Pkemp phoned:  

Kemp:  "Hey what's up?"

Roux:  "Hey where are you?"

"In Brazil."

"Aren't you in jail?  In CUBA?"

"Oh that, yeah, too much pure Bolivian coke will do that to you."

"How did you escape?"

"Nah it was a misdemeanor, they tried to deport me but I just headed South instead.  But look, the reason I called is I heard some stuff…"

"What?"

"Don't take that tone with me man!"

"Look here man, I'm busy, get to the point."

"What's happening over there, I mean politically, I heard some strange shit…"

"Yeah, it is getting nasty, Thabo resigned taking most of the ministers with him.  It is tribal man, it is starting.  The split is along ethnic lines, Zulus vs Xhosas.  No one is saying anything but that is pretty much what is happening.  Also all the guys who started the UDF are sticking together."

"Is that all?"

"Nah, they are taking the willing buyer willing seller clause out of the land redistribution processes to speed up transformation, and they are also restructuring parliament next year."

"The ANC is restructuring parliament?  Is that legal?"

"All depends if they get two thirds majority in the ballot."

"Is that all?"

"Nah, you still owe me (kemp drops the call) two months rent and a manuscript."  Ah fuckit.
