The literary Jedi, that is.

This morning I watched the most magnificent traffic jam building up in Kampala, from the Mulago roundabout all the way to the Uganda Wildlife Authority offices in Kitante.

It was so neat I suspected that Events Warehouse or Silk Events were putting it together. By the time I got to the junction at John Babiiha Avenue I was fighting the temptation to park somewhere and watch the progress.

If I were Chinese I’d probably have set up a betting table and posted odds on how far the jam would go. Then, I’d have gotten cronies to place bets on Bukoto, around Kabira Country Club.

Traffic Jam – Events Warehouse would do a better job

A little bit more entrepreneurship would have had me funding popcorn stands along the way for people to enjoy the show with snacks in hand.

Maybe tomorrow, perhaps?

Jambo (Hi)! I'd be happy to hear your thoughts so…say something here?
