RAGE - In addition to his column in a well-known Cape Town newspaper, 
Rozzano

Everybody who thought that GETO 3000 was only a monthly hiphop gig where
BIG DRE plays as a deejay - think again. Dre is puttin' shit down like mad.
In addition to his "HEADWARMERS" radio show, he's also the force behind the
GETO 3000 website - get wit dat at:

LAUGH YOUR ASS OFF

A young boy on his way home from school must pass by a group of hookers.
Everyday as he passes them, the hookers wave at him with their pinkies
and say, "Hi there little boy!"

One day the boy stops and asks one of the hookers why they always wave
at him with their pinkies. They reply, "Well, that is what size we
imagine your penis to be... it is just a joke!"

The next day on his way home, the hookers repeat the tradition. The
young boy stops and drops his school books on the ground, sticks all his
fingers in his mouth to stretch his lips very wide and says, "HI THERE
LADIES!


He needs to go on a business trip for several days, so he
decides to set a trap for her. He puts a bowl of milk under
the bed. From the bed springs, he suspends a spoon. He has
it calibrated so her weight on the bed will not drop the
spoon into the milk. But, if there is any more weight than
that, the spoon will drop into the milk and he will detect
it upon his return home.

He comes home several days later. The first thing he does is
reaches under the bed and retrieves the bowl.

The bowl is full of butter....

FEEDBACK

I've been receiving regular updates and I'm very impressed. 18/6 issue was 
cool
especially the poem. It's honest and true. Keep up the good work. And I 
suggest
maybe having something like "10 Questions" with people involved in hip hop 
and so
forths, radio D.J's, artists, sound crew, film ect. Shit should be good.

I'm Out!

ED: HAMISH. YOUR WISH WILL BE GRANTED.. SOON..



I'm a darkie.. and your stuff made me sit up.. cos I
could identify (is that the right word??) with the stuff you had in
your mail.....
What made me sit up? The poem on mlau (sp?).. and the bits and pieces
of info..
Also the comment on TKZ.. most SA journos are LAZY.. they wanna do
telephonic interviews.. and rely on press releases from record
companies.. and so all the articles on our local peeps.. recycle the
same old same old... I get bored.. if an profile doesnt catch me in the
intro.. with something fresh.. I'm gone.....
I found your take fresh...
