GUN VIOLENCE IN AMERICA: FOR WHO THE BELL TOLLS NEXT.

Just five people shy of Sandy Hook elementary school mass shooting incident that claimed 26 lives, the Uvalde Texas Robb elementary school mass shooting at 21 victims, now ranks among the highest grossing gun carnage in America. It is sad that such frequent blood spilling has tragically become part of our culture as a society. May the souls of the killed now rest.

25th AMENDMENT: ITS NOW ALL CRICKET.

Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi once questioned former President Donald John Trump's fitness to remain in office due to what she claimed was his declining mental capacity. Does anyone know what Madam Speaker presently thinks about the incontrovertible case which America is now saddled with? Just curious!

WHO WILL REBUILD UKRAINE?

The West should convert frozen Russian assets, both state's and oligarchs' owned, into a full seizure and set them aside for the future rebuilding of Ukraine. Like the Marshal Plan, call it the Putin Plan.

A HERO IS BORN.

I am staying put. I will not run away and abandon my people. The fight is here in Ukraine. What I need are weapons and ammunitions, not a ride out of town like former Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani - President Volodymyr Zelensky.

WORD!

A life without challenges is not a life lived at all. A life lived is a life that has problems, confronts problems, solves problems and then learns from problems. - Tunde Fashola.

NOW, YOU KNOW.

When fishing for love, bait with your heart and not your brain, because you cannot rationalize love. - Mark Twain.

JUST THE FACT.

In our country, you can shoot and kill a nigger, but you better not hurt a gay person’s feelings - Dave Chappelle

WORD.

"If you cannot speak the truth when it matters, then nothing else you says matters.” - Tucker Carlson.

#MeToo MOVEMENT: A BAD NEWS GONE CRAZY.

"To all the women who testified, we may have different truth, but I have a great remorse for all of you. I have great remorse for all of the men and women going through this crisis right now in our country. You know, the movement started basically with me, and I think what happened, you know, I was the first example, and now there are thousands of men who are being accused and a regeneration of things that I think none of us understood. I’m not going to say these aren’t great people. I had wonderful times with these people. I’m just genuinely confused. Men are confused about this issue. We are going through this #MeToo movement crisis right now in this country." - Harvey Weinstein.


RON DELLUMS: UNAPOLOGETICALLY RADICAL.

"If it’s radical to oppose the insanity and cruelty of the Vietnam War, if it’s radical to oppose racism and sexism and all other forms of oppression, if it’s radical to want to alleviate poverty, hunger, disease, homelessness, and other forms of human misery, then I’m proud to be called a radical.” - Ron Vernie Dellums.


WHAT REALLY MATTERS IN LIFE - STEVE JOBS

“I reached the pinnacle of success in the business world. In others’ eyes, my life is an epitome of success. However, aside from work, I have little joy. Non-stop pursuing of wealth will only turn a person into a twisted being, just like me. God gave us the senses to let us feel the love in everyone’s heart, not the illusions brought about by wealth. Memories precipitated by love is the only true riches which will follow you, accompany you, giving you strength and light to go on. The most expensive bed in the world is the sick bed. You can employ someone to drive the car for you, make money for you but you cannot have someone to bear sickness for you. Material things lost can be found. But there is one thing that can never be found when it is lost – Life. Treasure Love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends. Treat yourself well. Cherish others.” - SJ

EVIL CANNOT BE TRULY DESTROYED.

"The threat of evil is ever present. We can contain it as long as we stay vigilant, but it can never truly be destroyed. - Lorraine Warren (Annabelle, the movie)


ONLY THE POOR WISH THEY HAD STUFF?

“I’m not that interested in material things. As long as I find a good bed that I can sleep in, that’s enough.” - Nicolas Berggruem, the homeless billionaire.

TESTICLES LOCK-BOX, PANACEA FOR HAPPY MARRIAGE - OBAMA?

Icheoku queries, did President Barack Obama just said what we heard he said that men should pony up their manhood as a trade-off for a happy marriage? If Icheoku correctly heard that as being a true statement or rather a "good marriage" counsel from the president, then we certainly have some problems with the CNC. Icheoku disagrees with the president on this especially since the president did not set parameters and limits on what the man must agree to once voiced out by the wife.

Just say yes and do whatever your wife tells you is rather too broad a medicine to swallow and could lead to some undesirable terrible consequences. Icheoku knows a lot of women who do not like or see eye to eye with their mothers-inlaw and if we understand the president correctly, if such women tell their husband to do away with the woman who brought them to this world, its is okay? What about those women who do not like their husbands relatives and prefers theirs to his instead? Is the president also telling us that it is okay for a man to become completely isolated from his own biological family just because his wife says so? What about those women who pressurize their husbands into committing crimes? Is it still okay for men to do what they tell them Mr President? Which reminds Icheoku that Shakespearean Macbeth would not have betrayed his friend Duncan and killed him except that he was following what President Obama said is the key to a happy marriage. Needless to add that Duncan's death truly brought bliss to the union and all his ghost never appeared?

Icheoku wonders, could this be the reason why so many married men are somewhat zombie-like and exhibits certain fear-tendencies just to keep up the appearance of a happily married life? Icheoku says it is one tough bitter pill to swallow and that might definitely explain why so many alpha-males, who do not and cannot pretend that things are honky-dory when they are not or totally sacrifice their manhood just to be "happily married", are either not married or have been divorced severally. At least the president could have qualified his position with some reasonable limitations set, instead of the umbrage of free checks he has unwittingly written to women of America especially, who will now reference him while dishing it out to their cowering husbands. What the president said reminds Icheoku of a discussion he once had with a woman on the secrets of a happy working marriage. The woman said she has been married for forty odd years and from her experience, marriage works only in one directional way and condition. According to her, for any marriage to work, the relationship between the husband and the wife must be like that existing between a dog and a dog-owner with the woman being the dog-owner, period. Another woman posited that there is always an element of struggle for control in marriages and the women only understand conquest; and must always win the battle for superiority between master and servant for there to be peace in the marriage. Another woman in Southern California toasted her husband's fiftieth birthday thus - "happy wife, happy life!"

My father once told me that whenever the woman of the house is happy, everybody is happy but whenever she is mad or angry, no one laughs. That is the way and the only way that would ensure the pretension of normalcy in marriages or working marriages which people see in many homes. So for those people whose marriages never worked, the problem has now been solved for you in case you have any future plans. Like Rush Limbaugh said, women go into marriages clutching testicles lock-boxes with which they lock their husbands' manhood and turn them into glorified slave/servant - the trophy they won and to who they dictate to as they may deem fit. Like their dogs, men walk or eat or even bark at their wife's pleasure, no questions asked; as either no answers will be given or they ask you a follow-up question in answer to your question. What a glorified slavery and servitude and bondage that would translate to and who said that happy are men so yoked down in marriages? But who really wants that as a trade off to a seemingly working good marriage, not people known to Icheoku; may be not just yet. However the president failed or refused or did not tell us who does all the telling and who does all the doing in gay marriages of two women or two men? Just curious. What a counselor and advocate for men the president really is? Icheoku says if not that Mitt Romney is not a tolerable option, President Obama might lose my vote on this; but hey he is the president and he listened to his wife into the White House!
