Ron’s Thoughts …

I was born in 1939

The 2′nd world war had just started when Western nations decided to fight against Hitlers despotic ways.

Many millions of people died in their fight for “freedom”

Since then we have had “The Cold War,” Korea, Vietnam, Afganistan, Israel, Iraq, et al.

At the present time we have Zimbabwe with this madman Mugabe acting like another Hitler.

Will anyone, and I mean especially Mbeki, do anything ?

“Young Gun” Julius Malema says that the youth will “kill” opponents of Jacob Zuma.

Zuma, on the same platform a minute later, does not knock him down, he mealie mouthes about upholding the constitution.

What a bunch of opportunists.

Mbeki is off this evening to talk with Mugabe.

Too late you bloody idiot, the country is already up in flames.

South Africa has already been overrun by millions of Zimbabwians, ( yes I mean millions )

Please Mandela, I know that you are already 80-plus years old, but, we need you.

Your successors are screwing up our beloved country.

The rugby Springboks beat Wales today.

The soccer Bafana Bafana beat Equatorial Guinea today.

Well done “boytjies,”  (good South African word.)

The teacher said the boy is stupid.

The teacher, said the boy, is stupid.

Who is actually stupid ?

A marvellous language with so many nuances.
