Well I Couldn't Believe it! On my way into work this morning I heard on the radio that one of the Crazy Monkey guys had been shot. Brett Goldin, the little guy, and a friend were shot, execution style, after a party on Sunday Morning.
It's kinda weird because over the weekend I caught a re-run of a local sitcom that he guest stared in. I watched it lateish on Saturday night, probably hours before this guy, who is younger than me, was brutally murdered.
It seems the cops have suspects in custody, three of them will be appearing in court today. But the worst that is going to happen is that they'll be convicted and get like ten year prison terms.
I know that prison is not a pleasant place, but it's too good for these guys, the punishment should fit the crime damn it. Now a lot of people out there would be screaming to bring back the death penalty, not me. I'm not a big proponent of the death penalty, but only because there is so much worse that we can do. Hard fucking labor for the rest of their natural lives or maybe non-consensual organ donation. Make these people work in a sewage farm, or mine gold in the unstable shafts. Let them work with asbestos and radioactive materials. Send them on dangerous deep sea fishing voyages and walk giant treadmills to generate electricity. In the end they should truly pay for what they have done, not just live in a relative country club like atmosphere. Make them suffer while being forced to perform a useful function for society
IN THE NEWS
Well It seems that this is big news in the UK, but Obs Tattoo has been doing it for ages. Yet another example of a trend being set in Obs.
Iran and the states iran seem to be going to war. Nothing will stop bush if he decides he wants something. Then again talk about having 55,000 suicide bombers ready to go and you may just be getting yourself into some hot water.
So, what'll be new in sex toys over the next ten years? Julia Heiman, director of the Kinsey Institute claims virtual sex experience will be a reality by 2016. Yes folks we're looking into the field of teledildonics. One purveyor of such goods claims that his customers are simply "blown away".
It's good to know that Freak Shows are alive and well. The worlds tallest man and the worlds second shortest man are apparently major attractions at an Afro-Asian Trade Exhibition held at the prestigious Pietermaritzburg Royal Show Grounds.
While this dude undoubtedly has a few screws loose I don't see the big problem. A British ex-paratrooper is trying to walk form the South America to England in an unbroken trip, the only problem is that he didn't get his passport stamped when entering Russia across the ice form Aslaska. I mean seriously?

BLOW BUSH
Well, I thought I'd tie into the contest on this one.
MOVIE I WATCHED RECENTLY
I watched a couple of movies over the weekend but I'm going to spread them out a little. The first one I watched was "Levity". With Big Name actors like Billy Bob Thornton, Morgan Freeman, Holly Hunter and Kirsten Dunst what do you expect? Brilliance. Some people might find it slow, and almost predictable, but it does as good a job as possible to avoid these. Ultimately the main theme is Redemption but I don't want to give too much away. This movie has everything you could ask for in a drama, except gratuitous nudity. The story progression and character development is great. If you enjoy a good drama you will not be disappointed by 'Levity'.
Well that's it folks, don't forget about poker this weekend.

Does anyone really care about Brett Goldin apart from his friends in the media. Funny thing is that on the same weekend that him and his friend were hijacked...four black men were killed in Nyanga not far from where Goldin and Bloom were killed...I saw a small news report but there weren't any calls for a return to the death penalty for their killers. Makes you think doesn't it?
You make an interesting point. I'll think about it and respond in todays blog entry. It's a topic that deserves analysis.
thanks for stopping by
