…much appreciated.
Aquila pronounced AK-weh-lah, uh-KWILL-uh or even a-kee-laa, means eagle in Latin. Just like the eagle, this blog is my “bird’s eye view” on situations or topics that I happen to come across in my life.

A power failure has crippled the northern suburbs of Johannesburg. Yay for a loss of productivity. Not so good now that the workload is heaping up with every passing minute.
Not even the Jolly Roger is open for business. How our lives are so dependant on electricity. Now where is today Business Report for a dose of Soduku to kill the time?
PS: Another one of those pointless posts.
