Over the past week three independent sources have shown up with the words “hayibo.com” on their lips. Hayibo’s got a great flavour of satire to their stuff – just enough humour but almost believable when taken in the african context… Check it out.

So if you’ve been hiding under a rock, kinda like I’ve been doing with this blog, the whole Vernon Koekemoer thing is happening over at CanLikeToHaveRamboGuy.co.za. Be sure to check out his hot chick K-lo Koekemoer too…
Oh and there was the St Patrick’s Day thing in Hatfield Square. Slugs of War played and awesome energetic set and I was given a free CD in exchange for the photos I took. Note to self: Get the photo’s to the band!!! I’ve posted the photos here too.
Also spending as much time as possible on the bike, hence the lack of updates… more to come in this respect soon.

Congratulations must go to Justin Nurse and Laugh It Off Promotions. They stared into the face of the brute goliath SAB and dared to pull a tongue at them. The constitutional court has ruled in defense of that “tongue-pulling”. So get your browser down to laughitoff.co.za at or around the 3rd June 2005 if you want to get your hands on one of the 1000 “Black Labour, White Guilt” T-shirts they created.
More details on this story can be found here and here.
It is fantastic news to hear that our Constitutional Court still has their heads screwed on correctly, and understands the right to free speech as one of the most valued in our democracy.
When RFC1149 was originally published on April 1 1990, it seemed that the entry barrier to implementing this method of encapsulation was too high. But as always in technology, time has seen change and it took a mere 11 years for a working implementation of TCP IP over Avian Carriers to surface.
Now with the advent of higher speed technologies such as ADSL, experiments in optimisation have been conducted on this protocol. The result: Carrier Pigeon is FASTER than ADSL!
Further biological carrier experiments were conducted a year later, with the discovery that even snails are faster than ADSL. Now that is progress far superceding even the likes of Moore’s law, I believe.
