I love reading The Herald - I maintain a portal that has to stay up-to-date with latest news, so when they update their website, I have to read it.

Today, I actually bought the print version (for the classifieds; long story). And in the spirit of sharing, thought I’d highlight a couple of interesting things.

EIGHT women believed to be cross-border traders were last Thursday night robbed and stripped naked in Marondera by four suspected men who had offered them a lift from Forbes Border Post in Mutare.

Did you notice that? Four suspected men. Not four male suspects. Or even just four men. Four suspected men. Now, if we’re suspecting these criminals of being men, they must have had serious wardrobe issues. Or they could have been disguised as buxom mielie ladies, a la Leon Schuster. I now have this vision of cross-dressing hardcases terrorising the poor folks of Marondera. English lessons, Herald. English.

It just felt so good to see Coventry and her teammates Hill, Brand and Felgate getting on the floor, dancing to Tuku and Mukanya’s music.

So not only was this guy so very chuffed at being in Beijing (with the First Lady, apparently); the sight of white people dancing to Oliver and Thomas, well … you’d think he could have dedicated some of this breathless coverage to the entire Games, not just the final gig. Eh? oh.

O Zimpapers. You entertain me, you do.
