Yesterday, after I left you here, I went to explore the world beyond my gate. Predictably, I got eleven metres and was inexplicably drawn to the botequim… 🙂
As I got a beer from the fridge and setteled down with a chilled glass to pour my beer Mariah Carey’s ‘Without you’ was playing on the radio, when it came to the chorus, I was singing “Ken lee, tulibu dibi douchoo”… weird? I had forgotten the real lyrics in favour of this.
For those of you who are wise in the workings of the net, you’ve probably seen the video clip of the Bulgarian girl in a song contest and understand what I’m talking about. For those of you not so afflicted, I give you the video clip, so that you too can sing like a Bulgarian…
That is just so hilarious.
There having got that out of my system, let’s move right along.
Remember the weather two days ago? Yesterday’s post Like a Politician, well, we got it yesterday.
Thunder and lightning for a couple of hours, then at 4:15pm and the heavens opened. In the next 45 minutes we got nearly 15mm of rain. A square 4gal paint can in my yard had 6″ of water in it. The street drains blocked up with leaves and rubbish and I was out in shorts trying to clear the three around the botequim so the water could escape The river that flows beside the bar, normally a polluted little trickle, became a raging torrent with huge waves; it would have been too dangerous to use it for white water rafting.
After the deluge, I was exhausted. In the morning I had also stretched my reserves and pulled the roadside weeds out. Adding the excesses of the storm…
I have a question. Why do we elect unemployed, unqualified people into the government? They then become ministers in charge of departments that they know nothing about. The only answer that I can logically come up with is that we are fools.
It rained on and off over night and is cool, I have done nothing but concentrate on caffeine levels.
Finally someone else has the balls to challenge Sepp Blathermouth as president of FIFA. Maybe we’ll get some football news now. Sepp Blathermouth is like an old box of milk that is past it’s consumption date, sour and lumpy, chuck it out. That means there are two candidates challenging the incumbent.
That’s about it for today, it’s too early for anything to have actually happened. And remember, Ken lee, tulibu dibi douchoo… 🙂
Later.
Reminds me of the mating foxes last night outside my house.

Foxes are very noisy, and the police have been called due to the screaming some foxes make when people thought someone was being attacked.
The comment related to the video, just to avoid confusion.

That is a gross abuse of the blogosphere, AV. And it isn’t Mariah Carey’s song. Nilsson was singing it when I was a teenager. Now it is ruined forever. Foxes sound better, I promise you. Please don’t ever do that again.

It’s all in the articulation. Ken lee – funny indeed. I think that government positions automatically attack incompetants. That is why I cringe at the people who become career politicians.
What is this about FIFA going to Katar?

>Leslie, FIFA going to Katar??? The two candidates are Jordanian and, I think, Belgian…
I meant to add that career politicians should be banned; maximum two terms, then out and a minumum of two terms before being eligible again.

Thought I heard something about Katar, could be wrong.
Get rid of pensions for elected representatives and they won’t stay long. Two terms max (no one is that good and limits the damage).
