High riding tender rockets dicovery

Whoowee are the headlines today indicative of someone having got their munchies today, or in the words of the advert - "I got it all today!"

Headline-1 "Stinging attack on tender system."
... Hmm, what system was tender?

Headline-2 "Rocket Woman to command Discovery"
... It's getting better! What discovery is she going to command and what did she have to do to be called the 'Rocket Woman'?

Headline-3 "Riding High!"
... There they go again. It just doesn't stop.

Headline-4 "Tim's on top form"
... I give up. What's with everyone today

Oh well, I suppose the sports section will be better.

Headline-5 "Keeping it in family"
... Cor! Even the surfers are giving it a shot.

Okay now, one last try on the back of the business page -

Headline-6 "Patta to grill Zim's Moyo"
... Well I'm just not going into that territory now. You can just make up your own mind on this one!

Terror in London Blasts paralyse heart of the city

Mercury - Terror in London

For once I have nothing to say...

I can only imagine the situation having lived through "terrorist" activities in SA during the apartheid years and also having lived in an apartment on Edgeware road in London for a number of years I am aquainted with the area. I too have family living and working in London - hope they are all ok!

All I can say that my heart goes out to the nation and its people.

I echo the sentiment of the Russian premier who calls for the hunting down and final eradication of terrorist bodies and organizations on a global basis.

Heath and Zuma hit snag & DJ fever

The Mercury <http://www.themercury.co.za/> today - Heath and Zuma hit snag.

Hmmm... now seeing that Heath was head of the special investigation unit on the arms deal and Zuma's been implicated in Shaik's arms deals and a "generally corrupt relationship", the headline really rasied a chuckle. I wondered whether the snag had something to do with Heath wanting Zuma to speak the truth. Didn't he perjure himself when giving evidence previously at the arms deal hearings, or did I miss something that time around?

DJ Fever - now that's the headline they should have used!


For the misinformed, DJ does not refer to a disk jockey in this case.

You might however be excused as
the picture shows two of the better East Coast Radio <http://www.ecr.co.za/> dj's, Damon and Mags.

It
refers to the Durban July horse race.

One of the social events on the annual calendar.
