Democracy

Posted by: jebbx on: April 25, 2006

The ANC lost the elections in Cape Town and via some political manuevering the DA came into power. Hellen Zille was then elected mayor. Ah, Democracy.
While I have that sinking feeling that come the floor crossing escapades the DA will lose control of the Cape Town Metropol, it annoys me how the flunkies of the [...]

Just cool…

I needs one.
I have no real use for it at this time already being in possession of a suitably sized (for now) USB stick…
But I needs one…
My precious!

Capo de Tutti Capo… or something like that

Posted by: jebbx on: April 12, 2006

So they caught the Don of Don’s eh? Impressive. Sometimes I forget that there is an Italian Mafia – sounds odd, I know, but it doesn’t involve me and isn’t in our papers very often.

The thing is, I have [...]

“Happy Birthday-ANC deputy president. It’s a shame that in your trial all State prosecutors are all former apartheid operatives. We are noting this one with greatest concerns. Indigenous South Africans must now be trained to handle these roles,” wrote Peter-Kenyan.
This comes from here.
Good… God…
I have watched the train-wreck that the Jacob Zuma Rape Trial has [...]

Iran, Nuclear Weapons and Stuff

Posted by: jebbx on: April 12, 2006

So Iran has finally developed their nuclear enrichment process (see the Reuters UK article above). What does this mean?
Well, according to some of the American lobyists it means that they are now on their way to developing nuclear weapons, but that it will still take some years before they do so. Concerning, however, is that [...]
