"[log in to unmask],"

One of Uncle Sidi's (NOT Morro) "backers" here!  With this message, I
commiserate with Uncle Sidi on his firing.  I must admit that I almost choked over a
bagel this morning upon hearing about his firing.  As for his legacy, his
short-lived tenure notwithstanding, time will certainly tell!  All the best of
luck, Uncle, in your future endeavours.

Your Favourite Nephew,
Madiba (hehehehe)

A question for "[log in to unmask]"... Are you sure that Uncle Sidi was
fired because of misappropriation of public funds as you indicated below?
Inquiring minds want to know. Thanks.

Madiba.
