Ohh now i'm really pissed off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Its no news that there's scarcity in the land. i spent the whole of Saturday looking for this product which we readily produce the parent material, export it and then import just some of the finished products( Kerosene, Diesel,PMS are the main products imported at High prices... Wax and other products are some of the by products of crude which we don't bring back)law's of demand and supply infer that this doesn't make sense, No where else in the is this done!!!!
The reason for my anger, My Blog has been getting fewer hits due to the scarcity( how can anyone be interested in you telling 'em about Torque steer, when he doesn't know where the next drop of Fuel for his Car and Gen will come from)?
I don't get it, Nigeria's has basically one mode of transportation:Road, and everything on the road is fueled by Petroleum products( at least in Nigeria). So how can the Government (Old and present) keep on playing games with such an essential commodity? Fuel attendants, Station owners are all smiling to the bank due to the chaos the Government of the day is causing. It pains me dearly because i don't understand it... How can we have so much, yet suffer so much? how can we be suffering yet smiling? 5th Largest OPEC producer???? God have Mercy on us all (for the Govt. for being senseless to the plight of the people and for the rest of us being too weak and afraid or un-concerned to care).
The entire bit of the Holidays are almost completely ruined. The losses to the Economy will be incalculable. In the US, business owners look Fwd to the Xmas holidays. Here we're greeted always with Fuel Scarcity(it was the same thing last year). We now have a situation where fuel stations pray for Scarcity.
Yar-Adua, I advise you do what is necessary. Listen,look at Nigerians. We deserve better. Get your act right cuz if my blog suffers any more loss in Hits, I'm gonna come take your Job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

10 Things!!!!!

Now lets see how many good reasons you can give for the "Whip" you're driving. I call my Car Slama and i came up with 10 reason why i love her easilly. How many can you come up with for yours?
1. She's German
2. She has a good power to weight ratio
3. People tend to underestimate her (being a Golf MK II) and as such i have embarrased some unsuspecting drivers
4. She's small and as such can be manoeuvred easilly
5. I feel safe driving at any time and in any part of lagos
6. She can breakdown and i aint afraid to leave her there for the night
7. She has a short wheel base and fitted to high profile tyres, becomes an SUV
8. She don't drink (she ain't a gas guzzler)
9. Hardly do i ever get stopped by the 'Popo' ( as a friend once said, they won't stop me for fear of not wanting me to obtain them)
10. Her lineage has been around for over 30 years. She has a current edition( she definatley has a scret recipe. i'm driving a well engineered car)
and yeah with the windows wound up and the doors not locked, there are only 3 people alive that can open her doors... talk about keyless entry!!!!
