What makes me  Hatred is that these morons who have run a once prosperous country into the ground with their corruption, greed and general apathy towards the public now say "there is no evidence" that they sold arms to Putin. Yeah right. TongueOut

The South African government is a communicable disease in itself.

I have noticed the deeper one looks into the life of Mandela, the less admirable he comes across, and frankly I am not sure he deserves his iconic standing. I also know no one is all good or all bad, and I don't doubt there are instances when he did good things.

Trevor, by complete coincidence, I've been listening to two albums from S.A. jazz musicians this week (Bokani Dyer, Mthunzi Mvubu). So your cultural scene is thriving, at least.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
