November 2006


BoerbulPam Whyte, dubbed ‘The Dog Whisperer’, told a Cape Town couple that their two-year old Boerbul showed ‘early signs of hunting’ and the ’six elements of murderer’. The couple, who are thinking of starting a family and don’t want a dangerous dog around, subsequently had the poor pup put down, instead of giving it someone else, and a lot of people are grumpy.

And with reason, ‘cos Whyte continues and says “apparently all dogs have murderous intent”. The couple have one remaining dog, who “apparently eyes out their parrot.”

Fuck. Maybe they should put a bullet in his head too, ‘cos everyone knows that dogs don’t want to attack other animals, especially irritating parrots who tease them from their thrones above.

64-year old Pam Whyte, in my opinion, is a crazy old lady who thinks dogs can talk. Dog Whisperer? I’m thinking not.

UPDATE: Please do not post your Christmas Wishes on this blog, click here for the 94.7 Christmas Wishlist website. Thanks.

If you listen to 94.7 in the morning you’ll know all about the Rude Awakening team’s Christmas Wishlist segment, where they grant one person/family/community their Christmas wish. But it’s not like ‘I’d like a Ferrari’, it’s simple things that mean so much to the parties concerned.

Jeremy Mansfield and his bunch act as a catalyst between the person asking the favour and the people that are willing to help. Awesome.

Last week they arranged school fees and school uniforms for one particular kid to continue his schooling right up to graduation. School fees, uniforms and sports equipment. Calculate all that up. Thanks to Spar for sponsoring it, and continuing to sponsor it all.

This morning they arranged for a lady’s son, a mentally handicapped 28 year old, to get his one biggest wish, to ride on a fire truck.

I have no shame in telling you that I sobbed, and I’m sure that not one single person listening in this morning, whether getting ready at home or driving to work, had a dry eye. Just when you thought it was over Jeremy told his mom that next week her son has been invited to the Christmas party at the Ekhuruleni Fire Station, so he can experience the whole vibe.

Dude.

Catch the 94.7 Christmas Wishlist every week-night on MNET at 19:30 to see just what goes on every day. Amazing.

…you’re probably a cunt.

Which means:
* You have no right telling me which of my tatts are done well, and which aren’t, especially since you have none.
* Talking about shooting people, especially in the company of children, is not cool.
* You can and will not, ever, tell me how to braai boerie, I rock.

The Texas Ranger. Himself. In Joburg traffic.

I swear this guy had a Stars ‘n Stripes hanging from his rearview mirror. I couldn’t get a pic ‘cos I was scared of getting roundhouse kicked, of course.

Ever had a zerbit? Or given one? Of course you have. Some clever SA designers have gone and stolen the name and branded their kiddies clothing range with it.

Zerbit

Very clever, and rad clothes for kids too.

One of Missing Link’s policies is that any staff member can use the Toot-n-Scoot service any time at all, and the company will pay (you may or may not be surprised to hear that this has been in place for 2 years and I’ve had not one single taker – and 4 alcohol induced accidents *sigh*).

Last week on Biz Com I read about their new guerilla campaign, I thought it was very rad. Just a group of mingers in t-shirts hitting clubs full of the beautiful people.

Ah, yes, I’m sure I got jiggy with one or two swamp donkeys in my drinking days.

I don’t really miss that…!

Two years ago I got a written-off car for my birthday. Last year I worked all the way through and got no sleep. This year I think is gonna be a whole lot better, hell, it already has been. And as for the grey, I happen to like my Richard Gere look!

Happy (no-accidents-and-mad-deadlines) Birthday to me!

The ever-growing and popular YouTube, used by thousands of blogs and websites worldwide, is now facing a bit of competition.

Comcast Corp in Philadelphia has launched Ziddio, which is very much like YouTube, but they hold competitions and are apparently gonna be giving prizes in specific categories too. Sweet.

The friendly lady’s voice recording told me that on 16 January 2007 it’s going to be a legal requirement to dial the full 10-digit number when dialing landlines from landlines. Doesn’t bother me too much ‘cos I only use a cellphone and have to dial it anyway, but just think of all the poor grannies with landlines who now have to remember a whole 3 extra numbers.

Poor oldies.

My best mate Ian has been living in the US and UK for the past few years, he’s considering coming home though, but he’s concerned that South Africa has too much violent crime and too many road accidents i.e. not the best place to bring up a kid.

Me, I think he’s just being silly…!

HIV/AIDSI saw this piece of weirdness the other day. All I can say is that if you’re paying, not just ‘too much’ but at all for HIV/AIDS, you’re getting ripped, bud.

NOT. AT. ALL.

My cellphone service provider was Smartcom, so when I had contract queries or needed additions or upgrades, I phoned them. As of today, they are owned by that fucking meerkat. So not only do I have to wait years and years for an answer on techie stuff, but a simple query or change to my contract fucks my day up now too.

Chuffed? Absolutely not. Vodacom, get more customer care consultants, ‘cos I’m in need of some attention. And if you think the rave version of a Backstreet Boys song beats Mick Hucknall as hold music, I’d say they’re about on a par on the “Songs you’d play to torture young children” list.

PS. I typed this post while on hold to 111, I would’ve been sorted before I finished typing if I was dealing with Smartcom.
