the weekend came along with interesting news.

first, cindy is pregnant.not with rabadaba's kid, thank God, because Lord knows am still reeling from the lilian-radio debacle,and by that i mean from her pregnancy right to her moving in with the goodlyf boys.but remember when, at a concert, cindy asked the crowd who her boyfriend was and the crowd unanimously answered rabadaba and she got so angry and gave the crowd an earful? lol. that will teach her to stop pretending that her boyfriend (mario) is not her boyfriend.anyhoo, she is five months pregnant, which would mean that she was still denying they were an item when she was already pregnant.(in the same way people put smily faces at the end of sentences, were it to be available,this would be the sentence at the end of which a confused face would be appropriate.)

login on sunday( which was a rerun so am sure am stale news) is where the big announcement took place. cindy was all smily and shy when asked about her obvious baby bump.like she didn't want us to know they had, you know, done it. but mario joined her for the interview and he was all like 'yeah, we did it.we had sex.and now we are five months pregnant.' his answer wasn't in those exact words per se, but he was very forthcoming in the way that only whites can be.

also,i saw ' the hostel' trailer for the first time and i don't know if i can wait till march! people, must watch tv just! as was mukyala mugerwa,btw. i still remember that crazy woman's killing outfits with fondness. but in case you are wondering, the hostel is a series about a group of university students(from MUK presumably.for some reason, u never hear of a university movie/series acted in, say,Lugazi university) staying in a hostel, that if am not mistaken, is also called The Hostel? but i guess there are worse hostel names.for one, it could have so easily been called Sir Pinto. anyway, so its about residents of the hostel ( of which helen lukoma of hb toxic and two characters from my beloved 'the campus movie' are among) and the shenenigans they get up to.


AGATALIKO NFUNFU!!!!!!!!


last but not least, AGATALIKO NFUNFU!!!! can we all just collectively clutch our heads in awe, shock, bewilderement and wonder? every time i watch AGATALIKO NFUNFU!! ,by the end, my jaw is forgotten on the ground and am left mumbling in confusion, 'HOW?! WHERE?! WHEN?!!'. never doubt red pepper when they quote the last words of a couple that gets burned in a hostel fire in mukono because AGTALIKO NFUNFU!! will bring those last words to you live!!!
ps-if ur wondering about the capital letters and exclammation, well that is just how incredulous and epic AGATALIKO NFUNFU!! is.

my take on the controversial topic-homosexuality.

on friday, while waiting for the lecturer to show up, my classmates and i ended up in an argument about the bahati law. how i got pulled into this particular argument, i know not, because ordinarily i don't involve myself in arguments that have no end in sight. if a conversation turns into an argument about homosexuality, religion or museveni versus besigye, then am out of there .fast.every one was on the bahati, african culture and christian side so naturally i had to be on the defensive. needless to say, by the time we realised that the lecturer was not coming and we might as well go back to our hostels: an hour had passed; i had been accused of being a gay supporter; being single handedly responsible for the moral decay in our society and one girl had,in threatening tone, pointed at me and said,'am watching you'.

HERE IS MY TAKE ON THIS CONTROVERSIAL TOPIC

we are all different. why? because we come from different backgrounds and are there fore influenced by different cultures , religion, beliefs and circumstances. as a christian and an african, homosexuality is against my beliefs.having said that, i shouldn't be harrassed because of what i believe in. but am also aware that there are people out there who are neither christians,nor africans and therefore do not necessarily adhere to my rules.which is fine.and even though they are africans, they are entitled to their own opinions.i don't care what your opinion is, my view is, regardless of a person's race, religion, background and sexual orientation, AS LONG AS YOU ARE A HUMAN BEING, YOU DESERVE TO BE TREATED WITH RESPECT AND INTERGRITY!! christians and moslems don't have similar beliefs, yet they manage to live and work side by side.can you imagine what would happen if, say, moslems declared a jihad and started killing all non moslems? violence has never solved anything and it never will.

and as for those who hide behind christianity and the soddom and gomorrah story, killing gay people is not going to earn you points in heaven because its hateful yet, to the best of my knowledge, God is the complete opposite of this. GOD is LOVE.remember,'let he who has never sinned cast the first stone.'

work it out already!!!!!!


versus





like the genius brittany s. pierce once said,
'stop the violence!'

why is there so much violence and hostility among ugandan celebrities?
after years of not watching pandonor ( i can't stand precious tm's presenting style),i decided to tune in to you know, see what
uganda's celebrities were up to and all. i mean, its not like i buy scoop every friday and our office is strictly team new vision.

first, there was the pleasant suprise when i realised that precious tm was no where to be seen (she is on maternity leave, i think.take your time, precious).instead, the presenting duties had been taken over by the wheather girl.yes, the expression on her face seemed to say,'when is this torture ending so i can go back to telling ugandans how its going to rain for 5 minutes tomorrow' but i was well happy. and she is pretty. my A level literature teacher's theory is that only pretty people should be on television because our regular lives are stressing enough.

a number of people were featured that day but the most interesting and jaw dropping interview was weasel's, chameleon's brother. apparently, weasel and radio are fed up of chameleon's violence towards them. so apart from making those posters, he decided to go on television to talk about the matter and in the process ended up revealing some dark family secrets that, were this to be another country, could lead to chameleon landing in jail.

this is what i got from the interview:
a) weasel and radio no longer have beef with bebecool. i know, i know, i felt the earthquake too
b) radio and weasel, instead of tithing, are going to dedicate ten percent of whatever they make to those anti chameleon's violence posters
c) chameleon once beat up weasel's girlfriend and proceeded to rape her. it sounds like bukedde news, which btw am tempted to believe is acted,but weasel swears this is true
d) prior to their nakudatta hit, he had been thrown out of chameleon's house and was leaving in a one roomed house with moze radio. who is laughing now, right?
e) chameleon cheats on his wife left, right and center. at this point in the interview, weasel made an emotional appeal to his brother to respect his wife.

why not sit down, talk and settle your differences? why wait for this whole nonsense to end in the manner of biggie and tupac?

six lane highway for entebbe-kampala route!!!


exciting news for entebbe residents. and by entebbe residents, i mean those whose walets are happy. because if your walet is contented, chances are, you have a personal car that takes you to and from work. am assuming work is in kampala.and if you have a car, chances are, u have been endlessly irritated by the narrow entebbe- kampala road that we are,for some reason, always mistaking for a highway.

you can now go down on your knees and thank the good Lord because a six and four lane highway will soon be upon us . as of july, construction will begin on this multi million dollar highway that, if we are to pay attention to figures (cost of $6 million per kilometer and a total cost of over $300 million), will be one of the most expensive roads in the world! fret not about the money, every one will do their bit to contribute ie tax payers, government, donors, et ce tera.even with every one chipping in to help, it is going to be very exclusive. yes, their will be a toll tax charged and whoever can't pay won't be allowed to use the road.

'how in God's name will this be done?' you ask.
how indeed?

Microchip technology will be used to ensure payment from those bold enough to use the road.

but why the fuss about how people get to use the road?

its all for security reasons. should there be a need for the president to escape from the state house, road would be the most safe alternative. a fleeing boat on lake victoria can easily be seen, ditto an aeroplane, which could then easily be brought down.
problem is entebbe- kampala road is so narrow and congested that it would be hard to make a quick escape. hence, the idea of a wide road made even more traffic free by a toll tax.

yes, grace is wearing a jumpsuit!


long before willow smith, grace nakimera's dancers showed us what it truly meant to whip one's hair. and between grace nakimera's legs, no less, because who in their right mind can forget the epicness that was anfunkula, uganda's first nine million shilling video? which presumably was sponsored by grace's older caucasian boyfriend and his boss silvia owori. as much as pinky salon is a successful business, i have seen that place and i don't think it is capable of funding such a video.also, how awesome is the thought of having grace nakimera sew a weave on to one's head? pretty dope, right?

which brings us to the bizareness(yes i know that the word doesn't exist) that is this jumpsuit. i hope grace isn't going to ask her lover to sexually set her free because he will take one look at that shiny second skin and scatter for the hills. and then, in a few years, grace will be looking through her achives, take one look at this outfit too, let out one ear drum shuttering scream and dump all her girlfriends.no person lets a friend walk out of the house wearing something like this unless they are jelous of their friend's success.

what am trying to say is, i feel like this outfit will come back to haunt grace nakimera one day.

WORRYING ABOUT NANKABIRWA

A friend and I were hanging out recently when in one of those moments when you have run out of conversation, she blurted out that Nankabirwa Rosemary, yes the Ntv news anchor, is 40 years old. You guys, the argument that followed almost had us raining blows on each others worn out braids. She insisted this piece of gossip was from a legitimate source while I swore on my baby doll from my tenth birthday that Nankabirwa,she of the lovely hair and skin, can’t be a day over 31 at the most. But then a few days ago I was watching news and it was like Nankabirwa had aged overnight! It was like watching The Simpson movie all over again. You remember the part when the town runs out of supplies including botox and as the news anchor is getting on with his job of reading news, his face suddenly sags and he has to hold back his skin with a tooth pick? Meanwhile that movie was really hilarious. Not that Nankabirwa has run out of botox, obviously, because as much as Ntv has the most well paid news anchorS, the salary can’t be at that level! But am I right in being worried about Nankabirwa? Have we all noticed this change?
