Izindaba

Inothi Lomhleli: Eminyakeni eminingi edlule ngahambela ukuqeqeshwa kobuntatheli e-Mauck-Stouffer e-Muscatine.Ukuqeqeshwa kwenzeke egumbini lenkomfa, manje elingaphesheya kwehholo lami.Isikhulumi esiqavile salokhu kuqeqeshwa ngumlobi wezindaba weQuad City Times uBill Wundrum.Wamamatheka umzimba wonke ngesikhathi ekhuluma negumbi eligcwele izintatheli ezisencane: “Kufanele sibatshele abaphathi bethu ukuthi sinomsebenzi ongcono kakhulu emhlabeni, kungenjalo ngeke bafune ukusikhokhela.”Intshiseko nothando lwakho kuyathelelana.Ngesonto eledlule, i-Quad Cities ilahlekelwe ngumbalisi wayo.Ngokuhlonipha uMnu. Wundrum, sizokhiqiza kabusha ikholomu yakhe yokugcina kusukela ngomhlaka-6 Meyi 2018, engiyitholile.Lala ngokuthula, Mr Wundrum.
“Ngidinga leli gumbi,” ngatshela umabhalane osemusha esitolo saseQuad-City.Iphethe ama-CD ethu amaningi futhi inamashalofu nezicabha zokuwagcina angawi yonke indawo.Futhi, intengo enhle: $99.95 uma kuqhathaniswa no-$125.95.
Ngadumala lapho umdayisi ethi, “Uxolo, awukwazi ukuyithenga.Kufanele uyikhiphe ebhokisini uzihlanganise ngokwakho.”
Kubize ngaphezu kwengxenye yenani lokuthenga ukuhlanganisa le khabhinethi ehhovisi lami.Ngakhetha ukulethwa ekhaya futhi ngabona ukuthi ngisho ingqondo yami yenkawu ingahlanganisa into elula njengekhabethe lezincwadi.
Futhi iqala kanjalo iphupho elibi esibhekana nalo kaningi kulezi zinsuku zangemva kweholide: “Umhlangano uyadingeka.”
Okwangethusa kakhulu kwakuyibhukwana elinamakhasi angu-8 elinesexwayiso: “Ungayi esitolo ukuze uthole izingxenye noma usizo lomhlangano.”
Angingabazi ukuthi kuzoba nezinkinga.Ngaphakathi kwebhokisi kunesikhwama sepulasitiki esiqukethe cishe amakhilogremu angu-5 ezikulufu, amabhawodi, nabakaki.Le ngxenye engaqondakali inamagama anjengezikulufu ze-hex, izikulufu ze-Phillips, amapuleti okuchibiyela, izigxivizo zekhamera, obakaki bepulasitiki be-L, izindlu zamakhamera, amadowels ezinkuni, izigxobo zokukhiya, nezinzipho ezilula.
Esabisa ngokulinganayo isaziso: "Ngenxa yezizathu zokusebenza kahle, ungathola ihadiwe eningi nezimbobo ezingasetshenzisiwe ekugcineni kwakho."Yayiyini leyo ngxoxo?
Nokho, isinyathelo sokuqala sangiqinisekisa: “Le fenisha kulula ukuyihlanganisa.Vele ulandele imiyalelo yesinyathelo ngesinyathelo.”Okudingayo nje i-screwdriver kanye ne-hex wrench (yini leyo?).
Konke lokhu kwangimangaza.Unkosikazi uyahlola ngezikhathi ezithile.Wayengithola nginezikulufu ze-hex, ngibubula kabuhlungu.Njengoba ungacabanga, lezi ziqondiso akuzona iziwula njengami."Khombisa imicibisholo yemizimba yekamera emigodini esekugcineni, uqinisekise ukuthi zonke izindikimba zamakhamera zisendaweni evulekile."
Ngakho ikhabethe lami seliqedile.Yinhle, iCD ibekwe kahle ngaphakathi kanye nomvini omncane phezulu.Kodwa unganginiki udumo ngalokhu.Phakathi kwamabili ngadela.Ngakusasa ngavakashela umbazi ochwepheshile.Kwamthatha amahora amabili nje kuphela, kodwa uyavuma, “Bekulukhuni kancane.”
Njengoba kungenzeka uye wafunda kulengcebo yamaqiniso ansuku zonke, ngikhathazeka ngokuthi amagciwane asakazeka ngezinga elimangalisayo lapho abantu bexhawulana.Ezinye izimpendulo:
“Siyabonga ngekholomu ekuxhawulane nemiphumela yako.Ngiyakuxwaya nokuxhawulana ngesikhathi somkhuhlane.Ukuxhawulana kubonakala kuseMelika kakhulu kimi.Ngincamela indlela yaseJapan yokubingelela ngokukhothama - shiya ibanga elilodwa Elinethezekile,” kusho u-Becky Brown wase-East Moline.
“Hhayi, mhlawumbe kufanele sikhothame sodwa.Isebenza kubantu base-Asia,” kusho uMary Thompson enanela imizwa kaBecky Brown.
kumbhishobhi.“Njengoba kunabakhulekeli abangu-2,500 abavakashela njalo ngeSonto, sincoma ukuthi ukuxhawulana nokubonisana ngokuthula kumiswe kuze kube esinye isaziso,” kusho umfundisi uRobert Schmidt weBandla elinobungani i-St. Anthony edolobheni laseDavenport.
