Gaddafi is Right

[Nairobi (Kilimani), Kenya]
GREETINGS FROM Olive Salon next door to the Valley Arcade Shopping Centre in Kilimani where my good pal Sarah Mwangi (expert in Beauty, Body Treatments and Reflexology) has just relocated from the Sanctuary in Lavington. You’re not gonna believe this, but the owner of that spa got pissed at her for having a bloody website – and sacked her. How selfish!!

Well, the Middle Eastern owner of Olive Salon, Sophie, is sooo super kool. By the way, she makes a great cup of Arab coffee. Oh, I just set up Safaricom’s super fast 3G broadband Internet service on Sophie’s slooow Compaq Pentium-3 system so I decided to cruise the Net for just a teeny little bit to see how 3G’s working over here. Also, I’m a bloody web whore. :-)

God damn it!!!! I just downloaded Mozilla Firefox 3.5 (7.7MB) in like less than a minute. Okay, so 3G is fast in Kilimani, too, I guess. Way to go Safaricom!! You definitely are the BETTER “data” option…but not for voice. Zain wins that battle hands down! :-)

Anyhow, I saw these links, read em, and I agree wholeheartedly with Colonel Gaddafi of Libya. The biggest problem with Africa is its disunity. One voice, one union, one government is the key to her prosperity. Of course, the West would be terrified to see Africa united. Trust me! But I don’t think most Kenyans (or the continent’s citizens) really see the big picture. I blame its leaders, and their selfish interests for this. Tell me what you think:

Okay, back to setting up Olive Salon’s website. I’ll post the link later!

Ciao!
