It was the then Victor Verster prison (now Drakenstein) in Paarl; it wasn't the Chief Warder's house; and it was only for a small proportion of his imprisonment--the rest (19 years) was spent on Robben Island, working in conditions that permanently damaged his eyes, and, incidentally, on a diet to which he attributed his longevity. The prison in which he spent a very brief time (weeks) was Pollsmoor.

Everyone should stand in meetings--no chairs provided. That way, no one will want to hang around, so the meetings will be far shorter than they would otherwise be.

No, 'Kwanza' means 'post' and 'post' means first. Both are Swahili.

I tried that using a real looking name, they just removed my account the next day, Facebook are run by scumbags so I didn't bother re-registering. I'd rather have my privacy thank you.

My dog has had a facebook account for ages and, yes, he lied about his age.

This statement is absurd. Do you think all programmers are identical and have identical skillsets?

Having to do some work? Shocking! CLIs are actually a faster and more productive method of working once they have been mastered.

Oh, good grief! Or are you trying to be funny? And the rest of your post is also worthless drivel.

Cold turkey, whether cigarettes or caffiene is murderously stupid.

Nonsense. As a smoker for 41 years, I tried almost every conceivable method of quitting: slow withdrawal, NRT, other drugs. Nothing worked. Then I read Allen Carr's book in which he recommends cold turkey as the most effective method of quitting, so I tried that. I had a few days of quite severe discomfort, followed by a week or two of intermittent cravings, but I was able to get through that, and I have now been smoke free for three years. It's a question of mental preparation.
As for coffee addiction, I don't have it. I drink 4 cups of Italian roast every working day because I like the taste and the ritual. On weekends or vacations I don't drink it at all, and have never experienced any discomfort. I suppose it's a matter of individual metabolic idiosyncracy.

Most of the footage we see follows the ball. But every so often, when there's a break in play, the camera zooms in on chicks in the crowd with great hooters, or players picking their noses, spitting or scratching their crotches. Could these folk not get something for their extra performances?

I don't understand the connection between the Freedom of Information bill and nuclear weapons; either it's a non seqitur or too subtle for me. This bill may have passed through parliament, but it will encounter a rocky road when it comes up against the inevitable constitutional challenges (Moegoeng Moegoeng notwithstanding). South Africa also has a freedom of speech clause which this law attempts to trump. In any case, if the ANC government continue to behave with the arrogance and stupidity they have been displaying of late, they will be out of government at the next election, and a DA-led coalition will lose no time repealing this Act.

In the third world bandwidth is expensive. Downloading and installing all the packages I use would cost more than a retail version of MS Office.

And they come with a coloring-in book instead of a user manual. The arseholes who drive these things NEVER turn off their fog lamps.

I worked for a company that did this. The tea lady got so rat-arsed she fell off the boat in the middle of the booze cruise.

Will their marketing department be first against the wall when the revolution comes?

It also says 'rotates' when it means 'orbits'. Not very good writing.

The SKA isn't all-or-nothing. It can start small with a few receivers (South Africa already have the MeerKAT array) and scale when funding is available. It doesn't really matter if there are delays--good science can still be done with half an SKA.

No your honor. Clearly, we were targeting American's because our website only uses American spelling and grammar. And you're all wankers.

Even in American the plural of American is Americans, not American's.
