After 1976, it's a bit late for more


So, on 5 January 1976 the Powers That Be finally caved in and allowed television to be broadcasted freely, provided you were white.

Dstv came in only after apartheid ended and now finally, we will have a competitor for them as well.

I am not promoting them, but head over to ondigitalmedia.co.za (ODM) to see what they are about - they are the first to start challenging MultiRepeat.

Perhaps that is why the good folks over at Dstv started floating the idea of a dedicated porn channel, which I will promote, the more the merrier.

And before I get blasted, one of the licenses approved at the same time as ODM was for Walking On Water, a dedicated Christian service. So if you are too goody-two-shoes to admit peeking at the naughty now and then, you can switch over without having to froth at the mouth about paying extra to satisfy your carnal desires.

Now that I got that out of the way, what is your thoughts?

Would you switch over, considering that at half the cost you get as much?

ho-prah

been watching ho-prah on her new time slot as the girlfriend switches the tv on at that time, so definately not through choice.

but based on what i have seen, i want to ask the question: what makes her so different from a prostitute?

imagine the scene; a scantily dressed woman on the corner, talking loud, trying to get your attention, giving you some come-on lines to generate interest...getting familiar?

truth be told, she is an attention whore.

the whole world knows about her weight struggles and what does she do? put before and after photos on the front of the magazine, cleverly named after herself. thus everyone can wallow and share in her misery.

'but find out more, directly after the break...'

and then it turns nasty, covering subjects such as molestation and drug abuse with visuals comparable to rotten.com.

i think what bothers me is that with all her millions she seems to have run out of decent afternoon fun material and is focusing on the bad and terrible. but, hey! this is what entertainment is all about!

and when you can't get away with selling yourself (hi, big boy...as she surreptitiously show a bit of flesh), you have to sell with the freaky and gory details.

'this show contains graphic images intended for a mature audience.'

the sad thing is that she hasn't flashed the public yet, so at least we have something to look forward to...
