Going the long way around I see

#1 Post by Spock » Mon Sep 22, 2014 12:48 pm

From an email regarding my trophy shipments>>>We have at last got the South African transit permit so these trophies are going on the freighter on Thursday to Johannesburg.<<<<

I hope they have a different definition of "Freighter" than I do.

Freighter from Bulawayo (in landlocked Zimbabwe) to Johannesburg (far from any ocean) ???????

I'd say the people in Hong Kong were smart enough to get as far away from those giant hornets as possible.

I think what's going on here is some slick diversion. Obviously CNN has a big portion of the hornet audience and they are just trying to confuse them on where all the action is.
