New Windows Live Toolbar with Onfolio crashes my IE 7 Beta

Not to be left behind in the new and appearing software, I went on to download the all new Windows Live Toolbar with Onfolio add-in. Poor new software guinea pig me! The thing kept crushing my IE 7 Beta. It only could work when I decided to uninstal and revert to the old MSN Toolbar. Just like the other security suite available as Windows Live OneCare which either switched off my Windows Firewall while its own Firewall could not start, I will not rush to any of them. At least not for now. My advice; slow down on those Live packages until they are past the beta stage.

Yahoo! Crushing my Firefox 1.5

As I write this I have almost given up on something I like most. The integration of the Blue Frog anti-spam extension into FF 1.5 makes my spam reporting effortless. However, I almost can't work with Yahoo! Mail in FF anymore. The page crushes and I have to do the manual reporting of spam. Anybody with helpful info out there? I'm desperate, I need my FF to work with Y!Mail, badly. Additionally, the Yahoo page cannot display well, especially whenever I want to read sports. Like the top list on sports cannot display well. If I choose NBA from the sports page, I cannot see the other links and I would love to switch between NBA and Soccer. Help!

You slept beside me last night

dedicated to Ednah, the love of my youth

When I went to bed last night,
you weren't there with me,
Before I slept.. I didn't see you,
But I know you slept with me last night.

I pulled you and stroked your cheek,
I felt the warmth of your broad smile,
As you squeezed my hand in reply,
I kissed your succulent little lips,
I wanted to feel the tip of your nipples,
But you wore your tight bra and swim suit,
I wanted to gently massage your fleshy thigh,
But you came to bed in your tight jean,
You slept with me last night.

You closed me in your arms,
and I drifted in peaceful sleep,
When I awoke you weren't there beside me,
The door was secured like when I had slept,
It was only a dream.. but I know you slept with me.

Mama I owe it to you!

Dedicated to my Mama, 65 years, for the patience and grace.

You bore our twin burden in pregnancy,
ignoring the advice for abortion,
you were overcome by anticipation,
not knowing what we were,
you pulled through till our birth,
Mama I owe my life to you.

In labour alone you agonized,
the pangs too sharp to bear you fainted,
at my maiden feeble cry you awoke,
joyfully embracing your twin blessing,
eyes flooded with tears of motherhood.

When we were hungry you knew,
thirst or cold wasn't difficult to know,
when we were wet or soiled you cleaned us,
you chewed and gave us food to swallow,
you taught us speech and mama we spoke first,
I would never repay you enough,
Mama I owe my life to you.

Talented Yet Deprived


She awakes suddenly,
she darts to the river downstream,
sogged in the early morning raging storm,
to wash off the previous day's dust,
talented yet deprived she knows.
she milks the family cows after school,
she fetches water from the steep river,
she cooks for the family,
she washes the dishes each night,
she feeds her siblings,
That's the future African female Professor,
Talented yet deprived.
I must overcome,
she urges herself on,
education is the only hope,
she convinces herself,
nobody should think me weak,
just because I am female,
she assures herself,
For talented yet deprived she knows.
