I do not like nor support the Labour party nor the trotskyite currently occupying 10 Downing St.

I have seen more charisma in roadkill than there is in Brown. His smile is a painful experience to see.

He really does ‘morose’ so well he should stick with it. The humourless age of the Stalinist days at The Kremlin would have been his ideal environment. No smiles. Just total glum and dour monotony.

Ooze your Prime Minister

No joke. Really. Too many people on this planet think they are not worthy of your and my appreciation

Too many people on this planet think they do not meet someone else’s expectations when in fact they do. All they have done is gotten themselves into a loop of not believing they have the talent and skills and characteristics to be so darned great.

We need to help these people by breaking the self-destructive loop. Please do it.

Ooze your self-esteem

There I was minding my own when the photo above leapt at me. It is a fabulous photo of a vineyard in the Barossa Valley, Australia.

So what I hear you ask, has it got to with Stormhoek?

There is no helping the daft ones….!

Ooze your daddy

The collapse last year of Orbital Wines, UK based distributor for South African wines abroad has serious economic impacts for the effected vineyards of the Western Cape’s Stormhoek locale. In total the vineyards have lost revenues amounting to R6,000,000. This is a very large amount of money for a labour intensive industry to kiss goodbye. There is no hope of a dividend from the liquidation of Orbital.

The economy for the region may be severley harmed, but the worst and saddest legacy of Orbital’s demise will be the human impact.

Vineyard workers will have to be laid off unless some quick & effective cash injections to contribute toward operational costs is found. Unlike the UK where if you get laid off work, you can make your way to the local Job Centre, sign on and get state benefits paid out to you each week, the vineyard workers like Manus, Maxwell and Ludwe (in main photo above), do not have the luxury and security of anything remotely like this to fall back on in the event they cannot earn a wage to keep their families fed, housed, clothed and the kids educated.

We are asking you to dig deep into your Big Love for SA wines and help keep the affected Western Cape vineyards operating. How? By buying a Stormhoek vine.

Own a vine. Save a job

Our days of sneaking off to cheap motels for a few hours R&R with the CFO’s pretty ‘n petite secretary are over.

Pushpa Pal Singh has had the unmitigated audacity to spill the beans to our women and show them how to read the signs that we men have been philandering like sneaky, doublecrossing, disreputable, two-timing coyotes on a hormone high amongst the vixens.

So I strongly urge all you men who have entertained the thought of getting some free carnal knowledge on the quiet with that pretty waitress or PA, to forget it. Just do not do it.

Your woman is now able to catch you out because she has learnt the tells. Your body cannot but help tell the truth while your devilish, scheming and coniving mouth utters the most reprehensible, lowdown, yellowbellied, scoundrel lies to the woman you love.

But as they say, knowing thine enemy makes a great deal of difference so read on if you want to learn which body bits tell the truth and so stand a chance to cover up your tracks by controlling them. Good luck old chap! Remember the phrase, “Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned”.

There are proven signs your partner will emit when he or she is in the midst of a naked lie. Read on to discover what these signs are and how you can use them right now to catch a cheating spouse…

You may not know that I am a qualified and licenced NLP Practitioner.

I can and do use hypnosis or deep states on myself to help enhance my development as a human being and can also use hypnosis on you (only with your permission and consent), to help you too to improve your skills and to also help you to gain an improved understanding of what you really can accomplish if you truly want to succeed at what you do.

Hypnosis is surrounded by myth and movie legend. And I have been telling anyone who will listen to not be afraid of hypnosis.

In the article below, Kevin Forrester debunks the old fishwives tales, secrets and myths that have kept hypnosis under a cloak of mystery for so long. Now you can read the truth about what hypnosis is and what good and great things it can do for you while you remain completely in control, fully aware of and helping to manage what you alone permit to happen.

OOZE goes global

I tried to stop blogging. I did. I think I gave it about as much effort as a fart in a trance needs in order to wake you up. Not a lot.

I am back. Cannot say it enthuses me. It is a daunting experience instead of the thrill I used to get from composing a piece. Can I regain lost ground and maintain the required energy to write something sensible from time to time?

Will I manage to produce the same volume of output? No. I doubt I have the will to generate so much.

But we will see. Baby steps hey?

Anyway - it is good to be here with you again. I did miss your company.

And yes I was creative while away. Last night I produced a short powerpoint slideshow. It is advertised in the sidbar. It is free to downoad.

I have collected together 10 of my favourite Oozetoons and put them together in a small easily downloadable file for you.

THE END of part one

Nearly everywhere we go we receive a relentless barrage of green mind-programming via “how to be green” leaflets, ‘we are a green corporation’ billboard adverts, green TV programmes, green TV News items and local green councillors berate us to recycle more of our refuse because the end of the world is nigh.

But the recycling trucks do not collect our special recycling bins/baskets with the seperated out plastic bottles, plastic containers, cellophane wrappers and other platic detrius. Instead they only collect paper and glass bottles.

Eskom did not heed good advice years ago to build more powerstations.

And so Namibia, Botswana, Zambia and Zimbabawe must also now suffer alongside South Africa’s population and industry for Eskom’s complete failings and myopia combined with their total lack of intelligent business/commercial insights and forecasting abilities for energy requirements to meet future population/industry growth.

It take 6-8 years to build and get a powerstation online producing energy for the national grid. What are they going to do about it - run a 3rd world country’s 1st world economy between power cuts?!

Guess what - the next exodus to Europe, Australia and America is about to begin.

ESKOM

Axel

Axel faced his final day like a dawg would - wagging his tail, tongue hanging out but meanwhile behind his eyes he knew something was wrong.

I shot the video below in September 2006.

Axel contracted throat cancer which spread like a bushfire to his stomach. He showed no signs of being in pain. He showed no signs that it was his final day, the final adventure. He went peacefully while still under anaesthetic.

Axel was a fine dog. He’ll be missed.

In Memory of Axel

If for nothing else other than becoming the first woman president of the United States of America, I hope Hillary sticks it to the rest of the presidential wannabes and gets elected.

It’ll be a double historic whammy. First female leader of America and first wife of a former president to get elected. It’ll be amazing if it happens.

And I think she is tough enough to lead the country forward and fix the appalling mess that idiot Bush has created. She has faced tough times and knows how to work alongside her former enemies.

Ooze Hillary Clinton
