Rex the lion - your family is in grave danger - Urgent help needed!

Friday, February 27th, 2009

Rex we haven’t seen you around for quite some time, not sure if you are out flirting with another tribe. Dude get your ass back online, there is urgent trouble in the lion kingdom and we need your help.

A group of humans wants to “euthanized” which basically means kill 16 of your buddies, they are not evil humans its just getting to expensive to feed your hungry buddies. The friendly humans have put out an urgent appeal to members of the human race to help raise funds to feed the hungry lions but as is usually the case it seems during these financial times the humans are putting their own mouths first and so it is with regret that I say that if you don’t respond with urgent help, your family is in grave danger!!

A few of your loyal fans have clubbed together to start an action campaign of blogging, tweeting, and even facebooking to help save these 16 amazing lions from sure death, the problem is that even we are not powerful enough on our own and we really need your help. I will also be calling on my good old friend Vernon Koekemoer, maybe he and a few Heavies from Vodacom could step in and help.

If ever there was a time to help save the enviroment now would be the time to jump.

I entreat every single blogger both in South africa and abroad to blog about this and I am sure that together we can help save these beutiful lions from meeting a unfriendly human end.

For more info on the 16 lions that will be executed without your support please visit this site.

On a more sick note: I have heard a rumor that some sick officials do not want to issue permits so these lions can be relocated? I really hope these rumors are not true, do you guys have any idea what rex the lion will do to you if he finds this to be true?

Update: Oh and a little good news for the road, I have just heard that some kind heart has stepped in and provided food for another month, so the execution date will probably be postponed till the end of March. I am still awaiting documentation fron SANwild to back up this story. Will update soon.

Incredible Connection launches a Blog. huh?

Tuesday, February 3rd, 2009

Incredible connection recently launched their very first blog with these words: “Welcome to the Incredible Connection blog! It’s taken quite a while for us to get this blog up and running, but its finally here.”

Dudes it’s been years, not sure what kept you from this space, maybe its all the talk of “Incredible Corruption!” lol well don’t let that get you down. Then again it’s good to see you are taking the first step in the right direction. It’s time for change as Jason so nicely put it, and I am happy to welcome you to the blogosphere.

I must admit if it wasn’t for the “Win a Fujifilm Finepix J100 Digital Camera!” option, I might not have blogged but hey we all have our reasons and it’s time to play around with something shiny and new and that camera has my name written all over it, even if its just a junker, at least it’s shiny and hopefully new. hehe

Wow, I see those guys are ripping you to shreds on Mybroadband, to quote just one of those evil dudes “Probably some cheap-ass camera that someone brought back.” sorry I couldn’t help but laugh at this.  My advice IC is to make sure you got your bullet proof undies on and to stand your ground, the storm will soon abate and if you don’t give up you can turn your reputation around for the good of all nerdies out there.

Here’s to seeing Incredible Connection in the Blogosphere for many years to come.

WELCOME TO OUR WORLD GUYS

So what are you waiting for, send me that camera already ;-)
