The justice system is a joke. Fact.
Some people may take offence to what I have to say, but my last two appearances in court have been an absolute waste of time. I honestly believe that a heard of wild donkeys could do a better job than those clowns that run the show.Our case was as simple as it gets, two guys were caught for stealing. One of them had numerous convictions the other was a first time offender. Easy right? No chance…
So yesterday was my second appearance in F court. I was given the assurance that because our case had been delayed we would be the first one to go on trial. Fat chance. Case after case was heard…still nothing. A half an hour tea break took an hour. After creating a big fuss about the never ending delays I was rudely told that the state was doing me a favour. That just made me go nuts. I am one chilled cat, but incompetence like this just makes me go loco.
Before I get into what happened, let me give you my favourite quote of the day… “Your honour, on the one leg we have this situation, on the other leg we have another situation.” I could not contain my laughter, I was giggling like a little girl at lunch time. The amount of times I heard “your honour, this is much of a muchness” was uncountable. If I ever got into the situation were I had the option of representing myself or getting legal aide, I would represent myself. A half blind, dumb clown with a limp would do a better job.
So eventually we are called up. Guess what, its twenty minutes before lunch. So our trial had to be put off again for another hour. This is when I called it quits. We dropped the charges due to the state and their incompetence. Well done, you let a criminal get away. The courts could do with a big dose of the human touch. They are so out of touch with reality they may as well be living in Malawi.Wake up!
So two days wasted no outcome and one very happy boy by the name of blue. To the state, you let everyone down. Well done.

Cellphone Chaos.
Zimbabwe, as I reported yesterday, is in the throes of their most important presidential election to date.
While the citizens wait anxiously for the results they have been hit by a heavy tech breakdown, well more than usual anyways.
Zimbabwe’s phone services have been going down for ages and degrading into complete disarray.
Now the country has been totally crippled by a critical network jam, caused by the millions of Zimbabweans trying to get word of election results.

Goooood morning all.
Sumo is serious.
That’s right I’m talking about those rather large Japanese fighters who stand in a circle and slap attack each other around.
Todays Tshirt of the Day is a hilarious rip of the super serious sumo culture and it does so in “seriously sticky” style.
Enter the Rocky: Sticky Sumo (that sounds terrible)
Never mess with a sumo. These boys may just look like overweight people in giant diapers….but dude these okes will stomp you out of existence, they are ultra quick and stuffing strong, they would undoubtedly put most people on their backs…and pancake flat.
In Japan their culture is taken very seriously, all of the sumo battles are done with tons of precise ceremony and loads of rice throwing 
What simple trick can you pull to make a mighty sumo champ look like a chump….simple.
Just get a massive blob of pink chewing gum and throw it from the cheap seats into the ring…hey presto a sumo with a sticky foot and very upset face.
Maybe that’s why the Sticky Sumo is in silhouette…so you can’t see the rage in his eyes.
I personally love the Sticky Sumo design, as you may know I’m obsessive over anything Japanese and have major respect for their culture….this shirt however just makes me laugh and I reckon it would make even the most powerful sumo chuckle…well on the inside anyways. 
Duncs.
