10 Days and counting before we ROCK CT (again)

Where is Poonam Pandey?

Where is Poonam Pandey? Is the only question that stands still after India won World Cup 2011. The answer to this question is “hospital.”Well, yes model Poonam Pandey who promised to strip if India wins the World Cup is hospitalised for an operation to remove kidney stones, says her publicist. Poonam was admitted on Monday night after she experienced severe pain in her kidney. Her publicist also informed that she will be discharged by Tuesday night. He added that after her discharge (which was supposed to be yesterday night) the model will speak up. The 20 years old model Poonam, posted on her Facebook wall, a few hours ago, “Be content to act, and leave the talking to others.” To give an answer to all the talking that were going around about her after the World Cup, Poonam tweeted to her followers asking them to look for her letter to the BCCI on net. She claimed that the letter will answer all the questions by the people. “I AM WITH MY COMMITMENTS!!,” told the girl. In the letter she has requested the BCCI to allow her to strip for the men in blue. However, according to her lawyer Prashant Uchil, the BCCI has not reverted to her letter till date...

Finally got the pix of the Cape Town Diwali Festival - An incredible experience..... Felt as if I was playing the CAMEL PYRAMID OF LIGHT from back in the day!!!

Just to fill you in..... the organisers had arranged for me to be chauffeured in a Bentley from the airport and my accommodation was at a new 7 Star hotel in the mother city.... "*sigh* the hard-knock life of a DJ"

Thanks to Kuben and the rest of the CTDF organising team....

Medical Aid Madness :(

The cost of medical cover in this country is truly outrageous. Its a lot worse when you do not have the benefit of an employer making a contribution to your premium.

Just when you think you are covered - you discover that your cover is limited and that certain benefits and/ or treatments are not covered... or worse still you have used up your 'savings' for something or the other... and when you suddenly really need it - all that cover gets you more ill just because of the exorbitant cost from the medical aid!!!

If you do not have medical cover - and go without it for some time (years) - you run the risk of a "late joiner penalty" if you are over 35 years old and with some medical insurance providers your choice of cover is determined by how much you earn... WTF!!! Shove your cover exactly in that part of your anatomy which you have covered... I have been on a med aid scheme for some time now, however I am switching companies and until you Discover how sick you actually are to practice business like this - you will not be getting any of my hard earned cash!!!!

There... I feel better already!!!

We are at that time of the week when we need to reflect and try to make heads/ tails and limbs of whats been going on!!!!

I could swear that the station/ studio I broadcast from has somehow transported itself to some malaria infested swamp which is swarming with mosquitoes - ready to take over the broadcasting system... Okay so maybe it's me - if you and I are sitting out in the garden on a summer evening (anywhere in Durban) the mozzies will almost always bite me - just my luck/ chemical imbalance - but I mean this is in an air-conditioned broadcasting studio and these blood sucking Stronza (Italian swear word) are actually breeding here... Yes- I did bring it to the attention of the existing ministry... I suspect that their heads are so far... that they would not know it even if a mozzie bit them on their @$$

Sounds pretty much like a itching and moaning - and yes I did mean to say 'itching' cause of the mosquitoes - session to get the festive season kick started.... Would you expect anything else?

Facebook is all about Shrien Diwani and there are some sods (some of who should be rather neutral on the matter as they bring us the news) make claims that he did it... Then there are the mails doing the rounds about how cheap it is to murder an Indian lady in SA? What rubbish!!! Whether that may be or not- its up to the courts to decide and hopefully the truth shall prevail... Its one of the most talked about stories at the moment... A word of caution thought - Having Faith in the Law does not also mean hainvg faith in Justice....

Oprah Winfrey says she is no lesbian and Gayle King "is the mother I never had. She is the sister everybody would want. She is the friend that everybody deserves. I don't know a better person,” - Oh Oprah - stop breaking the hearts of millions of lesbians the world over and continue having it your OWN way... (OWN is going to be her new cable TV Network)

The festive season is upon us and the market/ media reports indicate that South Africa made nearly 4 billion rand during the Soccer World Cup... Consumer spending is reportedly up... Just in time for you to blow your bonus and 13Th cheque...

Have fun - safe driving over the festive season... spend some time with family and loved ones...

Gooi a lekker braai and enjoy the summer...

Peace...
