Sat, 11 May 2012 13:44 GMT http://www.georgeherald.com/viewblog.aspx?bid=529 Onlangs luister ek na"n fassinerende dog skrikwekkende praatjie oor sosiale netwerke. Skrikwekkend omdat ek toe eers besef dat ek eintlik"old school' is, alhoewel ek steeds botweg weier om te aanvaar dat baie van die"twenties-somethings' in ons dorp aandring om vir my"tannie' te se. Ek het net nou d... Sat, 11 May 2012 09:05 GMT http://www.georgeherald.com/viewblog.aspx?bid=528 Even bananas have 'domestic problems'! Hope this makes you smile! ...

Ek kan sien hy het genoeg gehad van wat ookal hoewel ek kan raai van "wie" ookal. Die oggend het so rustig begin.

Wed, 8 May 2012 20:03 GMT http://www.georgeherald.com/viewblog.aspx?bid=525 Challenging those you lead to do something they didn't think they could do may be your most important task as a leader. If the people you're leading are only doing what they can do in their own power, they are living faithlessly because what they do does not require faith. By helping those in you... Tue, 7 May 2012 11:54 GMT http://www.georgeherald.com/viewblog.aspx?bid=524 I was paging through a copy of 'Longevity' and was struck by the views of Rich Mulholland's on love. Love, a subject that has been written about, sung about and pondered since the beginning of time. Reading between Mulholland's lines, I wondered if he may have 'lost' a love recently which may...

Volgens hulle was my belangstellings nog altyd net te eksoties vir"n plattelandse meisie. Jy sien, dit het alles begin met TV en die kragtige indrukke wat die massamedia op my kinderlike gemoed gelaat het. Destyds, midde-in my vroee adolossensie toe ek sk...

One of the major difference between a consumer digital camera and a digital Single Lens Reflex (dSLR) is that the consumer cameras produces images with more noise when using high ISOs (sensitivity to light) and long...

En ek se dit weer: verskeie dieet-planne, dieet-middele en wat nog het ek nou al gevolg. Ek eet gesond, met net so hier en daar"n uitsondering van"n bakkie Jan-Fouche poeding met roomys of roo...

Ek het altyd gedink dis"n gesegde wat verduidelik waarom sommige mense as vreemd beskou word. Maar, hoe meer ek egter oor politiek leer en hoe meer ek lees van wanadmini...
