Almost the weekend

Woot, my camera got here early, I had it in my grubby little paws by 11am, sweet! I've played around a little bit but I'm going to have to charge the battery fully before actually testing it properly.

After lunch I got to meet Buster. Buster is a honey badger that was found after extensive flooding in Hiedelburg towards the end of December last year, at the time it was about 7 days old and almost hairless. The people who found him thought he was a puppy and took him to the SPCA. He has ended up at the Arends Hoogte rehabilitation centre where our company has adopted him to tie in with our badger free honey program. About six months later they were able to finally sex buster and discovered the "he" was actually a she!

I must say this is one of the coolest things I've ever done at work. The Afrikaans name for honey badger is "ratel" and you can definitely see the resemblance between the beast and the armoured vehicle when she was running around the auditorium. Although she apparently can display a really violent temperament she was really cute and cuddly today and just wanted to check everything out and generally be fondled by the audience. Afterwards five people got their pictures taken with her. It was really great. Buy badger friendly honey!!! Beware of retailers that do not protect these animals, they are almost endangered.

Some commentary on news:

A zulu news reader for the SABC has died of breast cancer. That's very sad you say but why are you commenting? Well here's the reason: the press release was from the ANC. To quote:

"The ANC will always remember Sokhulu from the time when she was a teacher at a school in Umlazi, where she distinguished herself as a dedicated daughter of the soil," the party said in a statement.

I thought we were supposed to have an independent media? This "The Party" shit smacks of communism. Next thing you know I'm going to have to run my blog postings past the political officer to make sure nothing puts "Mother Azania" in a bad light. I suppose while they control the stupid masses by keeping them stupid this kind of crap will continue to happen.

In other news: Stupid fucker Donovan Moodley, who cold bloodedly kidnapped and murdered a university student wants a reduced sentence because he is a first time offender. When I read this my mouth just dropped open for like 20 min. What a stupid fucker!

Here is a little quote from the fuck wad:

"The forensic evidence that the court took as fact is based on our current understanding of the evidence explained. History has proven over and over again how these facts are changed. In the absence of an eyewitness to disprove my admission, my version should be valued correctly"

In other words: "meh meh meh ... I'm a dirty, cold blooded killing tramp". Facts don't change you wanker, facts are facts, speculation changes based on new evidence (or facts if you will). Also the you don't have an eye witness to prove that I wasn't lying thing doesn't hold because forensics have proven you where. And oh, by the way, eye witnesses are notorious for being wrong while forensic evidence pretty much quite far advanced, oh yes you also admitted to kidnapping, extortion and taking a poor innocent young woman into the veld, ordering her to strip naked and shooting her. And you want a lighter sentence??!!?? In my view your deserve nothing less than being tied down naked while starving honey badger gnaw on your nuts! The only reason I'm not actually making a plan to have this done to you is that I think it would be cruel to the animals.
