but I'd kinda hoped the Zim situation might have untangled itself by now.
No such dang luck.
Uncle Bob Mugabe (aka Ebagum) continues his insane tirade against the gay colonialists and Aunty Grace "Many Funerals" Mirafu keeps digging graves for all her many pairs of designer shoes.
1. In the mean time, a pregnant man gave birth to a bonny baby girrrl on Sunday 29 June. Thomas Beatie, 34, is both a Proud Dad and a Beaming Mother, the best of both worlds perhaps? And his/her daughter? “She’s really cute, really pretty,” a source told ABC News.
2. And today (Tues 8 July) it was confirmed that Simon Mann will prolly spend the rest of his life behind bars for plotting to overthrow the tinpot government of Equatorial Guinea
3. In latest news from the ongoing G8 Summit, it seems Africa's current Class of 2008 Leaders continue to fiddle while Harare burns.
According to The Financial Times:
'Leaders from the developed world and Africa yesterday failed to agree on how to deal with the crisis in Zimbabwe, which overshadowed a meeting between the Group of Eight [G8] and seven African heads of state Appearing at a joint news conference with President George W Bush, Jakaya Kikwete, president of Tanzania and chairman of the African Union, said: "The only area where we may differ is on the way forward."'
Somehow that foolishly, fandangled frase gets to me:The only area where we may differ is on the way forward
In other words, when it comes to African Quiet Diplomacy,
we simply don't know how to go forward ...
Or in other words, you might as well fuck me sideways
