did someone say Polokwane??

So, the buzz word around SA polictics seems to be Polokwane these days. So why should we care? Well, besides the fact that Polokwane (an obscure little city on the South African map) is finally in the news for something that hasn't got anything to do with it's close proximity to Limpopo...u know that other province where people apparently fly on teaspoons instead of Nationwide airlines. Ok but on the real though, 10 days from now we might wake up to find Jacob Zuma as our future President...that's some scary stuff. That is unless you work in the shower installation industry. But is Zuma really that bad?? I mean even Thabo Mbeki has his faults and we all know that corruption is like a badge of honour in our cabinet. So why the hell are we making such a big deal out of a possible Zuma presidency? surely he will not be running the country by himself...u know there is Shabir Shaik, Zwelinzima Vavi and Fikile Mbalula to help him right, that's not so bad?? On second thought, maybe I need to hitch a ride on one of those flying spoons and head off to Polokwane coz the conference is bound to be interesting, to say the least.
