If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant. The easiest way to find something lost around the house is to buy a replacement. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway. There are two kinds of pedestrians the quick and the dead. Life is sexually transmitted. An unbreakable toy is useful for breaking other toys. If quitters never win, and winners never quit, then who is the fool who said "Quit while you're ahead?" Health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die. The only difference between a rut and a grave is the depth. If you love someone, tell them, cause if you don't, they're going to look elsewhere. Some people are like Slinkies: not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you see one tumble down the stairs. Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing. Whenever I feel blue ....I start breathing again. All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism. In the 60's, people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal. How is it one careless match can start a forest fire, but it takes a whole box to start a barbecue? ++++++++++++++++ NOTICES John and Jill Osborne Invite you and your friends to the launch of the book, A GUIDING SON on Thursday 19th August at 6.30pm at the Bulawayo Country Club.

The serial number is 282849. This piano played in the old VAUDEVILLE cinema in Umtali (now Mutare) when the first silent movies came out. It was obtained by the OLIVIER family when the Vaudeville closed down. It does not have the insides with it but is still playable although it is in need of a tuning and a bit of TLC. I am Maggie Clarke (nee Olivier) and you are able to contact me with any information on 241300 in the evenings or email nooinkie@ecoweb.co.zw Thank you and I hope there is someone out there that can help with some history. ++++++++ TUESDAY 17 AUGUST ~ 7.30 P.M.

Christians Together for Justice and Peace ++++++++++ Zim pensioners The Zimbabwe Pensioners' Association has been formed under the auspices of the Flame Lily Foundation of South Africa. We are at present compiling a database of Zimbabwe pensioners, both in order to attempt to alleviate the plights of those whose pensions have become worthless and are without alternative means of support, and to bring pressure on the Zimbabwe government to honour its pension obligations abroad. Many Zimbabwe pensioners, or their widows, reside in South Africa and most are in straitened circumstances. All made appropriate pension contributions during their working lives. They have been the casualty of hyper-inflation, a collapsed exchange rate, the drying up of foreign exchange and the loss of control of government finances. Non-government pension funds have become worthless and, even if significant pensions were payable, transfer has been blocked by the Zimbabwe Reserve Bank on the grounds of non-availability of foreign exchange. Government pension payments to South Africa have been honoured on a hit-and-miss basis in recent years but dried up completely in March 2003. Your assistance would be appreciated in reaching Zimbabwe or Rhodesian pensioners and annuitants, widows and others interested. They should write to the ZPA, P. O. Box 1884, Pinetown 3600, providing the following information: their full name, postal address, telephone number, e-mail address if available, pension fund, pension number, date of last payment received and last amount received (Zimbabwe dollars). If the Zimbabwean pensioner is critically in need of assistance, this should also be stated.

KEEPING YOU SAFE IN YOUR HOME (PART 2) • Outside lights are a deterrent to burglars, install as many as you can afford. • Dogs should sleep INSIDE the house. They are there to warn you, not save you, if outside they may well be poisoned and not be able to warn you. • Do not allow domestics or guards to have keys to the house. • Before opening the back door in the mornings, check that no one is lurking around outside, several robberies have happened at 0600hrs. • If going out for the evening, leave inside lights on and a radio or the TV. • If you have an electric fence, switch it ON when you got to work, not off!!! • Do not keep large amounts of money or any other valuables in home safes, it's the first thing the intruders ask for. They are also looking for cellphones and jewelry. • If you normally get home at lunchtime, try and vary the time occasionally. • If your dogs don't come and greet you on your return, be suspicious. • Install a metal grille across your verandah doors if you want to keep the doors open whilst you are sitting inside. • If you have a remote for your alarm system, hang it around your neck whilst you are home during the day, you may need assistance in a hurry. • Don't employ casual workers or any others for that matter before checking them out with the police. Word of mouth recommendations are usually safer. • Lock your cars at night even if they are in a locked garage. • Above all, if your suspect that there are intruders in your home at night, DO NOT GO AND INVESTIGATE. Try and get the family into one bedroom, lock yourselves in and use the phones to ring for help. If this fails, CO-OPERATE with the intruders, resisting or trying to fight back may endanger your life and that of your family. Most of these tips are recommended by Southern African law enforcement agencies and crime prevention organisations in South Africa and Zimbabwe. They are not to be reproduced from email without prior arrangement with the Anti Hijack Trust Zimbabwe. I also have a wish list below, as I know this goes out to a number of companies. The Trust is sponsored by the Private Sector, and I am sorry to say, that the Bulawayo Private Sector has hardly come forward to help the Trust in Bulawayo. So now it is up to you to help us in Bulawayo to keep this worthy organisation going, as over 100 families have benefited with care-giving and numerous members of public have been made very aware of the situation in Bulawayo regarding hijackings and house break-ins. Please help us out. My wish list is simple. I need someone to sponsor 1. the landline - usually up to $ 250 000-00 a month (before the new increase). 2. The cell phone - usually $ 60 000-00 a month. 3. Re-inking of computer ribbon for the office. 4. Donation of a new computer - my one is nearly finished with the screen playing up a great deal, and more capacity to do a database for Bulawayo and outlying areas. The next support group meeting for victims of hijacking and house break-ins is on the 17th August 2004. Please contact me for more details - we would love to see you there and give you the lift that you need.

In the condolences section you mention Jack Jacobs...he was my grandfather. My mother is Enid Jacobs. I now live in Australia and i barely had the chance to get to know any of my african relatives. Do you know anything of my family? Did you know my grandfather personally? Are you in contact with Rose, shaun and sharon? Any information you have would be excellent as i do not hear from them often and i am interested in learning anything you know about the jacobs family. You help will be much appreciated.
