The Abyssinians --- Satta Massa Gana

There is a land far, far away
Where there's no night, there's only day
Look into the book of life and you will see
That there's a land far, far away
That there's a land far, far away.

: The King of Kings and the Lord of Lords
Sits upon his throne and He rules us all
Look into the book of life and you will see
That He rules us all
That He rules us all. :

There is a land...

A very controversial song. Up until now...

Any thoughts?

Entrecard Advert Settings On!

2009-08-20T19:45:00.000-07:00

I wanted to apologize to all my online friends, droppers and EC advertisers. I haven't been online for a week because of 2 things - busy buy schedule at work and preparing for my vacation.

So now I am taking the opportunity to thank all those who have passed by and left comments! I will check out your links today. And update later on about my upcoming vacation.

For now, looking at my list for preparation, I am activating automatic EC ads on my blogs! No need for approval, all will be showing their ads in chronological order of dropping.

Music Monday: It ain't UB40, nor Bob Marley!

2009-08-17T19:54:00.000-07:00

Red, red wine
Go to my head
Makes me forget that I
Still need her so

Red, red wine
It's up to you
All I can do, I've done
Memories won't go
Memories won't go

I'd have sworn
That with time
Thoughts of you
Would leave my head
I was wrong
Now I find
Just one thing makes me forget

Red, red wine
Stay close to me
Don't let me be alone
It's tearin' apart
My blue, blue heart

I'd have sworn
That with time
Thoughts of her
Would leave my head
I was wrong
And I find
Just one thing makes me forget

Red, red wine
Stay close to me
Don't let me be alone
It's tearin' apart
My blue, blue heart...

Some people mistake "Red Red Wine" as a song by Bob Marley! But with the song above, I don't know why they didn't recognize the voice! The tone is reggae and reggae is not only Bob Marley. But listen, the voice gives it away. And in all honesty, this is the best version of the Neil Diamond song.

Surprised?

Listen to the Original song here. And you be the judge.

Saturday Nine: The Longest Time

2009-08-15T19:04:00.000-07:00

1. What's the longest time that you've waited to meet your date?
Almost a decade ago. I had a bf who made me wait for more than Two hours. And I ended up going to his house to see what happened. He was stoned.

2. What's the longest time that you've waited for a job interview?
A month. But I had work then too, so time was not that long then. I just quit a job when the new one gave me papers to sign. So technically, there was no vacant time in between jobs for me.

3. What's the longest time that you've waited to have sex the first time with someone?
LOL nice question, I don't really wait that long if I WANT someone. Ha!

4. What's the longest time that you've not gone out on the town?
Ohhh... 3 weeks! When I had a car accident. It was simply impossible to go about with my aching legs!

5. What's the longest time that you've worked without a break?
One full day. No breaks, too much pressure at work I only step out of the room to pee. I litarally have to eat on my desk!

6. What's the longest time that you've not posted on your blog?
On my other blog that I removed the link from here. A colleague caught me and I just can't risk it, since I prefer to stay in my anonoymity.

7. What's the longest time that you've been on the computer?
24 hours! Ha... I was trying to design a blog and some codes just takes hours to find and implement! LOL

8. What's the longest time that you've waited for a friend?
Oh lost count of the years. I had a best guy friend in college and I just seem to wait for him until now... Sad huh.

9. What's the longest time that you've gone without food?
Hmm, if crackers and liquid drinks don't count, 3 days. I was on a diet but I simply cannot resist pesto. That broke my supposedly one week without food!

Adgitize Advertising Discounts!

2009-08-14T19:35:00.000-07:00

Adgitize just created a new program that encourage advertisers to place more than one ad with the system. They are discounting the 3rd ad placed on the Adgitize Ad Network to only $13 a month. The 4th ad will be discounted to $12 a month!

Now, advertisers should be happy to have reduced costs for placing extra ads. Advertiser/publisher members who do both will be happy as well because additional ads will now be rewarded with additional points.

1st ad = 100 points a day
2nd ad = +50 points a day
3rd ad = +25 points a day
4th ad = +25 points a day

With increased ads from advertisers - publishers should see their net revenue rise too!

So those who do not have an ad at Adgitize yet, this is the perfect time to join us! PLUS, if you will be among the 1st 5 who signs up using the banner above, then I will give you REWARDS! Read the rewards bonus system that I have for you here!

"You Raise Me Up" - JOSH GROBAN

When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

There is no life - no life without its hunger;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But when you come and I am filled with wonder,
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up... To more than I can be.
