In my previous post, I was caught up in the spirit of tabloid sensationalist journalist and started blabbing on and on about the crapness of South Africa and the power(less) situation down there. Personally, the only info I receive is from friends ad family down there and if it weren't for them, I too would be left out in the dark - so to speak.
So, a sharp slap on the wrist for me, and lashings as well. A good scolding would not be complete without lashings.
I'm not going to write about the power situation in South Africa anymore. I have learned my lesson. Do not write about which that you do not know. First rule of journalism. No, I am not a journalist, but it was my major in college.
So in future, family and friends, if you want to tell me about how difficult it is living in the dark, please leave me in it. I will send you a petrol-operated power generator and we can call it quits. Deal?

Hey, we have total press freedom here now - so you're free to carry on writing what you think and I am free to rip your opinions to little shreds!
So far today we're not in darkness, but then that may be because the sun is shining.
