ROCKS IN MY HEART.......

(begun Friday..)

The pen hangs in the air as I wait for the right words to emerge from my snot-filled head.... and wait....and wait....

A rare head-cold has had me barking day and night,and has drastically curtailed my puffing pleasure...*cackles and coughs..

I owe you a couple of small corrections ja....

The black 4x4 NUR 24003 is merely another of the company cars Missus C gets to drive ... lucky girl....*grins..

At some point yesterday, I was looking out of my garage window, down at the work being done next door...there stood Mon Capitano,and I had the opportunity to see that my use of the word balding in my previous blog, was spurious and bitchy,as he seems to have a fairly decent head of hair for a guy his age....*cackles...

Otherwise? Time to start keeping a log of the weirdness of my Thursdays out and about.... the fact that the two businesses I generally visit once a week seem to now suffer electrical problems on my visits? *keels over....

That ONLY his shop at Westville Mall had a blown circuit yesterday? *shrugs...

Both the Westville Mall and the Village Market already have the Big Brother Data-Theft system installed and each business can now easily be isolated and 'dealt' with as the Corrupt see fit...

So, a stricter note must be kept of dates and times and the type of problems that occur,if anything other than the ubiquitous 'coincidence' word is to be used....*grins...

I still struggle with the Westville lawyers wife who had no problem with Big Brother monitoring businesses for SARS purposes... Yes - her husband had done work for the Municipality - but what on earth happened to invasion of privacy? What gigantic carrot dazzled him to the point of selective amnesia? *falls over....

My next question would have to be how they persuaded the Councillors wife that they are NOT being audio monitored in their home? A mad scramble that had to be....*cackles...

So many lies and half-truths fly about this Project, that it will inevitably lead to some hilarious errors...*grins...

Our Controller has bragged so often about OUR everyday conversations, that it is simply too late to back-pedal and suggest that we are the only residents to be monitored....*cackles...

If I were a part of this Crooked Project, the Councillors home would have been among the first to be wired for sound... Why? Because I think there is a lot of interesting stuff happening there, and information is precisely what the Project is designed to collect....*grins...

She is a sharp cookie and hopefully will be the one to remind her family to be very careful what they SAY from now on... have paper and pens in every room and resort to writing down stuff that you think your monitors could use against you.... Extreme paranoia? You think? *shrieks.....

Bali has shown repeatedly what he can do with even the most banal of conversations.... the conversations monitored in a Councillors house however, would be worth a great deal more than just a few laughs....*grins...

If Telkom came in and rewired your landline and you have their wondrous white wireless boxes within sight, you ARE able to be audio monitored and thats a fact, believe it or not...*shrugs..

Our power supply hangs by a thread. I watched yesterday as the wekkers activated the electric block cutter causing our lights to dip repeatedly and our Masters rebellious Courser bakkie to sound her alarm....*cackles... a fragile setup indeed and there is a good chance that we will lose a great deal more than the R1200 damage Bali engineered/exacted from us last month... and this is not corruption because.......? *smiles...

When the red-eyed Allen Spence was first approached to set up the initial monitoring equipment in the Crescent back in 2004 (euphemistically titled "a highly-technical computerised Anti-theft device) did he not for one moment consider the illegalities? Unless he himself was in some sort of mid-life crisis, how is it that he visibly found such blatant criminal activities amusing?

Handing over the entire circuit to a layman to control, certainly affected residents other than ourselves so.....?

I would dearly love to know who it is that reassuringly pats the few who may have misgivings and insists that there will be no come-back? Selebi himself? Doubtful......

Allen Spence certainly knows his charming Project was the reason Basil was dropped like a stone twice during 2005...*shrugs... I guess as an Electrical Engineer, he finds this more interesting than appalling? There being no similar incident ever recorded, he simply refuses to accept liability? Way to go AL!!!! *cheers....

When the very first Big Brother discussions took place, who sat around the table?

The shifty Herr Doktor Sutcliffe? Selebi? Some beeg boys from both Telkom and Eskom? *vomits...

I'm betting Allen Spence was so enchanted with his own self-importance, that he pretty much lost the plot right then...*shrugs...

Some fascinating stuff to be found at www.myadsl.co.za last night.... Whether put there for my benefit or further confusion, I've no way of knowing....*cackles...

I remember being delighted way back, when I found that the erratic flashing light that used to live in Bali's garage, was something to do with a linksy and WiFi...*grins....

There are so many red-herrings deliberately being introduced to further muddy the waters, that my initial excitement at recognizing something, no longer lasts very long at all....*cackles...

Nonetheless the "Cheaper Fibre to the Home" thread in the BroadBand and IT News forum was very entertaining.... It would certainly explain this picture of a black and white sewage line marker driven into Bernie's verge up the road. And is probably to do with this picture of workers digging deeply across the Crescent to Godfreys verge.

Another sewage line marker appearing outside the Senior Boys Hostel across the valley....

It may explain why, when sitting out the front (previously blogged), I have several times had the overwhelming stench of raw sewage float up from Bali's servants quarters area.....*grins... At these times, there has been no-one at all down there... and he himself has either 'backwashed' his pool or left an outside tap pouring overnight shortly afterwards...*cackles...

If it is true that the Muni are using either the sewage or stormwater system to run FTTH then the Telkom Wimax boxes fit in perfectly...*beams..

It was a bonus to find the picture in General adsl Discussions of a DSLAM.... I blogged previously of stopping to take this picture of the Telkom wekkers and here is the finished item...*grins...

Sherwood and the Zone are OWNED by the Crookedest bunch of shysters ever imagined....*keels over...

For all the kindness of Yotch in starting the Fibre Through Sewers thread, the single most important aspect was not discussed.

The Power connection remains a total mystery to me.

Why is there such a Huge amount of electrical power involved in the Big Brother Project? That our circuit is connected to the huge overheads down the road and on the Freeway bridge is a given.

Is it necessary to tie this in with the Wimax somehow for total control? To those of you who still believe that the powercuts are due to an electricity shortage - Wake up FFS!!!

Do a bit of bloody monitoring yourselves...

Pick a spot near you where Telkom contractors are digging, and you will find that your Muni will be hovering about nearby, working on both the water system and the streetlights...it is ALL connected to the Big Brother Data-Theft Scheme and in our case, dangerous as Hell....*wild cackles...

The link given to the hilarious Whirlpool forum meant that I could at least grasp some of the discussion...*beams..

Now, if some kind soul could point me to a similar easy-to-follow discussion on why so much electrical power is involved, I would be eternally grateful....

Whilst these marvels may be simple concepts for you to grasp - my head Hurts!!!! *laughing...

Is the power necessary just to run the enormous aerials installed all over the valley and beyond?

(BTW, I did see a couple of amazing sodium based aerial lights over by Grindrod Place two nights ago...But not seen since... Low pressure se VOET!!!) *waves to Charlie Anderson and Jenny Adams....

I confess to being bitterly disappointed with my reaction to Captain Courageous most recent cruelty. Despite my best efforts, I allowed my horror to overwhelm me, though fully aware of the deliberate manipulation at the time...*shakes its head...

He will most certainly repeat this behaviour with minor variations in due course, and it will be blogged as always... I hope to be stronger on future occasions, but who knows....*shrugs...

A big team of Parks wekkers have moved in across under the gumtrees. More clearing for Line of Sight fosho, while maintenance will also be done to the hidden water runoff system below the Senior Boys Hostel....*grins...

A Pinetown SAPS Patrol van just drove by up the Crescent with Captain Chule's twin at the wheel...WTF??

The myadsl forum has lifted my spirits and again I plod inexorably along the path of knowledge to whatever weird fate awaits me...*grins...

Its a beautiful soft, cloudy day here in the Zone and I wish you could share it with me...a red-winged starling called briefly as it flew overhead..

I gather they are considered vermin in parts of the Cape Province?

Hard to believe when you line them up next to our own bullying, raucous, local mynahs....*shrugs...

Peace julle...
