Comment:

Many decades ago my friend Ronny the gun smith and wife used to go to S. Africa for 6 week vacations. And stay at his airline pilot friend’s house. Then his friends and wives used to stay at Ronny’s house for weeks too.

On occasion Ronny would invite my wife and I over for dinner. And we got the meet the two couples from S. Africa. This was all around the end of apartheid. A big reversal from minority white rule to majority black rule. They all seemed very amused by it all, saying…..Do they think they can run the country better than us?

Well? They must have been right, because as you suggested, here we are decades later and the country is already near being a basket case so this is another reversal of the past. After dinner Marie said “I’m stuffed” and the guests were amused because “getting Stuffed” was sex related in S.Africa.
