Just a quick message to say that I am still breathing, Tom Cruise is a
fruit cake (a lucky one, but a cake nonetheless), and that Cosatu are a
bunch of idiots sometimes. There, a whole sweep of broad, baseless
claims, with no supporting evidence.
Use google.

Gawd…
Thank fuck that this day is over!
Wow, ye olde Souf Afrika made Google News headlines – I suppose when the darling of Africa fires their deputy president it is kinda big newsd innit? Check out Commentary’s review. I’d provide for zaBlogger as well, but he seems to have misplaced the keys to his blog…

Well, what can I say about this rather remarkable movie? Set in pre-unified China, the story recounts the plot of an assasin known only as Nameless (Jet Li) in his quest to slay the emperor of the time. Via a series of flashbacks, the story unfolds as Nameless recounts his battles [...]

It looks like the boys at Intel have been busy.

He states that we shouldn’t expect Apple to be a direct competitor for Microsoft in the software department and quite rightly states that Apple [...]

I’ll be the first to admit that I do not know much about the running of parliment. I must admit, however, that I found it utterly amusing this morning as I watched the Chief Whip of the DA get shouted down by the madam speaker for asking Jacob Zuma about his intentions. She went insofar [...]

I’m not entirely sure how I should take this news. They say that it will reduce call costs as the network providers will reduce their inflated call prices that they use to recompensate the ‘free’ cell phones they provide.
Well, I guess that would be a positive. Does that mean that the after the 100 free [...]

Well, thankfully, this day is heading rapidly towards an end. It has been a somewhat disgusting day that I wouldn’t wish to repeat again. On the upside, the courts of South Africa did something positive, they foung Shabir Sheik guilty and handed him a proper sentence: 15 years. He was actually sentenced on all three [...]
