A dude from Durban walked into a curio shop in Cape Town whilst on holiday.

Looking around at the exotica, he noticed a very life-like, life-size bronze statue of a rat. It had no price tag, but it looked so striking that he decided he must have it. He took it to the owner and asked "How much is the bronze rat?"

"Twelve rand for the rat, a hundred rand if you bring it back," said the owner.

The man gave the shop owner twelve rand. "I'll take the rat; And I won't be bringing it back."

As he walked down the street carrying the bronze rat, he noticed theta few real rats had crawled out of alleys and sewers, and began following him down the street. This was a bit disconcerting, so he began to walk a little bit faster. Within a couple of blocks, the group of rats behind him grew to over a hundred, and they began squealing.

He started to trot towards the harbour. He took a nervous look around and saw that the rats numbered in the thousands, maybe in the millions, and they were all squalling and coming towards him faster and faster.

Terrified, he ran to the edge of the water and threw the bronze rat as far out into the harbour as he could.

Amazingly, the millions of rats all jumped into the water after it, and were drowned.

The man walked back to the curio shop.

"Aha," said the owner, "You're bringing it back !"

"Actually no," said the man. "I came back to see how much you want for that little bronze ANC politician over there....."

On a recent trip to the United States, Julius Malema, President of the African National Congress Youth League, addressed a major gathering of Red Indians.

He spoke for almost an hour on his plans for South Africa.

At the conclusion of his speech, the crowd presented him with a plaque inscribed with his new Indian name - Walking Eagle.

A very chuffed Malema then departed in his motorcade, waving to the crowds.

A news reporter later asked one of the Indians how they came to select the new name given to Malema.

They explained that Walking Eagle is the name given to a bird so full of shit that it can no longer fly.
