<< The List Managers CANNOT do nothing >>

EB:
I suggest you watch the 'double negatives,' if you get my drift. :)

BTW, I will be the first one to tell you that I am no angel. But I respect
most list members and like this list, the reason why I take many hours of my
time to contribute to different topics here.  The list archives are
testaments to this fact.

Problem is you don't know me, but folks who know will tell you that I am the
one of the nicest people you'll ever meet.  However, when miscreants like
Ebou Jallow and others insult my family and deliver threatening notes to my
house in Gambia, you can bet I'll throw the kitchen sink at them and even
more if possible.

Folks like EB are what the Mobb Deep refers to as the "shook ones."  This
'shook one' phenomenon is the typical Gambian 'Yahla Bahna' phenomena.  They
cringe like cowards at the slightest furor, yet they will never contribute to
issues or fight to change the status quo, whether it directly affects them or
not.

If I am different from this cowardice responsible for blighting our society
and setting us back by giving us Yahya Jammeh, then I am proud to be
different.

Let the managers go ahead and delist me if they don't like my approach.

-Yus
