The crew on the Star Ship Enterprise faced this dilemma quite often, when Captain Kirk wanted to get more juice out of his starship, but alas all that Scotty could do was to respond, “I’m giving her all she’s got Cap’in, I can’t make her go any faster.”

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.

Anyhow, my response to the questions posed by it is the question as follows:

Three screen names I’ve had: Aquila, Aquila_SA, Wildboar
Three things you like about yourself: Confidence in my ability to do great things, good genes, adaptable in any situation
Three things I don’t like about myself: over analysing this question

Three of my favorite songs: Melissa Etheridge – I want to come over, U2 – With or Without You, Karma – One day Soon

Three things I can’t do without: Mind, body, spirit
Three places you want to go on vacation: Maldives, Swiss Alps, Machu Picchu
Three things you just can’t do: Buy all the DVD’s on earth, pass on a Wimpy hashbrown, play pro rugby
