So I acutally used my GTB MasterCard debit card to buy a socket converter (3-pin to 2-pin) for my BlackBerry charger in Amsterdam.<\/p>\n
Couldn’t be sure of the pin (6553) but luckily they had a POS and so the card was just swiped through that. So there – my very first credit (ok debit) card purchase – I am now a card-carrying technophile of teh 21st century – dont go anywhere without it – no, not your credit card – your brains!<\/p>\n

A man came to the table where I was sitted charging my phone, first he whipped out his wallet which had about 9 cards in it, he couldn’t find what he was looking for, so he brought out a larger plastic holder of some sort and this one had probably 10 or more cards in it!<\/p>\n
Finally, he went back to the initial wallet, fished out a card and put it in the inner pocket of his jacket. With that he zipped up \u00a0his hand luggage and he was gone.<\/p>\n
We all live, we go about our daily lives, we die, do we pay attention to God? i think not<\/p>\n

I did some “shoulder-surfing” and discovered the company and employee number of one WINNIE WONG. I have decided to lose the details because I had a strong temptation to post it here and that may do her a world of hurt somewhere down the line.<\/p>\n

On the queue into the airplane at Amsterdam an elderly could behind me, the wife is on the phone and turns to her husband and goes:<\/p>\n
“Oh dear God, we’ve had a power outtage” followed by a string of “Oh no”, “Oh God”, “Dear God”, …. as the party on the other end of the line supplied more details. Finally, I heard that they had had a storm.<\/p>\n
Leaving out the storm, if 160million Nigerians call out “Oh Dear God” everytime we have a power outtage, that line would be jammed (from the human end of course), then blocked completely – no more coverage over Nigeria – because at least a quarter of the 160million would be taking the Lord’s name in vain!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
