South Africa

It is with sadness that I have to say that my mom have passed away two days ago. She had a problem with her hip and got operated on. She was immobile and were left to die of dehydration by the people that were supposed to care for her. They could not bother to give her water to drink? I am so angry and sad at the moment. I will be in SA in the next few days and someone is going to pay for this.

At the moment I do not have a glamourous lifestyle but is able to save about a 1000USD a month. I do not have management qualifications and if I return to SA will not nearly earn the same money I do now, but I'm tired of living in a foreign country and the hassle that goes with it. I soon have to make up my mind.

O.K if you are a widow or devorced I feel your struggle.

But I don't see why I should respect the rest because they put it on themselves.

I mean, governments permit tobacco smoking……..and smoke affects people around the smoker.......governments permit people to smoke themselves to death while they forbid us to impair our mental process by using dagga......they permit use of alcohol......drunken drivers cause fatal deliberate and non-deliberate accidents…......deep fried fast foods are killers…....but the governments allow them …..... what the governments over the world have done is to make drug lords richer......while users are being ripped off…... why such a hysteria around drugs…..

What do you think?

The Springboks were playing England in the RWC final, at half-time the
Springboks were 56-0 ahead, Brian Habana scoring eight tries.

The rest of the team decided to head for the pub instead of going out
for the second half, leaving Habana to face England on his own.

"No worries," Habana told them, "I'll join you later and tell you what
happened."

After the game Habana headed for the pub and told his team-mates the
final score: 95-3.

"What!!!!" said a furious John Smit, "How did you let them get three
points??!"

Habana replied apologetically, "I was sent off with 20 minutes to go."

Brian Ashton and Jake White both die and enter the Pearly Gates.

God takes Brian on a tour of heaven and ends up at a little two-bedroom
bungalow with a faded English rugby banner hanging from the front porch.
"This is your house, Brian," says God, "You're very lucky. Most people
don't get their own houses up here, you know."

Brian looks at the house, then turns around and looks at the huge mansion
on top of the hill. A massive, multi-storey affair with white marble
columns, balconies and attractive gardens, Springbok banners line both
sides of the footpath and a huge South African flag hangs between the
marble columns.

"Thanks for the house, God," says Brian "But let me ask you a question. How
come I get this little two-bedroom bungalow and Jake White gets a huge
mansion with all those marble columns and things?" God looks at him
seriously for a moment. "That's not Jake's house," God says. "That's my
house."

England rugby practice was delayed for two hours this afternoon after a player reported finding a white powdery substance on the practice ground.
Head coach Ashton immediately suspended practice while the police were called to investigate.
After a complete forensic search Scotland Yard determined that the white stuff which was unknown to the players was in fact the try line.
Practice was continued as police were happy the players were unlikely to encounter the substance again.

Just like 1995, the WHOLE country is behind our boys in green and gold…….. no matter what happens tomorrow, I’ll always hold the teams of 1995 and 2007 as my undoubted heroes………the men who made me proud to son of the soil………. son of Africa, child of Mzansi……these are the times that I feel blessed to have been born in this country and living at this time.………for 80 minutes on Saturday, October 20, 2007 I will forget about the crime and diseases that inflict my country……..my eyes will be fixed on nothing but glory that beckons……….I’m going to stay focussed for every second and every minute will decide my country’s fate……….for I know that all fifteen South Africans who are to walk onto that field need my undivided support………

MY BLOOD IS GREEN and
MY SOUL IS GOLD

It's about HIV and AIDS in South Africa. As you know, the statistics by World Health Organisation show that South Africa has got the highest HIV-related death rate in the world. Some of the factors that influence death rate from HIV infection is life style, public access to medical resources, leteracy, and commitment of government in combating the disease based on state economy. There are about 53 countries in Africa. Having the factors I've mentioned above in mind, what is it exactly that makes South Africans die so much of AIDS-related deseases? What is it that makes the death toll in South Africa much higher than in any other African country? Is it because other African countries afford medical accessibility more than we do in South Africa? Is it because their lifestyle is much more health-friendly than ours in South Africa? I'm confused, please help.
