Ever since I saw the Susan Boyle video on Youtube last week , I cannot stop watching the video clip at least once a day. It gives me inspiration and is a reminder of how we humans often make the wrong perceptions on people based on a physical and material basis.{tweetme}

 Here is an extract from the Susan Boyle - Wikipedia page

Who is Susan Boyle ? For those of you that have not yet heard of her here is a short extract from wikipedia.

Can you believe this "companies" stats , Incredible - Shocking

Posted by mediawatch in South Africa , Scary Store Stories , DA , COPE , ANC

mediawatch

Got this in the mail the other day and wonder if it's accurate. I heard and read of incidents of crime, corruption etc by Parliamentary offcials, but this is crazy.

 

Can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than 500 employees and has the following statistics:

 
29 have been accused of spousal abuse
 7 have been arrested for fraud
 19 have been accused of writing bad cheques
 117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses
 3 have done time for assault
 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit
 14 have been arrested on drug-related charges
 8 have been arrested for shoplifting
 21 are currently defendants in lawsuits
 84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year

 
373 in total or approximately 70%
 Can you guess which organization this is?

3045 REASONS NOT TO VOTE FOR THE ANC - I don't think so ...

Posted by eyespy in Untagged 

eyespy

I can across this email recently and post it verbatim here for reference purposes. It obvious that it's put together by some one that is racist, and not by someone that is concerned with fighting corruption, crime etc.

 

I am amazed that the author is even living in Africa and is against multiculturism , he must be the biggest joke since George Bush. Africa is for all people that call themselves African's , not a few racist minority groups.

The NPA - Not the DA's darling anymore ...

Posted by mybuzz in Untagged 

mybuzz

Something about the recent state of affairs between the Democratic Alliance ( DA ) and the NPA made me think of this Eddy Grant Song, If you are not familiar with the lyrics, here you go, 


I don't wanna dance
Dance with you baby no more
I'll never do something to hurt you, though
Oh but the feeling is bad
The feeling is bad

I love your personality
But I don't want our love on show
Sometimes I think it's insanity
Girl the way you go

With all of the guys on the corner
Oh baby, you're the latest trick
Oh, you seem to have their number
Look they're dancing still

I don't wanna dance
Dance with you baby no more
I'll never do something to hurt you, though
Oh but the feeling is bad
The feeling is bad

Solo

Baby now the party's over
For us, so I'll be on my way
Now that the things which moved me
Are standing still

I know it's only superstition
Baby, but I won't look back
Even though I feel your music
Baby that is that

I don't wanna dance
Dance with you baby no more
I'll never do something to hurt you, though
Oh but the feeling is bad
The feeling is bad

Don't wanna dance
Don't wanna dance
Don't wanna dance
Don't wanna dance
Don't wanna dance
Don't wanna dance
Don't wanna dance

I don't wanna dance
Dance with you baby no more
I'll never do something to hurt you, though
Oh but the feeling is bad
The feeling is bad
