About Me:

A renowned South African Sangoma, Dr Roof was previously employed by the Public Works Department in charge of roofing repairs, but has since been retrenched due to his lack of BEE (Black Economic Empowerment accreditation. He has his own agony column
which is currently under investigation, but will be online again soon when things calm down.

In the meantime Dr Roof is trying to behave himself on www.whyi'msocranky.blogspot.com

Two-wheeled morons

I don't need to set my alarm clock any more, as I get woken every morning by the sound emanating from the chrome penis extension that finds itself attached to super bikes.

Were we duped by the media? (about Oscar)

Much has been written about the Oscar Pistorius saga, and much will still be written. I have pretty much read all that can be read in the papers and magazines

Is there a difference between the NP and the ANC?

Every day that goes by we move closer to that dark oppressive time that the country experienced under the National Party.

Irate Muslims must take a chill pill

So someone made a movie about Mohammed, and that means that you have to go out and take it out on people who had absolutely nothing to do with making the movie?

Sounds of violence (the South African version)

Sounds of Violence. Tthe South African version to the tune of Simon & Garfunkel's Sounds of Silence.

Christians who impose their will on others

I don’t want to get into the debate over whether God exists or not. I believe that topic has and will be addressed ad infinitum.

South Africans are stupid

A few years back I read a statistic that said that the average South African IQ was 70, but I've also read another saying it's over a hundred.

We must ALL join the ANC!

As much as we like violence and all the excitement that goes with it, there is another way to take this country back.

I'm not racist, but...

If I had a rand for every time I've heard this, I'd be sitting on some exotic island sipping Pina Coladas.

Presidential head removed!

Before anyone gets too excited, this is not about some faction of the ANC getting rid of President Zuma, but the continuing drama of "The Spear".

Drivers who remove their licence plates are criminals

While I find the campaign against drunk driving commendable, I wonder why an equally despicable crime has not been addressed.
