yeah..i agree, theres a lott of other things kenya could be focussing on other than the olympics...but what if...
what if this bid is the Smartest urban management tactic that ochilo and his buddies are pulling?
imagine if kenya actually went ahead and put into place all the wheels to improve our current infrastructure so that we could host the olympics with some ounce of decency?
Fix the roads... fix up the slums...at least create some form of subsidized stock housing, so that when the international press is wandering round nairobi...they dont focus on the slums and the parts of kenya that we ought to be ashamed of.
they may even decide to flush the toilets in nyayo stadium and use harpic to make it smell nice.
RESULT...the Green City in the Sun is BACK!!
and not just for nairobi...imagine if this could happen in many of the surrounding cities/ towns!!
even if we lost the bid...think how different a nairobi we would have. think about the scores of revenue that could come to the kenya because of this infrasturcture that is there..just waiting to be used.
and since people will have stopped complaining about how bad nairobi looks, then we can all seriously focus on economic issues, poverty, unemployment and education issues!
i think it could wrk...stilll havent figured out where the $$ will come frm to do all this...but id be interested to watch this one unfold.
maoniz?

fingerprint
funny how the fingerprint is sooo damn unique, unchanging....idntifiable
by this lil ka thing...people can find out the most detailed aspect of ur life...assuming that you at one point gave that information to be kept on file....
tho in kenya..we all gave our finger print for the ID card...i just dont know how co,mputerized they are to have us all on file tho (sumthing else to investigate)
ne who...im having one of those days...feel like too many people are trying to scan my fingerprint for info
feel like people are up in my bizness
feelin a tad bit claustrophobic and all i REALLY want to do is run away and scream or something.....
the only person who is 'sorta' allowed to have my fingerprint..is the ZEBRA...coz reallly.if u look closely....thats what that could be.
just a random-too=early-in-the-morning thought...what if zebras were blown up fingerprints...????
DONT ANSWER THAT!!!
