I agree. I am tired of reading about accidents where young people are involved and drunk. So if they get killed, so what? They probably deserved it. Well, my issue is that it is usually not the guilty party who gets as badly hurt as the others, so if they drive like a donkey, punish them. I take my hat off to those cops, especially because those kids drove like fools. Yesterday everyone here seemed to do the same. It was crazy! In 9km we were in 3 potential situations that could have caused accidents. The one driver did 3 of the most stupid things i have seen anyone do in a car in less than 200m, almost hitting us on the first stupid thing right after they ran a red light.
So, its a tie. I wish i cared. I feel so left out everytime the bulls play. Why is it so important? It is sport.

At the same time it must be said that the SA police abuse their power. I have been intimidated and threatened with arrest in broad daylight, dead sober. Why? Because, when verbally harrassed, i let the dude know that i am acquainted with my rights. Is...

that being cheeky or assertive? I think it's damn cheeky of a cop to waltz up to me and make unreasonable demands. Esp when it's clear that he's just looking for a reason to bother a girl. Sorry but i'd prefer them to avoid using their moral discretion!!

@ Kryptik,
Hope the rest of the day's proceedings, including your bestman's speech (which I'm sure you would've thrived on preparing...I can half imagine a twinkle in your eye..)
I'm sure conjuring fond memories of the groom would've provided ample sustenance for you to spin an intriguing bestman's speech, ably assisted and amplified by your creative flair.
BTW, damn nice pic of those vintage Bentleys...I'd hate to guess what they are collectively worth...

Never thought I'd do it but I bought my first Ipod today.

Whatever pisses off the rugby fans pleases me:) lol! I cant wait to read the papers, and hear all the chaps complain. Always wanting to be pleased by sport. Sport in my opinion is just something people use to get excited about just to escape the fact that their lives are miserable. Okay, maybe not exclusively, but people want to be entertained, pleased. So if you look at it in that way, they are finding meaning in something absolutely useless:) but in the same breath, it brings people together in happy beating each other up:) so there is my silly opinion, Francois, the critic of life:)
@ psycho, and everyone else, talking about the cops, not even half an hour ago, outside as usual, my friend Handsome is here, his car parked outside our yard, me sitting on the stoep, watching battlestar galactica and handsome standing and leaning on his car, talking to his beloved, when the cops pull up. At first the pass, stop, torch on, and back up up to handsomes car, then they pull into our yard...

At that point i get up and approach the car. Handsome has had some brutal run-ins with the police before being black and having a car. So they ask me who he is, and who's car it is, so i explained it nicely. Then they left with their exhaust between their wheels. Just checking they say. Now if anyone has a chance to look for a video on youtube look for 'how not to get your ass kicked by the police' by chris rock. Classic video:) One of the points he makes is the following-get a white friend:) a white friend knows how to be polite to the police, and will make sure that you dont end up with a cap up your ass:) So psycho, get a white friend, he he he!

What?!! Dont black people drive in pretoria? As a matter of principle you really should have tuned them for disturbing the peace in your neighbourhood with their obnoxious racism.
It's precisely because i and many of my friends are white that the...

police take issue. And in a town like Stellenbosch i dont really blame them for targetting white people... I just think the huge head many of them get is very wrong.

Racist Cops will always be there,no matter what.And it's everywhere around the globe.Did you know that Marlon Wayans of the Wayans Brothers was arrested for stealing his own car?Why,because he's a black dude driving an xpensive car!I don't think it will ever change.
Hey Brix which iPod did you buy?
