Can you imagine listening in to someone’s conversation and being chaffed that you could influence the decision? I think that would make life a little more interesting than waiting for a sign – just buzz on the person's ear and get it over an done with!
I thought about this fly-biz and decided that it would have been instrumental to be a fly with responsibilities at these times:
When Andile Carelse thought “Blonde! That’s the look I need for the next decade. Now, THIS is an excellent idea.” I have nothing against the look but I feel it has been too long on her head – a change would be welcomed. Now as a fly with fly-responsibilities I would have told her that she could try but admit to herself when the “look” has lost its “looksness”
When Sdaka and GIRL finally met to discuss the events of THAT weekend; I would have buzzed to GIRL’s ears and said “Let him speak until the noose is too tight around his neck then ask him everything you want to know”
When Richard had the talk with his wife Ricki and eventually broke the news to Tatiana... Need I say more! The big brother effect needed me to see, hear and know.. fly around and just observe
When Shugs was in Naija and agreed to spent the night with some chicks. On fly-duty, I would not have said a word but would have observed how this decision was made… considering the state of the room that was required to be shared already!
When Chilli and Usher broke up, when Angelina and Brad hooked up, when Justin and Janet rehearsed for the famous superbowl and when Justin and Cameron broke up – Oooooooh! Fly-biz and responsibilities would have been completely forgotten as I buzzed around to irritate them. 
I still wonder why those that broke up or hooked up did – well, no-one is saying anything!
When Phat Joe conceptualized jokes about Felicia Mabuza-Suttle and her response to seeing or hearing the things… Eish! Fly-responsibilities and fly-biz would dictate that I show them how to milk that idea out and get more moola! I still think a Phat Joe and Felicia talk show is conceivable – she brings her “class” and he brings his “fun”….
When the xenophobic attacks started; home affairs and safety and security departments were in the firing line for their handing of the whole issue I wanted fly-duty into the Nqakula household. What did this couple and ministry couple agree to say to the world and how they said it? – I hope the talk went along the lines of “Damn! Sweetheart Charlie, we effed up, neh!? My department can’t cope with the influx and now yours has to fix my mess! Eish! Ya neh, we are not really effective but who gives a ish – we are ministers and our weights and figures is all we have to show for it. Serves them right for voting for us” As fly on duty, I would have buzzed on their ears “Maybe you need to re-look this weight and personal balance stuff and get a leadership course on being an effective leader.
At the same time, I would have had fly-duty at the Mbeki and Mandela households – In the Madiba home, I would comfort Graça and insist she makes a statement as she was there when her late husband housed South African foreigners to her country, Mozambique. I would insist that she gives an account of her experience when the apartheid government started a civil war in her country simply because her husband was fighting for the South African people’s rights and how it impacted the economy therefore giving rise to what is happening now in her country and her current husband’s country. I would then insist that she tells Madiba to call Mbeki and tell him to make a formal speech on radio or tv and stop pretending nothing wrong in her country is happening.
So when have you felt – “I so wish I was there!”
