Youth for Kenya Night

22 Oct

Hey all,

I hope this message finds you well. We would like to invite you to a night dubbed ‘Thursday Thriller’. Sin Bin Sports Lounge has been kind enough to host us. It will be on the 28th of this month.

The theme of the night is networking and patriotism. If you have products or services to showcase or spread, you can do it here. Come meet like minded people, making a difference. There will be a raffle and prizes to be won.

We plan on making this a success doing this on the first and last Thursday of every month, so you are welcome.

Keep The Damned Egg

13 Oct

A Scotsman and an Englishman lived next door to each other.

The Scotsman owned a hen and each morning he would look in his garden and pick up one of his hen’s eggs for breakfast.

One day he looked into his garden and saw that the hen had laid an egg in the Englishman’s garden. He was about to go next door when he saw the Englishman pick up the egg.

The Scotsman ran up to the Englishman and told him that the egg belonged to him because he owned the hen.

The Englishman disagreed because the egg was laid on his property.

They argued for a while until finally the Scotsman said, “In my family we normally solve disputes by the following actions: I kick you in the testicles and time how long it takes for you to get back up. Then you kick me in the testicles and time how long it takes for me to get up. Whoever gets up quicker wins the egg.”

The Englishman agreed to this and so the Scotsman put on the heaviest pair of boots he could find. He took a few steps back, then ran toward the Englishman and kicked him as hard as he could in the testicles.

The Englishman fell to the floor clutching his groin, howling in agony for 30 minutes.

Eventually the Englishman stood up and said, “Now it’s my turn to kick you.”

The Scotsman smiled and said, “Ye can keep the damn egg!!”

Jesus is Watching You

13 Oct

One night a robber broke into a home and heard a voice say, “Jesus is watching you!” while he rumagged through the desk.

He replied, “Who said that?!”

Once again he heard the same thing, “Jesus is watching you!”

The robber looked around the room only to see a parrot. He asked the parrot what its name was. The parrot replied, “Cornelius.”

The robber said, “What kind of a name is that?! Who names a parrot that?!”

The parrot said, “The same person who named that rottweiler behind you Jesus!”

Microsoft Support

13 Oct

A pilot is flying a small, single-engine, charter plane with a couple of really important executives on board into Seattle airport. There is fog so thick that visibility is 40 feet, and his instruments are out. He circles looking for a landmark and after an hour, he is low on fuel and his passengers are very nervous.

At last, through a small opening in the fog he sees a tall building with one guy working alone on the fifth floor. Circling, the pilot banks and shouts through his open window: “Hey, where am I?”. The solitary office worker replies: “You’re in an airplane.”. The pilot immediately executes a swift 275 degree turn and executes a perfect blind landing on the airport’s runway five miles away. Just as the plane stops, the engines cough and die from lack of fuel. The stunned passengers ask the pilot how he did it.

“Elementary,” replies the pilot, “I asked the guy in that building a simple question. The answer he gave me was 100% correct but absolutely useless; therefore, I knew that must be Microsoft’s support office and from there the airport is three minutes away on a course of 87 degrees.”

Successful Sons

13 Oct

Four men got together at a reunion. All of them had sons and they started discussing them. The first man said his son was doing so well, he now owned a factory, manufacturing furniture. Why, just the other day he gave his best friend a whole house full of brand new furniture. The second man said his son was doing just as well. He was a manager at a car sales firm. Why, just the other day he gave his best friend a Ferrari. The third man said his was doing well too. He was a manager at a bank. Why, just the other day he gave his best friend money to buy a house. The fourth man just shook his head.
He said his son was gay and hadn’t amounted to much. But he must be doing something right because, just the other day he was given a house, furniture and a Ferrari by his friends!

Competition

13 Oct

A shopkeeper was dismayed when a brand new business much like his own opened up next door and erected a huge sign which read ‘BEST DEALS.’

He was horrified when another competitor opened up on his right, and announced its arrival with an even larger sign, reading ‘LOWEST PRICES.’

The shopkeeper panicked, until he got an idea. He put the biggest sign of all over his own shop. It read ‘MAIN ENTRANCE’.

Fools

13 Oct

Fools…

They don’t know

What they’re on about

Those fools

Don’t get my dreams

And I want it, I want it, I want it

And I want it, I want it, I want it

All

When you can’t wait

To watch me fall

High…

Singin’ stories on a wrecking ball

Colliding fast

To bring you down

If you want it, you want it, you want it

If you want it, you want it, you want it

All

Sometimes

Things we build

To fall

And I want it, I want it, I want it

And I want it, I want it, I want it

All…

For The First Time

8 Oct

She’s all laid up in bed with a broken heart
While I’m drinking Jack all alone in my local bar
And we don’t know how, how we got into this mad situation
Only doing things out of frustration
Trying to make it work but man these times are hard

She needs me now but I can’t seem to find the time
I’ve got a new job now in the unemployment line
And we don’t know how,

How we got into this mess

Is it God’s test?

Someone help us cause we’re doing our best

Trying to make it work but man these times are hard
But we’re gonna start by drinking old cheap bottles of wine
Shit talking up all night
Saying things we haven’t for a while, a while yeah
We’re smiling but we’re close to tears
Even after all these years
We just now got the feeling that we’re meeting
For the first time

She’s in line at the dole with her head held high
While I just lost my job I didn’t lose my pride
But we both know how, how we’re gonna make it work when it hurts
When you pick yourself up you get kicked in the dirt

Even after all these years
We just now got the feeling that we’re meeting
For the first time

Yeah, for the first time
We just now got the feeling that we’re meeting
For the first time

Oh these times are hard
Yeah they’re making us crazy
Don’t give up on me baby

Yeah they’re making us crazy
But don’t give up on me baby…

LIAISON PRISON by Mbithe Mosa

8 Oct

I’m stuck in the same moment again. Like a pin on a faulty record I love to sway my hips to. One foot outside the door becomes sinking fast in the pleasurably choking quicksand that is your mind. I imagine the creasing of your lips in response to my attempt at humor. Bittersweet chills cascade over my limbs. I believe I am addicted to this electric shock therapy that is your presence. Stockholm had no idea about this syndrome of impending doom. All reason has left me, swirling madly down the drain of what is left of my heart. Wisdom, caution and measure with it. I am content with keeping this biting secret of love to myself. The shadowy truth that you do not feel as I do can be buried under the guise of this prison called liaison.

MMosa.
