...to Namibia. The strangest place on the planet I've ever had the chance ta visit.
While I was there, for independence (From South Africa) Frederik De Klerk brought the SA flag down, and Sam Nujoma raised the newly independant flag of the newest nation in the world. It was March 21st., 1990.
This clip can't begin ta cover Namibia's entirety. The country is huge. It runs ta stark mountais, red sand dunes (in the clip) and an amazing coast where elephants play in the surf!
I gotta go back! (Ta visit!) Admittedly my Afrikans is rusty, but I have my dictionary ta this day!
Afrikaaners are stra... Different. English is theOFFICIAL language since independance. But German, Afrikans, and about 10 major African tongues are spoken by a widely divergent populace. Unfortunately the clip is in Afrikans.

This clip, almost a movie actually, might be best watched off-site. National Geographic put this together. And I don't know when, but it says a whole lot mare about the place than I could ever do.
I've been there twice. And I've driven it south ta north, all the way north inta Angola, and ta Botswana.
And then ta South Africa from Windhoek, and took a canoe trip down the Orange River ta the coast.
Ya gotta see the place, ta believe it!

Think Tony Bourdain did a "Cook's Tour" or a "No Reservations" show from Namibia and I think I recorded that show.

Which leads us to believe that Uke wasn't really born in the US. I demand to see the birth certificate.

This leaves me to believe that he isn't qualified to be a SMOD. I am sure it is written in the BJ constitution that you have had to been born in North America. That means Canada, the US or Mexico.
