Pictures!
Toilet I forgot to mention here last time that my toilet was nice enough to go and break on me this weekend. This is what became of the nice plastic flush handle. So, it was off to Home Depot to pick up a new one, after I decided to stop being lazy about it (and realized krazy glue just wouldn’t hold). I picked up a nice metal one this time, so hopefully it won’t be breaking any time soon. Here’s me screwing it in… damn thing was reverse threaded and I didn’t read the packaging – took me like ten minutes to figure out why I couldn’t do it. And here’s the completed job. And it actually works. I can flush my toilet again. Cantenna I got the pigtail and other miscellaneous parts for my cantenna today, and put it together. I got it working reasonably well, once I figured out that I have to push the pigtail connector all the way into the wireless card. I saw 9 or 10 networks pointing out my window, most of the with no security. I was able to get online easily with three of them, and didn’t try any of the others. I’m pleased. |

FROM: MRS. FAVOUR DUBE
15 LINE STREET SANDTON,
JOHANNESBURG,
SOUTH-AFRICA.
TELE/FAX:27-83-245-5911
URGENT AND CONFIDENTIAL.
Dear sir/madam
You may be surprise to recieve this letter from me since you don’t know me personally,but for the introduction, I am Mrs. Favour Dube, the wife of Dr. Benneth Dube, who was recently murdered because of the land dispute in Zimbabwe. I got your contact from the INTERNATIONAL TRADE CENTRE here in Johannesburg, South Africa and decided to write you. My late husband was among the few black Zimbabwean rich farmers who were murdered in cold blood by the agents of the rulling government of President Robert Mugabe for his alleged support and sympathy for the Zimbabwean opposition party,partly controlled by the white minority.
Before his death,he had taken me to Johannesburg to deposit the sum of EIGHTEEN MILLION,FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS (US$ 18.5M) with a security and finance company as if he knew the looming danger in Zimbabwe.The money was deposited in a box as a Gemstone to avoid much demurrage from the security company.This money was earmarked for the purchase of new machineries and chemicals for the establishment of new farms in Lesotho and Swaziland.
This land problem arose when President Robert Mugabe introduced a new land reform act,which wholly affected the rich white farmers ,and some few blacks vehemently condemned the modus operandi adopted by the Government.This led to rampant killings and mob actions by war veterans and some political thugs .More than forty-nine(49) people have been killed and countless numbers of farm workers displaced.
Heads of government from the west,especially Britain and United States OF America have voiced their condemnation over Mugabe’s plans. Subsequently,the south African Development Community ( SADEC) has continuosly supported Mugabe’s new land reform act.It is against this background that I and my family who are currently staying in South Africa have decided to transfer this money into a foreign account.I am saddled with the responsibility of seeking a genuine foreign account where this money would be transferd without the knowledge of my government who are tactically freezing our family wealth and South African government seems to be playing around with them.
Sincerely speaking, I am faced with the dilenma of investing this amount of money in South Africa for the fear of encountering the same experience in future since both countries have almost the same political history and moreover the South African foreign Exchange policy doesn’t allow such investment hence I am seeking for assylum. As someone whom I am entrusting my future and that of my family in his hands,I am honestly letting you know that this transaction is 100% risk free and the nature of your business doesn’t necessarily matter. So please, if you consider to assist my family and I, I will be willing to give you 25% of the total money for your assistance, 5% will be mapped out for expenses incured in the process of transfering this money into your nominated account abroad,then 70% will be for investing profitably in your country on behalf of my family.Infact, I will like to invest in your country on commercial property based on your advice and I will recieve assurance that you won’t sit on this money when it is transfered into your personal or company’s account.
If my request meets with your kind considerations, please send to me your personal details so as to discuss the modalities necessary for the success of this transaction.I also want you to know that this transaction is highly confidential and should be kept by you alone.
I hope to hear from you through my e-mail address.
Best Regards,
Mrs.Favour Dube.
