one of those automated replies, guess their frigging engineers are still working on it!Thing is that I really can’t hound blogger that much because the damn service is free, it’s like talking smack about someone’s cooking when you go visiting!You are at their mercy and they can throw you out of their house anytime.Damn these free services, too tempting to resist even if they are imperfect!

I know Shiro tagged me to share my secrets but that isn’t going to happen today.It’s been a minute since I blogged here and sharing my secrets here is like undressing in a strangers house.You don’t know if there’s a hole in the wall where someone can see you.Let me get used to this and I’ll share!

An Black American friend sent me this article (dated 1997) about how Kenyan kids are losing their traditional ties.It really upset her because slavery did erase most of her traditional culture as her people were forced to conform while we on the other hand have a culture but are in a rush to discard it.I told her not to be worried because not all Kenya’s people live in the urban areas, those who live out of Nairobi are usually more in touch with their culture and at least speak their language as do many in Nairobi.I also find it interesting the cultural resurgence that was happening in Kenya as I left ie Luo night, Luhyia night, Coast night etc. I also do think that many Kenyans as they grow older do decide to find out more about their cultures and get rooted, but I am still open to correction.

What was ironic in that article is that dude who is the focus of the article was a classmate before he left to join the international school in the article.To be honese he was an insufferable punk!So much so that when a horse fell on him and broke his leg in high school, his whole class burst into laughter when they were told!I do remember there was this chic he got with once who went around telling people that he kisses like a fish.By the way does his father’s name ring a bell?Yes that is the same Ngugi who was being sued by Esther Passaris for child support!I wonder if he was carrying around with her at the time of this articles publication?Yes I had to go there!

For some strange reason wordpress truncated my original post, so it isnt as good as before.This is a my time to test my regular readers on blogger, do you know who I really am?Till you figure it out I will hide in the shadows!
