...power cuts bak home!..

A man dies and goes to hell. There he finds that there
is a different hell for each country. He decides he'll
pick the least painful to spend his eternity. He goes
to Germany Hell and asks, "What do they do here?"

He is told "first they put you in an electric chair
for an hour. Then they lay you on a bed of nails for
another hour. Then the German devil comes in and whips
you for the rest of the day". The man does not like
the sound of that at all so he moves on. He checks out
the USA Hell as well as the Russia Hell and many more.
He discovers that they are all similar to the German
hell.

Then he comes to the Ugandan Hell and finds that there
is a long line of people waiting to get in. Amazed, he
asks, "What do they do here?" He is told "first they
put you in an electric chair for an hour. Then they
lay you on a bed of nails for another hour. The
Ugandan devil comes in and whips you for the rest of
the day. "But that is exactly the same as all the
other hells why are there so many people waiting to
get in?" asks the man. "Because of load shedding and
the low-levels of water at the power stations there is
never any electricity, so the electric chair does not
work. Because of high corruption and poor procurement
systems, the nails were paid for but have never been
supplied, so the bed is comfortable to sleep on. And,
on top of it, the Ugandan devil used to be a civil
servant, so he comes in, signs his time sheet and goes
back ‘home’ to read newspapers, serf the internet and
do other private businesses." There is no beating
here, it is as comfortable as ‘heaven’
