ID to bring back scorpions among other things
January 19, 2009 by evl
The Independent democrats said they will also bring back the scorpions. I wonder where they got that idea from. I bet you all the other parties might bring it back as well. Except off course for the ANC. Nope, you can be sure they wont bring back the scorpions.
The Independent Democrats national election manifesto will among others focus on the re-introduction of the Scorpions, restoring the public's faith in the police and addressing social ills, party leader Patricia Delille said on Sunday.

Al Quaeda blames Barack Obama for Israel-Gaza conflict
January 7, 2009 by Daizy
Seeing that the conflict goes back to 1960 I cannot fathom why they can blame him. Apparently they believe it's Obama's present to Israel. Huh?! Ok how can a war that was started by Hamas even remotely be blamed on Obama or America.The way the Muslims continue to think that the world revolves around hating them, is seriously clouding their judgment. Hamas continual rocket fire into Israel started this current battle, not Obama. Then they people argue put Hamas has the right to be angry because they live in a segregated community. Now flashback to when the border was made and the Israeli's was forcefully removed from their homes to give it to the Palestinians, all the Arab countries agreed upon the boundaries. Actually everyone was happy to force Israel into giving Gaza to the Palestinians. What a mistake. The Israeli's created and oasis where there was desert. They built all the hospitals and schools they had flourishing greenhouses. Where is all those things? Destroyed by Hamas for some inexplicable reason. Their hate so much stronger than their common sense. I saw on tv how the Israeli settlers cried over they're homes and farms as they where being forced from their homes. Back then it was green and beautiful now it's becoming desert again.
Green houses before Palestinians took over Gaza
They burned them all 14$million worth greenhouses destroyed for arms smuggling tunnels.
Canoe or Kayak camping
December 24, 2008 by evl
Canoe or Kayak camping might be one of the most adventures things to do on a december holiday. What it basically is, its packing your canoe or kayak with what you need to camp going down the river and camping as you go down. Now this might not be possible for those extreme kayakers but it sure if fun if you are not that much into the rough waters. The reason I am saying this is because your camping gear will most probably slow you down and you wont be able to take on the real big falls with all that weight. There are basically three things you need to pack in for such a trip. Food Clothing ShelterHow many votes could the ANC of lost
December 21, 2008 by evl
I was just thinking this morning that if everyone that has left the country because of corruption and crime could vote, there would be thousands if not hundred thousands of extra votes for other parties.
Most people probably left because of the ANC's way of ruling or rather not ruling the country. First there was Mbeki that did not have a clue what was going on and now there is the second half of the ANC with the Zuma crowd and who knows what will happen next year.
If everyone came back that emigrated and moved to other countries we would have a massive chance of breaking this 2/3 majority.
But I know that wont happen. To be honest if I could of emigrated I would of done so long ago.
Oprah talking about her weight gain
December 15, 2008 by Daizy
Oprah is doing a series on her weight gain and how she is going to try and get her figure back. Almost everyone has gone through this and it's refreshing that she is willing to admin that she has put on weight. This is one of the reasons everyone loves Oprah she is willing to share these normal things that we all struggle with.
Most South African bloggers are from Cape Town
December 7, 2008 by evl
That's strange. I would not of thought that most bloggers would be from Cape Town that blog and live in South Africa. My guess would of been Johannesburg. According to "Sake 24" something like 88% come from Cape Town.
I guess its called the laid back city for a reason but this is also the silicon valley of South Africa.
Cape Town as far as I know also has the best internet connections and most people that live here are not obsessed with work. At least the ones that I know.
Interesting.
Entrance to Matjiesfontein Lord Milner Hotel
December 3, 2008 by evl
Matjiesfontein is one of the best places I've had a holiday at. As you drive in the only thing that basically reminds you that you are not in the 18th century is maybe your cellphone or the cars standing outside. Everything about Matjiesfontein's look and feel is like you are back 100 years.
Even the entrance as you can see here is something out of a Victorian movie.
