- He talked about townships and that they don't go there at night because everyone burns their garbage ( no garbage collection) and they would smell like bonfire. He gets to hear Bob Marley being played and says I probably enjoy it more than I should. His apartment is small. There is just the two of them. There are 100 in the building. They are on the 2nd story. All the houses are cinder block with barbed wire and glass around perimeter. There are police men with armored cars and machine guns everywhere. The crime is mostly with the blacks and racism is common.

- He doesn't mean to be ungrateful but everyone sends him Swedish fish...variety is nice.
