About Me
Meet Joe Black
Joe Black was born in the summer of 1979, with Zimbabwe on the verge of total independence. Having missed the dreaded ‘born-free’ tag by mere months, he proceeded to grow into a fine upstanding citizen of the new democracy.
Right, enough bullshit. Joe Black is a resident of the bustling mahurepolis of Harare. A staunch supporter of Liverpool and Dynamos football clubs, he has had many a painful moment while watching these two teams play. This has helped mould him into a fine upstanding citizen of the new democra….*snip*!
Let’s try again. Joe Black is a fun-loving, sociable guy blessed with quick wit and a humorously sarcastic outlook on life in the new Zimbabwe. Having observed and experienced the ravages of economic decline, he has developed a marvellous, if slightly disquieting, ability to shrug off the depressing effects of the nation’s gradual descent into economic, and potentially political, chaos. This makes him a fine, upstanding citize….*cut*!!!!
Once again. Joe Black is a long-time patron of the Scud & Nanny, where he and his friends spend a great deal of time drinking beer, watching sport, shooting pool and engaging in long-winded (and often meaningless) conversations on everything from finances to women. He is not now, and has never been, an upstanding citizen of Zimbabwe!
