I knew there was something suspicious about Desmond Tutustein.

Same with Nelson Mandelaberg.

Could have sworn he died in the 90s.

Hello,

South Africa has such a complicated past. There are still boers who want the apartheid state brought back, there are blacks who want whites exterminated, there are many (most?) who want a rainbow coalition. When I would go to South African parties, I would often be the only white person in the room - without fail, there would be many people who came up and spoke with me trying to make me feel comfortable. They were happy a white person came to mingle. My wife fears Musk brings back apartheid policies - whether it's blacks, Hispanics, ot other ethnic groups, we need someone to boss around, blame, and dominate. I'm not sure why I'm posting this - perhaps for the fact that I was so accepted by a different ethnic group so easily.

Great post in any case, thanks for sharing it

According to my crossword puzzle this morning, locals call St. Louis "The Lou." Is this actually true?

Not really - kind of jokingly these days, if anything. Nelly (the rapper) kind of started that trend and it caught on for awhile.

That's a relief. That is the velveeta and ketchup on a cracker of nicknames.
