Posting from the UK using NTL, I'd be pissed too.

I think that this poster is living in the past - rather a distant
past, actually. 1986.

It's an amusing song, though. You can see the video here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=de6V90jT4SQ

The Lyrics are:

"
I've travelled this old world of ours from Barnsley to Peru
I've had sunshine in the arctic and a swim in Tinbuktu
I've seen unicorns in Burma and a Yetti in Nepal
And I've danced with ten foot pygmies in a Montezuma hall
I've met the King of China and a working Yorkshire miner
But I've never met a nice South African.

No he's never met a nice South African
And that's not bloody surprising man
'Cause we're a bunch of arrogant b***tards
Who hate black people

I once got served in Woolies aften less than four week's wait
I had lunch with Rowan Atkinson when he paid and wasn't late
I know a public swimming bath where they don't piss in the pool
I know a guy who got a job straight after leaving school
I've met a normal merman and a fairly modest German
But I've never met a nice South African.

No he's never met a nice South African
And that's not bloody surprising man
'Cause we're a bunch of talentless murderers
Who smell like baboons

I've had a close encounter of the twenty-second kind
That's when an alien spaceship disappears up your behind
I got directory enquiries after less than forty rings
I've even heard a decent song by Paul McCartney's Wings
I've seen a flying pig in a quite convincing wig
But I've never met a nice South African.

No he's never met a nice South African
And that's not bloody surprising man
'Cause we're a bunch of ignorant loudmouths
With no sense of humour - ha ha

I've met the Loch Ness monster and he looks like Fred Astaire
At the BBC in London he's the chief commissionaire
I know a place in Glasgow which is rife with daffodillies
I met a man in Katmandu who claimed to have two willies
I've had a nice pot noodle but I've never had a poodle
And I've never met a nice South African.

No he's never met a nice South African
And that's not bloody surprising man
Because we've never met one either
Except for Breyten Breytenbach and he's emigrated to Paris. (farts)

Yes he's quite a nice South African
And he's hardly ever killed anyone
And he's not smelly at all.
That's why they put him prison.
"

Sarah's IP address goes back to the Hertfordshire County Council.
Putting the words /hertfordshire sarah firth/ into google reveals that
she is a trained hypnotherapist. I have only the highest regard for
trained hypnotherapists. That and dry wit. But mostly trained
hypnotherapists.

Amateur hypnotherapists do less damage than amateur surgeons. Usually,
anyway, maybe it was an amateur hypnotherapist that got the Shrub out
of bars which was a considerably more damaging achievement than any
amateur surgeon has managed.

I spent six months in South Africa and to my pleasant surprise, my
experience was just the opposite, almost all South Africans I met,
especially the blacks, were nice and did not outwardly show resentment
against all whites ( I am "white" and an American). I did get robbed
once, but because of all the other positive experiences I did not let
that one negative experience bring me down on SA. This is why I am so
shocked to read and see all the "xenophobic" violence currently going
on.

Now that's impressive! I didn't think that there was anybody who would
argue in favour of the invasion of Iraq!

Admittedly, as has been pointed out, most Yanks are against it not
because they realise what an evil thing it was, but because they don't
like all the dead Yanks being posted back home in body bags. But then
you wouldn't expect them to grok the moral dimension.

There are, though, I agree, similarities between the Shrub and Mbeki -
Saddam Hussein was a Yank creation, a puppet that lost his strings,
just as our tyrant has been supported by Mugabe. I'm not sure that
Mbeki is an ex-alcoholic, though, and I'm not sure that he is quite as
simple-minded and aggressive as the little Yank shit.

South Africans are pleasant people for the most part. The current
instability is, however, a sad indictment on us as a people.  I am
deeply ashamed of my country at the moment.
