EYESORE 2....
(begun Saturday 27th November at 4.15am...) 

* A string of silly little problems forced me to post the picture in the previous blog, on it’s own… no worries Master?*

On one of my visits to the loo last night, I actually went down the passage and drew the curtain in the lounge.. Yep, the window that looks right down the passage and which seems to set off a pesky ‘cricket’ the minute I leave the bedroom door.. *winks…
Course that doesn’t shut the little fella up, that’s lived for over a year down by our boundary wall and the mulberry tree.. I only have to stand up next to my bed to get him going excitedly… *grins…
I could of course, draw all the curtains at sunset, but why spoil the young Pervert’s fun?

I’m betting that just prior to judgement being given, Agliotti's Defense Counsel reminded him sotto voice to temper his smug delight for the audience and Press…  For his pains, Laurance Hodes SC was rewarded don Corleone style, with a kiss on both cheeks…*cackles…  Is Hodes a Gauteng version of our own brilliant Anand Nepaul?  Anyone know anything much about the bloke?  The spelling of his first name has me wondering whether it was a typo, or whether by some amazing coincidence he's a Zoneboy originally… (See The Mercury November 26th, Front page).
Our crooked Town Clerk, Sutcliffe, aptly shares the headlines with the grinning Gauteng druglord, though I doubt Mr. Sean Murphy’s efforts will meet with much success… That toothy little City Manager has eeled his way out of trouble more times than I care to remember during his reign, heavily backed as he is by our Head of Intelligence and the local Mob… *spits…

I read that the giant strangler-fig on the corner of St. Thomas and Ridge Road has been the latest victim (reported in the Press, at least) to be sacrificed in the name of the Privacy Invasion.  This time, apparently blatantly poisoned… (see Mercury 26th November Letters Page 15) It seems to be only the old fogeys who get hot under the collar when this happens.. Ancients, who probably don’t even know how to turn a computer on, and won't ever appreciate the joys of hanging out on their local WUG… I'm betting the local Area Network Admin just wishes the letter writer would FOAD…. *grins…

It's now 5am, and it promises to be a stinker.. The sound of a noisy pedestrian wending his way home, floats across from Sydenham, and I guess he managed to wake more than a few irate residents with his mournful cries.. In the climate of moral decay that permeates every corner of the land, he's fortunate that a property owner didn’t simply step outside and quieten him forever…
I must get on…

Sunday 28th November at 3.55am..
Our telly screen was blacked out, literally within seconds of me shutting down the PC and switching off the adaptor switch, last night.. A storm? Naa… It's generally speaking only the Channel we're watching that gets taken out, but I didn’t even bother to check, I was that awed by our Controller's timing.. Some habits are just too hard to break, Bali?  *beams..

The way I see it is, that if you're enjoying the benefits of your local WUG and the free uncapped bandwidth, then by all means make an effort to cut back on power usage… Trouble is, if you're among the Chosen, chances are that you’ve already obligingly added several helpful signal enhancers to your property..
At the last count, our Area Controller has, I think, twelve of these beauties plastered about his tiny home..(not that he activates them all at once).

Are all the Chosen aware that even when those lights are ostensibly switched off, many are still putting out a signal?  Does this apply only to the so-called light sensitive installations, and would this be the reason why the cops and your security companies constantly tout these lights in particular? You betcha!  *teeth…
Coming from a less-than-affluent background, I've always been fairly conscious of electricity wastage, but you'll forgive me if my hackles are raised right now… For it’s the mugs like the GW who are exhorted to cut back, while you and yours merrily festoon your property with additional power guzzlers… Sure they're for the most part energy-savers, but if they're the light-sensitive ones, they're running 24/7, and I doubt many of you were aware of that…
As far as you're concerned, the lights switch themselves off at dawn, and are dead till sunset.. NOT.

It’s the same with the water.  The authorities are smarmily insisting that water, like electricity, is being stolen, and they're right.   It's being stolen in horrifying volumes, and deliberately run off to facilitate the cabling that’s being run via the waterlines/storm water drains to your homes… We drove up Garbutt Road last Thursday, and there was a river running back down towards Harris Crescent from the driveway of the double-story that borders the bit of greenland, by what used to be the bowling green… *blinks…
You could actually see little waves as it rushed over the tarmac..*gags…  The GW casually said that it’s a regular occurrence from that particular home, and I beg you don’t mention the words pool and backwash at this point.

Why do you think the huge leak at the Foreman Road Settlement was ignored for over a month, and for all I know, it's still pouring out over there?  THIS property in Kings Avenue, Westville, had a river running back down the road as usual, last Thursday.  I find it pretty scary that so many of you MUST be aware of these deliberate runoffs and why they're so necessary, and yet you remain silent, as figures of authority like Macleod continue to trot out their blatant lies in the Press..

Yeah, I'm just the Bitter Old Bitch that’s had her computer usage curtailed to a laughable degree, in return for her endless yapping… Not one among you will ever attempt to sell ME the grand premise behind the Big Brother Operation, and wisely so….
For the price it's costing, it would have to be quite simply, unbelievably brilliant…
Streetlights everywhere, burning 24/7, great rivers of water runoff to release the pressure, cellphone masts going up within feet of your kid's classrooms, institutions housing the most vulnerable of our citizens, recruited as wireless base-stations, and these are the less dodgy means being employed to ultimately harness the population…

It's downhill from there, with the handing of power circuits to laymen who, in our case, answer directly to a well-known Druglord, the complicity of sections of our police at every station, and the ownership of so many of the judiciary…  Have you lost your senses completely?  Can you not step back and see where this is going?  Someone has to take the first brave step forward into the New Age, and it may as well be us? *sad.. Hunker down and concentrate on your own small world and it'll all be worth it in the end?

The wind is up outside and it’s a solid grey sky. I'm off to feed the birds..

LATER at 5.30am..

Did I forget to tell you that our charming and genial Director of Safety & Security arrived during the closing minutes of last Thursday’s Motherbody Meeting?  He made much of the – Days of Activism against the Abuse of Women and Children, as I sat there open-mouthed and burning..
You'll recall that when I'd phoned him just after the Weekly Gazette had our friend the convicted Sex Offender prancing about in charge of a road-block down in Brickfield Road, that he'd said I was mistaken?  That Nayager was no longer with SAPS and had ‘gone’?
Apparently no-one in our Department of Safety & Security had any idea that the hearings had resulted in Nayager's return, wearing a fancy new title nogal… A tad unsettling wouldn’t you say?  That our Head of Intelligence and his Druglord colleagues can simply override Nathie Mthethwa and allow the Molester to employ a rarely-used loophole in the Law?

You live in a larnie area and as such will be exempt from such shenanegans?  *falls over laughing.. While you may be blessed, due to your financial status, with a somewhat better quality of Area Controller, who’s to say you won't pique the interest of the Whisperers along the way?  Can you guarantee that your responsible and diligent Area Controller won't be replaced in a trice by the likes of Colin P. Balliram, and your relatively safe little world begin to fall apart, as you're attacked a myriad ways via your power supplies and the Mob?  A chance you're clearly happy to take..*shrugs…

Our fate was decided by Koobair the Squat in the mid-nineties, when we set up the first Neighbourhood Watch here in Sherwood.. Deliberately painted as a cop-hater by the thugs running Sydenham SAPS so cosily with Barnabas, there was nowhere to turn for help.
Balliram's arrival next door at No. 6 was a most carefully engineered plan, though to concede that this is correct, would confirm our charming Controller's close affiliation to the Mob, and it ain't gonna happen… *grins..
Ordinary, dull-as-ditchwater citizens, caught up in a web of intrigue and corruption, that now festers across the country.. Who knew?

Mr. Dawood’s proposed development behind Hugo Road is an eyesore of monumental proportions, and for all the world resembles a Place of Safety Institution, it's that ugly.  (See previous post) Will the finished construction look anything like those two hideous blocks depicted?  Your guess….

Peace..
