Hello again from Skakuza. This is Christina and Steve reporting almost live from inside the infamous KNP. Our headline tonight is the jail break from Skakuza. Five men, all with names I cannot pronounce escaped from detention inside Skakuza police station....no we had no idea there was a detention area in Skakuza...now we will obey those speeding laws...of course if we are detained it appears we can always escape. Anyway, these bad guys were being held for poaching a black rhino inside the park. They were field guides-NATIONAL PARK EMPLOYEES!! Can you believe it. The rhinos are being poached for their horns to sell to some s***head to go black market to other s***heads that want them for dagger handles in Yemen. Hope the bad guys were eaten by lions during their escape. Oh, another rhino news flash....another esteemed KNP employee was sited for driving high speed into a rhino on the road during the evening while trying to make his way home in good time...oops. The rhino is said to be injured but has not been located. Next in news.... Steve: picture the monkies taken by Christina, make them to be cute and cudly BUT they raid your fridges, they threaten people and are an absolute nusance. Our nice neighbors have been raided on several occassions. We tie our fridge door down with a ratchet strap and make sure all food stuff etc is put away. We are in urgent need of wristrockets. Essential culinary breaking news.... We FINALLY recieved the long awaited White Truffle Oil (enter moving organ music). Since we have been let down on numerous occassions on other numerous fronts, no need to mention names....ehem, family, we dared to order from a local source in Cape Town. They DO NOT have the Extra Virgin Olive Oil we still seek, however, they do have a reasonable truffle oil that takes a mere 10 days, 3 different courries, countless phone calls, and mass confusion before arrival and even then our postal guy couldn't find the package...that was right infront of him. Thrilling news, I know! Steve: Extraordinary luck when researching our fig/figwasp relationship we located the email address of a Steve Compton at Leed's University in England. On the spur of the moment we decided to email him a recent photograph of an aegonid (wasp) with the ovipositor firmly inside a syconia. To our suprise he replied promptly with obvious interest. Further research discovers that he is THE world authority fig/fig wasp relationships and he has kindly offered to help us! DId you know there are lizards that eat fruit and beetles that eat seeds? Me: SO cool, huh? Really! I think we are making some headway, although research is slow...it is steady as we trudge on.... Check out the new pix!
