Isn't it amazing how Kenyan politicians and bureaucrats have become profligate with our tax money? Recently they have proposed to give a hefty compensation package to the wives of Vice President Kalonzo Musyoka and Prime Minister Raila Odinga for their labour of love, the hardship of living on the public purse in palatial houses and hosting grand bashes, and the inconvenience of free first-class travel around the world, all in a dubious endeavour to enhance Kenya's image. For all these, we will be priviledged to pay them Kshs. 2,160,000 each over the next four-and-a-half years. This is in addition to huge travel allowances and the salaries they currently enjoy at their respective jobs. This year, President Kibaki's wife received a salary increment (she's now paid almost Kshs. 6M per year) for her supposedly expanded duties inspite of the fact that she is rarely seen in public. Talk of gold diggers!! In comparison, a gold medal winner at the recent Olympics in Beijing will receive a paltry Kshs. 750,000 for his/her four years of hard work.

Do you believe in good luck?

I believe if you are kind and thoughtful, at some point you will get some in return. Im too kind/soft and do lots of things for nothing, but it was my sweet and dearest friend telling me today she would pay me for something she knows I would do for free, that made me stop and think. Is it all about money? Not really, Im busting my ass off to earn cash for a new lense, and I know when I do eventually get that, there will be something else.
Yet I dont like being materialistic, but I want stuff. How does that work?

Ive done some kind deeds this week, and if you were one of the people who did one back to me, Im super grateful and happy. And hope that your share of kindness in whatever way you recognise comes back to you very soon.

Ewwwww have you thrown up yet??? My apologies.
