Incoming from the Ad Wizard: “A possible 6000 story?”
Yep – I’ll go for that.
Not sure where this came from originally or if it’s true.
But you know, this is South Africa and people are nothing if not resourceful.
It’s a cool story – I choose to believe.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! That’s hysterical. This Ad Wizard friend of yours has a real eye for humour. LOL! LMAO! ROTFL!
Roni – Hmm. You’ve obviously never met him.
Priceless.
Simply wonderful. I can hardly believe it, but…
Only in Africa. 🙂
Funny 🙂
Bridget – You know it could happen.
Granville – You know it could happen.
D’Arche – That’s true.

But coming out next spring, the Mark III allows you to skip the AMBER ad breaks with the patented FAST FORWARD remote button feature.”
Supoib! There’s a traffic light outside my house. All my energy troubles are over!
Richard – The PVR version of stolen electricity. I like it.
Fleet – Welcome back. 🙂
Ironically, we actually do live right next to a set of lights. You should see the disco effect I’ve created by wiring us up to the flashing amber…
Great blog – some more time added to my daily reading list.
God, I am just so transparent aren’t I.
