Mugabe and his pals, and the willful annihilation annihilationIn physics, a reaction in which a particle and its antiparticle (see antimatter) collide and disappear. The annihilation releases energy equal to the original mass m multiplied by the square of the speed of light c, or E = m of the nation's agricultural sector. Some foreign exchange was eventually located between sofa cushions in the presidential mansion, and Air Zimbabwe is now in the air again. Given the state of the country, though, we can't help wondering who would be brave enough to fly in its planes. |
