CROSSING THE LINE...

(begun Wednesday 21st July at 5.45am..)

Quick Quiz time.... Who's Head of your Station and how long have they held that position?  Time to find out dudes, for I very much doubt that Sydenham SAPS is the only Station so heavily involved in the Big Brother operations...
The old man had called last night and during the conversation he'd mentioned that Westville had a recently appointed new Station Commander... He'd said that Ellen Emmanuel is a lovely person, which is good to hear...
What's even better IMHO, is the sudden increase in women now being entrusted to handle this demanding role...

Nathie Mthethwa is clearly a new-age man and doesn't hold with women being restricted to the kitchen and nursery...*grins and applauds...
What was her previous posting?  Is she a local girl?  From the Zone originally?  *just curious...
If it weren't for the Big Brother Project now colouring every aspect of life, I would have shrugged it off as a pleasant coincidence.. Hard-working and well-deserving of their promotions....

Unlike the throngs of armchair psychiatrists that people the local interwebz, I can't begin to fathom the thinking behind this careful move, but you can rest assured there's good reason for it...*beams..
Was Nayager's massive foul-up considered when making these choices?  Did he demonstrate clearly what a bad idea it had been to allow the Station Commander himself/herself to be personally involved in the running of the Information Theft Scheme?
Will the general public be less likely to consider a female capable of corruption in any form?  Considered less likely to enjoy eavesdropping on the local's private lives via the Big Brother technology, now rigged up at so many Stations?  It works for me, I tell you... *grins...

Course it's too late for Sydenham station, as it's common knowledge who's really running the show up there, and there are many now aware that he's as crooked as a bent nail, aren't there Crumb?  *teeth... I'll happily buy the pretty picture Captain Soobrathi paints for us, but only AFTER you're locked up, along with Nayager and Balliram....*snorts...
It's too late for you to slither out of the spotlight and hide, dewd... Targeting our Vice Chair was as bad an idea as volunteering to head the operation run at Siripath Field back in 2008... Dirt sticks hey, and I should know... *cackles... You simply can't make the proverbial silk purse out of a sow's ear, and Soobrathi is so far ahead of you it's a joke...
Sure, he shares the same goals and is forced to answer to the Druglord and promote the Privacy Invasion...
The difference is that he looks and acts like a good policeman should... A skill that's eluded you all along...

The Project Authors can arrange for as many carefully decorative changes to the ranks as they like, including the return of the Good Superintendent, but until Laz and Balliram and their one-time Mentor are removed from the picture, it's a no-go...
No amount of camouflage will do, and I shall continue to voice my misgivings to anyone who will listen, until the rot is at least visibly removed...
I've a fairly simple means of testing this... When our lights and appliances finally behave, and when our computer runs as it should, when our tap water runs clear every day, and my cellphones stop switching themselves off as the signal is suddenly cut, when...eh! You get the picture...

It's not too much to ask that our Network Admin is revealed on at least the local interwebz for the con artist that he is and always has been...
Yesterday I scoffed at the idea that Balliram is dangerous, but of course in retrospect he is.. His grossly inflated ego, combined with his instability, should make him the least likely candidate to be handling powerlines and masts IN THE WORLD!  This hasn't been the case, and he continues to invade our home as much as he ever did...*shrugs...
*I do believe there's a touch of panic in the camp right now as I type here in blogger....I'd only just started and the phone rang.  A call from the sterling Captain Soobrathi, which sadly I could barely follow as I was choking with laughter.... It was a time-waster for some reason and I can only guess that while they work on our Network Admin's electrics next door someone else will have to hook up to our system to follow my blogging? *
Admittedly the TV no longer makes the roaring snowing noise at switch-on and I seldom get the Error 718's at startup on the PC.   OTOH I can't recall when our computer has ever run this badly, and I doubt that the problems with SEACOM have anything at all to do with it..*winks.. Balliram is an opportunistic crook and if he would have you believe this is the reason for google's latest odd behaviour and the lurching staggering of pages opening, its a FAIL... *mutters....

LATER at 7.00am

Does the advanced technology now allow for the equivalent of a mass hostile take-over to be achieved?  Is this in fact the very premise that the Big Brother Project is based on?  Though I can confidently say I'm worthier than most, I guess such as the Scrabble Player is as much a prisoner of our Network Admin. as I am, though it's doubtful he'll be the recipient of the cowardly attacks we endure, unless he is considered to have crossed the line.. A line that's judged by the seriously disturbed Nayager and his 'special' friend, Colin P. Balliram FFS....*eyeroll..

LATER at 9.55am..

Busy, busy, busy.... I took the dogs food up just after 8.30am and stood chatting to B.Snr. at the gates as usual... The Creep already had a visitor parked alongside his car HERE...
B.Snr. told me that Khaled's tenant down at No. 2 was broken into on Friday at about 5.00pm while the house stood empty.. That apparently the tenant's son is away in Johannesburg and the lady is living there for the moment, alone..
B,Snr. had no name or contact details for the unfortunate woman, so she has no-one nearby to turn to for help..
How many of the Wugger community wear headphones as they chat amongst themselves, and short of a bomb dropping outside their door, hear nothing but their compadres chatter on the LAN?  While the community spirit may be thriving out there on the local networks, out in the real world it's pretty darned pathetic...

The tenant at No. 2 should have B.Snr's telephone number and that of Sue the Book at the very least, and with this in mind I called Dilshaad before 9.30am to get the information... The line was dropped soon after I greeted her, but undaunted I called straight back...
As it's now gone 10.00am and I've not yet had the promised details via an sms, can I safely assume I've set the cat among the pigeons in some way?  *teeth..
My request is logical, and for no other reason than to give the tenant the opportunity to call for assistance from her nearest neighbours should she be targeted again... (B.Snr. says the SAPS were back again at No2  on Saturday night. Did the thieves return for a second helping?)

Naturally I wait for Khaled's decision with great interest... Have Sue the Book and my good friends at No. 4 been tarred with the same brush used on me?  Would Khaled rather his tenant didn't see for herself that B.Snr and his family would go out of their way to help her, should she need assistance?  Sies vir julle almal...

As we stood chatting at the gate, a hoodie strolled by aimlessly, this time wearing a black jacket with the obligatory backpack....
The clouds have cleared and I'm off outside to read for a bit... It was around 9.30am when Balliram and the driver of the grey bakkie appeared on the drive, and both appeared to leave in the Creep's car shortly afterwards... Up to Dodge?  *interested... He chirruped his return at about 10.25am...

LATER at 11.10am

Some twenty minutes ago No. 2's house alarm went off.. More than likely due to a spike sent from the Mischief Maker at No. 6...*yawns...
Bernie's Missus has just called to say her daughter was mugged at the bustop up the road at 6.30am this morning.. You lot having fun there Balliram?  Seriously?  *vomits..
The simple refusal by Khaled to pass on his tenant's name and cell number could backfire IMO... What possible valid reason could be given for this?
Is there a last ditch attempt being made to persuade you there are NO beams or cameras saturating the area? You bet there is...

From the minute Nayager shot his mouth off in a rage at that Motherbody Meeting, the Damage Control Team has had to work overtime.. *grins.. To admit to the existence of these devices, would open up a can of worms of gigantic proportions, would it not? *winks...
Have I failed you yet?  Has everything I've said not come to pass?  Your call..... *shrugs..

LATER at 12.35pm

I've taken pictures before of THIS tatty box that lies on Balliram's garage roof, with it's cabling lying about haphazardly...  The little grey-haired man that drives THIS bakkie is an electrician I guess... Look, HERE he is on the garage roof, and check out all the new cabling and stuff...
A new or refurbished box even?
Will the repairs solve Balliram's ongoing problems with his gates once and for all, or is the work being done for another reason altogether?  Whatever, I'm sure the Pensioners will find out sooner or later whether the changes will affect them or not..*winks...

Even as I stood happily clicking away, el Monstro picked me up on his cameras, and within a short while my right thumb and forefinger began to go numb as he sent over what he could to scramble my camera... Too late Mate!   Will Johan Booysens add the destruction already caused, to the list of charges?  *makes a note to ask.... A short while afterwards both the electrician and his smart bakkie had disappeared...*laughing..

Peace julle..
