Blog Reviews

 Thumbs down

  1. Sorry but it seems menopause has hit early for this Sarah Palin excuse for a ghana woman. Get a life and stop being so full of your damn self - Anonymous
  2. Esi or whatever your name is, I am rather disappointed in your lack of discernment. You seem very ignorant, inconsiderate and most of all unbelievable. I think you must really consider re-evaluating your sense of humor becasue you are stepping on others' toes. We want to be happy to read your blog and not see others upset over your ignorance. I'm sure you're educated enough; I know common sense is not common but use your brain! It looks like you resent certain people; free yourself from resentment!
