Castrate the bastards

Check-in standing. Check-out flat. Boxed in.

A 31-year-old New Zealander has choked to dead while eating an airline meal on a flight from Singapore to Auckland.
Flying can be a dangerous event. Wondering in which airspace he was when he died. Just for the death certificate.

Was it chicken or beef?

Human behavior can be a choking affair.

Speaking of chickens. A sign in a food store said “No chicken because of industrial action”. What they didn’t say is industrial action (aka strike) by whom? The drivers? The chicken slaughters? The packers? Or maybe the chickens themselves! Maybe the chickens were tired of the same food every day. The crowded living conditions?

Anyway. No chicken available. Maybe the air passenger ate a ‘bad’ chicken? And that lead to industrial action…. Who knows? The world is a global village. A chicken here can cause a death there….

From chickens to stalking seems a hell of a long way, but in this funny world of crazy humans it’s certainly possible in a whimper.

A woman loves a man. It happens. When that love isn’t returned anymore it causes some fuses to pop in some woman’s head… it seems.

Dutch prosecutors are charging a 42-year-old woman with stalking after she called her ex-boyfriend 65000 times in the past year. Yes! 65000 Times in 1 year. How do you do that? That’s 178 calls per day! That’s 1 call every 8 minutes for a whole year. Day in day out. Crazy or totally nuts? That’s repeat dial in overdrive and on cocaine! So with some sleeping time, it’s probably 1 call every 6 or 5 minutes. A Dutch asylum is getting a new inmate!

The stalker told the judge the number of calls to her lover wasn’t excessive! Wow! What’s excessive then? Calling somebody every minute for a whole year? It’s only excessive then? Hello asylum! Get the electro shocks ready. One thing’s for sure, never ever give that women your number!

From insanity to madness.

South Africa’s police boss released the country’s new crime statistics. Seems there are a few lesser bloodstains as most crime categories have gone down a little.

But rape still stands at 56272 cases (a “slight” increase from 55097 in the previous year). That is between 6 and 7 rapes per hour!!!! Every day for a whole year long. And – as in all countries – rape is always an underreported crime as many victims do not go to the cops for a variety of reasons.

South Africa is the rape nation of the universe. It is insane beyond comprehension. Somebody being raped every 8 or 10 minutes! Which in reality many field workers think it is probably every 4 or 5 minutes because of the unreported cases. Wow! Castration of the perpetrators really becomes a totally acceptable punishment!

Human behavior can be very sickening!

Staying in edgy South Africa. The president (who has multiple wives) appointed a new Chief Justice. That’s like the boss of all judges and courts. The super-judge. But his choice is very controversial.

The new Chief Justice (whose first name is the same as his family name) is also a counselor at a Christian church. And there, in his counseling role, he aims to ‘cure’ gays and lesbians and prays to bring them back on the ‘path of righteousness’. Kick that for a Chief Justice, who is the main judge at South Africa’s Constitutional Court.

In previous rulings, before he became super-judge, he commented that rape within marriage ain’t too bad. If a man beats his wife or girlfriend up it was because she asked for it in the way she behaved or dressed.

And as he was nominated he said, during a live TV broadcast, that God has given him a sign that God wanted him to become the new Chief Justice.

Is there another bed free in that asylum in Holland?

Human behavior can take humanity a few steps back.

Sticking to religion. Around 1000 potential Islamist terrorists are living in Germany. There you have it! Start the riots! Germany’s interior minister Hans-Peter Friedrich made this amazing statement. And he added that of these 1000 some 128 were classified as potential attackers. There you go. Fear is among us.

If they classify 128 as potential nutters that will/can carry out terrorist attacks, what are they waiting for to arrest them? What parameters were used to classify them as deadly serious? And if so, can these parameters not be used to arrest them/ or are we waiting the first detonation?

Because if a minister makes such bold statements he better be sure before a pogrom kicks off. And if he is certain then there needs to be certain elements of proof that 128 of those 1000 are serious nutters. And thus, once again, what are we waiting for?

Get them before they get you. It’s basics.

Throw out. These grunge-rockers from Seattle have been kicking it for 20 years now. Pearl Jam is celebrating it’s 20th anniversary this month and are releasing a DVD beauty. The DVD is in fact a fully fledged movie, directed by Cameron Crowe. Plenty of never-seen behind the scenes footage. And to accompany the “PJ20” movie, the band is also releasing the soundtrack which includes rare, unreleased and live tracks. Hope PJ stays around for another 20 years. Kick that!
