A few years ago, at the Seattle Special Olympics, nine
contestants,all physically or mentally disabled, assembled at the
starting line for the 100-yard dash.
At the gun, they all started out, not exactly in a dash,
but with a relish to run the race to the finish and win.
All, that is, except one little boy
who stumbled on the asphalt, tumbled over a couple of
times, and began to cry.
The other eight heard the boy cry. They slowed down and looked back.
Then they all turned around and went back......every one of them.
One girl with Down's Syndrome bent down and kissed him and said,
"This will make it better,"
Then all nine linked arms and walked together to the
finish line. Everyone in the stadium stood, and the cheering went on for
several minutes. People who were there are still telling the story.
Why? Because deep down we know this one thing:
What matters in this life is more than winning for ourselves.
What matters in this life is helping others win, even if
it means slowing down and changing our course.
If you pass this on, we may be able to change our hearts
as well as someone else's...............

Well-rested after a well-deserved holiday over Christmas and New Year, black
killers and robbers returned with a vengeance to white areas in the New SA,
killing and shooting their way right into the homes of many more defenceless
whites all over the country. Another white Mpumalanga farmer has been
callously murdered on his farm. Malcolm Potgieter, 63, was shot dead by
black killers on Falconer Farm near White River, who assaulted and tied up
his wife Dorothy, before getting away with a television set, video machine
and a white Nissan Sentra from the farm. A North West farmer, Dawie Bishoff,
is in a critical condition in a local hospital after being attacked, kicked
and stabbed several times in a robbery at his house. The 75-year-old and his
wife were sleeping, when two attackers broke into their home on Thursday at
midnight and attacked them there.
A particularly horrifying murder took place near Vryheid in Natal.
The parents of Rudi Johannes Coertze, 21, when notified of their son's
failure to return home from a fishing trip at a local dam, tried his
cell-phone and had to listen in horror to the black killer describing in
great detail how their son had begged for mercy as he was stabbed and hacked
to death. Afterwards, police and the media confirmed the detail and saw a
huge blood trail which led from the spot where the young white was first
attacked to his bakkie, which he had tried to climb into to get away from
his brutal attackers.
Pretoria anthropologist Professor Frik de Beer (52) and his son, Magiel
(23), were seriously wounded by armed black hijackers, who sprayed their
family and friends with a hail of bullets, eight of which found flesh.
De Beer and his family were returning to their home shortly after midnight,
when the would-be killers struck. After they got rid of their white victims,
who were either lying on the ground bleeding or had run away, the hijackers
got into the BMW 320, drove off, crashed into a wall, and got away. In a
frank interview from his hospital bed, the professor described the current
situation in the New SA as a 'war', urging people to stand together to ward
off the all-pervading threat.
Another elderly white farmer, Tjaart van der Walt, has been assaulted by
black robbers on his farm. One of the attackers hit the old man over the
head with a heavy iron pipe and then tied him up. His weapon and bakkie was
taken and the attackers got away, as usual.
At a road block between Beit Bridge and Messina, black traffic officials
assaulted white motorists, beating and strangling them and calling them
'white dogs'. Hermanus Schoeman, Pieter Buys and Andries Crosby of Messina
were arrested and 'taken to the bush' by the black policemen, who had been
keeping nearly a hundred motorists waiting in the sun for hours to appear in
a mobile roadside traffic court.
An unidentified Alberton man was shot in the thigh during a robbery at the
Rhodes Park Library parking lot in Kensington on Sunday night.
In Cape Town's quiet and scenic Kirstenhof gardens, shots were heard late at
night and the body of a woman, in her 30s, was found in the passenger seat
of a car, with the body of a man, also in his 30s, lying next to the
vehicle. Both had been shot. The motive for the killing was not known.
About 12 armed black men have held up two Fidelity Guards on the
Maritzburg/Kaserne onramp of the M2 East highway in Johannesburg. They
forced the guard's cash-in-transit vehicle off the road and then fled in two
vehicles with an undisclosed amount of cash.
As usual, the black terror has not spared blacks, either. A group of black
men shot and set alight a 30-year-old black woman at her home in the
Machochobane squatter camp near Ennerdale. Three black people were murdered
on Sunday in different areas of Alexandra.
Several black women have been raped by black men in and around squatter
camps, which have been described as 'dens of iniquity'. A 44-year-old woman
was allegedly assaulted and raped under a bridge near the Orange Grove
'informal settlement'. In the Fort Grey squatter camp, another woman aged 20
was raped by two men known to her. And in Port Elizabeth three young girls
were raped in separate incidents over the weekend. One of them was a
13-year-old, one a 14-year-old, and one an 18-year-old girl.
A black man wanted on a murder charge shot and killed a black Diepkloof
police inspector outside his house on Thursday afternoon. Inspector David
Mthimngwevu saw a known fugitive loitering near his front gate, took his
service pistol and went to confront the man, - only to be shot and robbed by
the armed suspect after a short scuffle.
A black mob burnt down a school in Tsolo near Umtata on Thursday night.
Jongilizwe Senior Secondary school's assembly hall, library and the staff
room have been reduced to ashes, with damaged estimated at R1 million. The
fire was put out by the fire brigade on Friday morning. The ruling
ANC/Communist Regime started the practice of burning down schools during its
terror days to deprive black children of what they termed 'inferior
education'...
Laat jou indrukwekkende CV my dink aan 'n ou boeregrappie.
Vir die sardoniese plesier van die plebs op die NG vertel
ek hom vir julle.
Eendag loop twee ou skoolvriende mekaar raak en begin gesels
oor hulle prestasies sedert matriek ( in die jaar toet).
Sê die eerste een met die fênsie suit en die hempie vol
frilletjies aan sy vriend met die leerbaadjie en die
spykerjeans: Ou Jan, is ek bly om jou te sien.
Jy het maar gesukkel op skool en hier is jy vanaand
spekvet en vol spiere. Maar voordat ons oor die ou dae gesels,
wil ek jou gou vertel wat ek alles in die lewe bereik het.
Ek het my B.Mus (cum laude) gekry, toe my M.Mus (cum laude)
en toe my D.Phil (cum laude) en toe nog 'n D.Mus (cum laude).
Ek is toe met 'n vrou getroud met 'n M.Mus (cum laude).
Sy het so pas ook haar D.Mus (cum laude) aan my alma mater
verwerf. Ons oudste dogter het so pas haar M.Mus (cum laude)
verwerf. Bring gerus een aand jou gesin oor na ons toe dat ons vir
julle 'n stukkie kan speel.
Sê die ou met die leerbaadjie: Ou Piet, is ek bly om jou te sien.
Ek het my tiende dan in die Fillipynse gevegskuns gekry,
nadat ek my swart belt in sjoekoetchai karate gekry het.
Onlangs het ek my poekoetjai swartbelt en vyfde dan
verwerf. My vrou is 'n meester in die Oosterse
jujitsoe en het self haar sesde dan. My dogter het
'n swartbelt en vierde dan kungfoe. Jy en jou
gesin moet gerus een aand oorkom na ons toe dat ons julle
so effens kan opfok.

Wel, ou Jonas, op die oomblik lees ek die biografie vanLangenhoven deur
Kannemeyer. Dit lees soveel makliker
as die onlangse biografie van NP. Kannemeyer se biografieë
is meer juicy as meeste, nê? Het jy al die Langenhoven-
biografie gelees?

Hou oud is jy, Jonas, dat jy nog die woord "normaalkollege"
gebruik? Wel, ou Jonas, ek weet nou nie hoe geletterd ek is
nie (ek is maar 'n nederige persoon), maar ek sal vir jou vertel
watter akademiese opleiding ek gehad het, dan kan jy besluit
watter gebrek ek het. Ek doen dit deels omdat ek weet Lou
sal tien groen tierkatjies kry as hy dit lees. So here goes:
B.A. Universiteit van Stellenbosch
S.O.D. Universiteit van Stellenbosch
BA Hons. (cum laude) Universiteit van Natal
M.A. (cum laude) Universiteit van Natal
Ph.D. Universiteit van Natal (met as eksterne
eksaminator NP van Wyk Louw. My
promotor was Stoffel Nienaber. Albei
my verhandelings het gegaan oor
Dirk Opperman.
'n Napster-kameradin in Kanada is op soek na 'n boeremusiek-webblad -
bestaan so iets? Ook, wat is "cabin-fever" in Afrikaans - die soekende
persoon het boeremusiek met 'n passie gehaat - in die Hantamjare...
Dis soos gister toe die ANC se slagspreuk deursigtigheid ("transparency") -
was. Mapstieks, het dinge nie vinnig verander nie? Ook, ubuntu - steel van
die rykes en hou vir jouself. Jou indrukke van die vorige regime / regering
kan wees wat dit wil - hierdie manne is besig om nie slegs die koffers leeg
te maak nie, selfs die koffers verdwyn nou. Cholera in die Juksie, vigs wat
gedy - die regse manne jubel seker?

Waar is Samuel Murray?
Ferdi, hy het mos daar in jou soutmyn kom werk, lyk my die
arme kêrel is toegegooi onder die werk. Is hy nog daar in
jou omgewing?

My "PC" is baie stadig wanneer ek "XSTREAME" en "XSINET" service
providers gebruik, maar 100% met ICON?.
Hierdie "providers" is gratis en wat hulle doen is om op jou screen te
adverteer.
Wat ek graag wil weet......sal my pc vinniger stuur en ontvang as ek die
advertensies stop?
En as die antwoord ja is ....hoe stop ek die advertensies? daar moet 'n
manier wees?
