 As I'm writing this, I'm just from listening to a song called just in case ( I kind of forgot the artists name) then ikavunja the creative block nilikuwa nayo kama venye that squirrel huwa inavunja that acorn imekuwa ikichase for the longest time ever (Kama hauget, go watch Ice Age).  Anyway, najua mmeona hii kwa most action or horror movie or series. Kuna ngori fulani in the horizon imetokea, there's a slim chance of the protagonist and their group or person they are with to survive.

A good bunch of you I presume, you may have started venturing into gambling recently, my advice to you is get out while you still can.  My paths with gambling crossed early on when I was young, back in the days when life was not complicated, fast paced or realized that some of your biggest enemies are close friends and relatives.  Enough about that, now where we?  Oooh yes,  how my paths crossed with gambling.  The very first time was in my hood, somewhere in this city, where everyone is  suspicious of the other. It was a beautiful mid morning, sunny but windy day, the sun was overhead, we were playing, street football to be precise, beads of sweat rolling down our heads, back, and arms.  Clouds of dust could be seen rising either by the wind or by us, as we ran, kicked the ball from one corner of the fiel...
