Oh my god it's him. This day has rushed up on us like Jake White's backline on defence. Incredible! Tonight some unlucky palooka in durban will have his doll pulled on stage in front of a hundred thousand people to be serenaded to by the world's 'king of pop'. [if mark gilman crownded me the king of pop I certainly wouldn't sport the accolade with much regularity...]
Enough about that, the most important gig on his SA tour fixture sheet is definitely Cape Town so that is the one we are waiting for. However, on the same theme of famous people in SA it is no surprise the the on-screen criminal siblings from Prison Break have also spent the weekend in the mother city. Pretty hectic hey. Apparently they came to case out Pollsmoor as a possible set for season 2 but Wentworth made the observation that it was so easy to break out of that they wouldn't be able to sustain a 22 episode second series. Too bad.
I don't really see what it is an issue though! Everyone LOVES the first series and it is premised on the fact that Lincoln Burrows is on death row in an Illinois State Prison - Fox River. However, although Illinois does carry a death penalty for 1st degree murder with 1 of 21 aggravating circumstances, they only have death rows in "Pontiac and Menard", not anywhere near Chicago. Lets not get picky it's still a cool show...[although Nip/Tuck is better]
And one more snippet. Heard on the news the other day that the Red Cross and someone else has donated US$3,8 billion for AIDS relief in Africa over the next five years. Apparently Jacob Zuma spoke to The Water Board and they worked out that at 50cents a shower they can spend the money on 7,6 billion post non-protected sex showers... Shot gun at least a 100!!!!
