I just saw in the Citizen on the front page an article about Lolly Jackson, owner of Teazers, and how he wants to go to Church because he has had bad luck, including his house burning down...my word, the guy must be stupid! It's like: "Hey God, I know I am bad, but here is an hour a week, and while we are at it, some money...can we just forget about the whole thing? Make my bad luck go away..."
Regarding his attitude towards his business, seems like he is trying to follow in the footsteps of Hooters, who calls themselves the "Family Restaurant". He refuses to advertise on tv, because they put him in the late night slot with all the sexual content, and he does not want to associate his business with scummy sex movies and sex advertising...
This guy really came from the bottom of the gene pool when rational thinking is involved...then again, all round probably...anybody can sell naked women, it does not require brains...

Taken from News24:
A South African airliner aborted a flight from Cape Town to Johannesburg on Friday after a "verbal threat" from two passengers, an airline official said.
A spokesperson for Kulula.com, a local low-cost airline operated by Comair, a franchised partner of British Airways, said the captain followed standard procedure and returned the aircraft to Cape Town airport.
"At no time were any of the passengers or crew in danger," said spokesperson Glenda Zvenyika.
Zvenyika said the "unknown verbal threat" was made less than 30 minutes into the flight of MN120 taking off from Cape Town for the two-hour flight to Johannesburg.
Police and emergency services surrounded the plane, carrying 151 passengers and six crew, immediately after it landed and was parked at an isolated section of the airport.
All passengers were later escorted off the plane into waiting buses and taken back to the airport terminal.
Police spokesperson Billy Jones said two South Africans were taken in for questioning to determine whether criminal charges would be filed.
Officials said Cape Town airport was functioning normally.

Now then, what type of cretin (or cretins) could be so bloody stupid?!
I really, really feel for the passengers, crew members and families/relatives that were affected by these twats, and the amount of inconvenience, expense etc caused by them as well. My blood boils when I hear things like this.
I hope the powers that be 'throw the book' at them, if they are indeed found guilty.

Our capacity for stupidity will never cease to amaze me! The chances are that it was something really stupid that was said...
Remember the Arch's son, Trevor? If memory serves he got sent to the slammer a few years ago for costing SAA a few shekels by forcing a flight to be grounded after making a bomb threat in Wanqa's backyard... and eventually he got the TRC to pardon him...

After a whole day spent chasing information on the "hijacking" incident at Cape Town International Airport...I went back to Long Street and chilled with a couple of friends atop a roof overlooking Long Street while sipping cocktails and watching the sun set over a beautiful city.

So what did you guys do this evening? I ended up at Menlyn playing ten pin bowling. It was okay, other than the balls being greasy. It was rather disgusting. I mean, Menlyn is the biggest shopping centre in Pta, and surely at 34 bucks a person they can afford to wash the jolly balls. After that we went to a friends house to watch national treasure. Then a beer or two at news cafe. Not an entirely exciting evening, but it was good.
