Awesomeness!
An ounce of gold is worth R10 033.58 as of right now. I can almost pay a month of my bond with my gold bar.
I don’t know who to vote for
Come 22 April 2009, we enter a new phase in South African politics. While it's not as ground breaking as the 1994 election (in which I was a few months too young to vote), it's the end of the honeymoon period of Nelson Mandela and his protégé, Thabo Mbeki. I'm talking about the newest four-letter word: Zuma.
Vote!
I received this in my email. I cannot vouch for the source, but I support the sentiment. If you are South African and will be at lease 18 years of age on 22 April 2009, I urge you to read this.
I don’t envy Obama
Even if it was the angry old white man in the White House, I wouldn't envy anyone in that position right now. The US economy is in a recession, major corporations are closed or closing, and the world is not very amused with George W Bush.
I think I finally understand what netbooks are for
Netbooks – I mean, what's the point, right? It's like Tom Cruise pretending (badly) to be a Nazi soldier, but not changing his accent. Granted, there is a school of acting which says you shouldn't do the accents and just be yourself, but I think I'm off on another Tomcruise Tangent (I'm copyrighting that) …
My next car
A Vision blue Ford Fiesta 1.6 Trend. I've made up my mind. I really like the Fiat Bravo 1.4 Sport, but I can't afford R215 000 for it, even with a trade-in.
