A cabinet minister?

Imagine calling your daughter a cabinet minister. Well, it seems as if Tom Cruise and his Dawson's Creek star of a wife, Katie Holmes, have mistakenly named their daughter a cabinet minister. Well that is the modern day meaning for the Hebrew word Suri, which is what they named their new born girl. I guess they were hoping that no one would cotton on to the fact that Suri, which used to refer to a feminine Lord, actually refers to a cabinet minister. At least 'Suri' will be able to change this when she grows up. And by the way Tom Cruise did not eat the baby's placenta.

Those maggots will get you!

Hi, this is not a joke unfortunately. If you’ve seen e-news lately, they have found rat-tailed maggots in people’s toilets and sinks in Cape Town, Durbs and Brakpan so far (there are new ones every day). They start out small and grow bigger depending on how much of your waste (that’s poo) they can eat. Next time you pour yourself a glass of water, take some time to have a close look before you down it. I guess we all know that living in South Africa has the odd drawback.
