Responses to Rrramone!
After getting together with Kyknoord The Katt Box was suddenly exposed. Thanks to all of you for visiting. Rrramone, you had the diligence and patience to work through my older drivel (the medal is in the mail) and were kind enough to leave comments. In those comments you asked quite a few questions. In view of the fact that there isn't much to blog about at the moment, too many confusing thoughts whirling through the vacuum where most people have a brain (I'm blonde), maybe I should take a stab at replying to your comments.

Katt, the tart is a confirmed wingnut. She will even admit that. :-) But she is a nice wingnut. Tart, please don't kill me.

For the umpteenth time, please blog about it, both of you! By the way, in South Africa a wingnut is someone who has really sticky outie ears. Tart's got sticky outie ears?

So did you find a good job yet?
Not that I could be of much help all the way over in the good old USA, but I am curious. :-)

Unfortunately no one offered me a job! No one even asked for a resume! I did however get a suggestion from a good friend of mine in the States, out Texas way too strangely enough. He suggested I try the US Department of Defence or something like that. Of course, I got rather delicious visions in my head of being placed in charge of a big, beefy guided missile system. Can you imagine? You point it at random and say "Ask yourself, are you feeling lucky, Punk?" That should cause a few grey hairs.

I don't know what rummy is but that is funny!
The Reply:
Rummy is a card game that we bored folks play down on the farm once a week when we have a games night. We have actually considered putting up a video camera and taping our games nights because no one would believe us if we told them about it after the fact.

Meat tanning session?

Known as a barbecue in your part of the world, officially a braai in South Africa and you have to really get your tongue into rolling that "R." However, we don't just do hamburgers and hotdogs - we throw everything on the fire except mince (ground beef to you) because that tends to fall through the grill. Another common braai phenomenon is when the alcohol has been flowing too freely it often becomes a meat charring session and then you get a whole bunch of grumpy women and giggly men in the mix.

And how about more pics? Remember 1 is worth a thousand words. :-)

Actually, thanks to Shutterjane I now have a Flickr account and I am working on it. It might take a while because the funds and finances cannot accommodate my dream digital camera so everything is taken with a 35mm film camera. Watch this space!
Footnote to The Tart:You suggested a posting about "What is in my fridge?" Well, Flyboy obviously has been living on air because it is pretty empty at the moment. I will give it a while to grow in content and in bacterial content and see what I can come up with. Great idea though!

Love your rrresponses. Regarding the empty fridge, maybe Flyboy went on diet to be trim and limber for your return?
that missile system sounds cool- i'll send you my number and when you get one i'll come over and play too!
oh- and i love your definition of a braai doll!
Kyk: I am not sure about the trim and limber actually. It was more a case of his and SwissMix's spawn had eaten him out of the house. And the replenishment shopping was put off until my return.
Angel: We have a date with a guided missile system.
