The “Before” Picture

June 11th, 2004

I am in South Africa on business. It is beautiful country and my company has a great relationship with companies it does business with down here. Other than having the most unique AC power outlets (which seem to be incompatible with every other country), I adjust just fine to civilization down here. The food and personalities are just great.

One thing that takes me aback though is the level of crime. I haven’t experienced any problems personally so I am floored when I hear that they put GPS tracking devices on air conditioners in case they are stolen from cell towers. Oh, and in the interest of full disclosure, they note when a highway off ramp is less than ideal.

Note the size of the sign. I am 5'7"
