Yeah, quite impressive & an honour to work with Greg House.
There was also a kenyan girl on the American next top model show called sandra nyanchoka, though she didn't win she bitched around like a real kenyan.

We really are going places. But you wouldnt know this if you listened to the naysayers and losers among us. We have donated a president to the 'mighty' america, are soon giving the brits a queen, we have a mayor in canada, a cnn hero, and the list goes on and on. And somebody has the audacity to stand in our august house and declare we need a foreigner sort all our issues. Najivunia kuwa mkenya!

@ mgeman, hear hear

True. We must learn to report and celebrate good news and our achievements. Also tired of listening to people who never have anything good / positive to report. Too many times we let other people write our stories for us, and choose what stories to write about us. That’s why Africa gets painted as a dark continent; we’re either preparing for war or just recovering from one, hunger, corruption etc etc. More success stories tafadhali. We need a new focus.

It is now that you are watching that season of House? Sad Sad . Ama you have just discovered House?

Anyways good you brought it up. The young man is doing well over there. And what he has done is to say the least pretty impressive.

Engineer Evans Wadongo does it again! He has been awarded as one of the three people whose work has most impacted the world. The other two are Ted Turner he of CNN and Timothy Bernes-Lee who is credited with starting the internet.

Let's be careful with titles.... nevertheless, Wadongo is flying high... and if you ask him he's not doing it to "put Kenya on the map", all he wants is to give people safe and reliable light...

Edi Gathegi stars as the villain in NIKITA season 1 episode 19. Well done! I was impressed.
Set out to correct the world's wrongs and you will most certainly wind up adding to them.

Wendz; i stand corrected!
Nostoppingthis; totally agree with you, that was actually the idea.
Mukiha; titles you say? Am sure you know it on requires a copy of the id, the degree, ksh. 1000 and a visit to transcom house for one to be certified as a graduate engineer! No offense but he said engineer wadongo is driven, 'by putting kenya on the map' no higher achiever is driven by such base considerations but their accomplishments attract fame and admiration from the whole universe.

So went to watch X-man First Class on Saturday with my 2 ladies, and one of the mutants was Ed, though it was a cameo appearance (magnito got rid of him almost immediately)must say was brilliant to see him again, certainly one to watch out for in the future.

The greatest danger in times of turbulence is not the turbulence; it is to act with yesterday's logic.

Definitely @Ric Dees - those are high profile cameos, even if they're just that - most of these big A-list stars started off in funny low budget movies and loook where they are now. He's definitely one to watch out for...wish guys like Oliech and Mariga could join EPL teams in the near future where we'd be watching them every other weekend, hopefully getting first team action. The future is bright!
