I now have come to the conclusion that people in the Three Rivers area are all sterile. Non of the retail shops have metirnaty clothing. Walk Woolworths, Edgars, Mr. Price, Miladys, Donna Clare, Jet and AcKermans and baby clothes galore, but I presume babies come by stork.

Motorola Technical supprt lies about the features not listed in the specifications and has locked the GPL Linux Kernel by signing it with a RSA security key. Thus making Free software/Open Source proprietary software.

On Various forums and blogs it is out that the milestone is crippleware and what Motorola has done with the milestone. This marketing has done seems to work in the findings of the Inquirer.

Motorola gets a good kicking in the global market – The Inquirer.

When we move on with our lives we recognise time as a variable that should be incorporated into our equation for life. Like the prelude and requiem of time we have our own. In between live happens and to some it does happen in capitals. When confronted with a event that shapes us, time moves on, we move on. The past behind us, the future in front of us.

We move forward step by step, living to the future. Review the past take the good, shape it to something useful and bury the bad. Improve on your being becoming more than your being. Confront your hurt, your fear, your pain breaking down the walls your self-preservation built. Be mindful and watchful for your insecurities for they are the things that go bump in the night that feed your fears.

We live, but once. Cherrish the things that give you joy, for they are the nice things you would want to do when you grow old. Surround yourself with people that love you every second of every day, for they love who you are not what you are.

Borrowed from a facebook posting that gave me this whole train of though.

Question: in order to move forward, you need to forget the past and let go of everything – but why do I feel like I've left myself behind?

Answer: sometimes you have to leave a bit yourself behind. Just remember to take your compass and southern cross or northern star with for they will show you, your true north. It is but the changing of the tides, but they tear at the flesh of rock.

Mmm… cannot remember where I found this info. I used it to dubble check an ID number a while back.

An identity number consists of 13 digits, which are compiled as follows:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13

(a) the first six digits represent the date of birth of the person as follows:
Digits 1 and 2, the year of birth; digits 3 and 4, the month of birth; and digits 5 and 6, the day of birth;

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13

(b) digit 7 indicates the gender of the person, namely the serial numbers 0 to 4, which are allocated to female persons, and serial numbers 5 to 9, which are allocated to male persons;

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13

(c) digits 8 to 10, inclusive, represent a serial number;

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13

(d) digit 11 represents the citizenship of the person as follows:
SA Citizen – 0 Non SA Citizen 1

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13

(e) digit 12 represents the index number 8 under which the person’s particulars have been included in the population register; and

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13

(f) digit 13 is a control figure determined by the computer.

Now I have googled and I know there is a reference to the bible and when the nice though of lions and lambs, but just as a thought what happens if you pick on someone and continuously bully that person until, until the day, that day that the person stands up and says enough is enough. Does that person not also become a lion

Vaal rivier

Suikerbos rylaan onder bietjie, bietjie water!

Dis mos waarvoor mens ń Jeep gebruik

Dis moes wat mens met ń Jeep doen. Wens my Jeep reg dan het ek sulke streke aangevang, net daardie stuk skrap van my is alweer stukkend en lyk vir my dis ń party trick net om die DCSA/Merc scrap uit die werkwinkel te hou. Maar kan seker nie beter van Merc/DCSA verwag nie.

Kinders wat op die gras speel by Vosloo Park

Hehe lekker speel die kinder op die gras. Daar is gras onder die water by Vosloo park Die Vaal oorspoel die eenkant terwyl die Klip die ander kant van die parkie oorspoel.

Uhm Metro polisie het van iemand vergeet

Mmm Renault tussen die Vaal en Klip op hoë grond op suikerbos vas gekeer. Nadat Metro polisie die ander paaie toe versper het.

was considered unsolicited bulk e-mail (UBE).

Our internal reference code for your message is ______________________

The message carried your return address, so it was either a genuine mail from you, or a sender address was faked and your e-mail address abused by third party, in which case we apologize for undesired notification.

We do try to minimize backscatter for more prominent cases of UBE and for infected mail, but for less obvious cases of UBE some balance between losing genuine mail and sending undesired backscatter is sought, and there can be some collateral damage on both sides.

According to a ‘Received:’ trace, the message originated at: [41.208.xx.xxx],
41-208-xx-xxx.mtn.co.za ([41.208.xx.xxx] helo=”xxxxx)

Colateral Damage se Mxxxxxxx!

I wonder though having had a couple of problems with corporate email and gmail, if SA techies will every wakeup to the new standards of email. Since the amount of backsactter is hideous and the amount of legit mail sent through poorly configure smtp servers causing spam faults due to apparent forged mail addresses are just as hideous.

Joke is people pay for that kind of service.

where you are,

with what you have!

Sou ek jou ontmoet het?
Sou jy my hart verkook het?
en sou ons doen
wat ons nou doen?

en my lewe,
gebroke, verniel,
teveel vrae,
teveel liefde verbrand,

eendag word gesê,
het ek dit nou gevind,
tussen ons hande, terwyl hulle speel,
het ek my liefde gevind?

of is dit maar net ‘n verbygaan,
van vreemdelinge?
en verstaan sy my woorde:
lief vir jou.

gebroke beloftes,
gebroke mense,
gebroke drome,
liefde,
waar ons nou staan,
skuif ons sterre,
verf ons in die hemele.

by jou wil ek wees,
langs jou wil ek lê,
jy het my weer laat glo
in liefde,
jy gee my ‘n wêreld
om in te glo,

woorde word gepraat,
wense word gebreek,
drome verdwyn,
altyd teveel wat ongesê bly,
maar by jou kan ek weer lewe,
by jou kan ek weer droom,
vir jou kan ek lief hê,

by jou wil ek wees,
langs jou wil ek lê,
jy het my weer laat glo
in liefde,
jy gee my ‘n wêreld
om in te glo,

jou liefde het my siel,
weer aan die brand gesteek.
