It’s for me…

Posted on 22 July 2009 | No responses

I have a friend who goes by the name of Being Brazen – she’s a real sweetie but she can’t seem to stay away from me, stalker material seriously, but I put up with it. She puts out a post every once in a while called ‘Current Addictions‘ where she lists certain things she’s into right now. Here are my responses (click on the links for pictures, seems there’s a bug in Wordpress that doesn’t let me upload, this will be rectified soon):

Song of the moment: Boy1904 – Jonsi & Alex

Drink of Choice: Long Island Ice Tea - cocktail party tonight!

Word of the week:FRAK!” (’FUCK’ from Battlestar Gallatica)

Right now I totally want: To get off this fucking Island and back pack like I was meant to be doing a year ago!

If you could be anywhere right now: The Icelander’s log cabin in the Akronos mountains in western Iceland… The most peaceful place I have ever visited, with the darkest night I’ve ever slept under.

Snack I’m craving: A Peach… I could eat a peach for hours…

Current Celeb Crush: Lily Allen… who else…

There you go BB, sorry for the delay!

Funky Sock Fri-Five Friday!

Posted on 17 July 2009 | 1 response

We have quite an eccentric new Managing Director in our office, he is an absolute legend (sorry if I’m not making sense, had a boozy Friday lunch) and I like to call him the New MD. Anyway, he wears likes to roll up his trouser hems up high enough so you can see his socks. It’s quite odd in the beginning but it’s growing on me strangely. Well, in celebration we in the office have decided to have Funky Sock Friday every week… Well, as you can see, I won again today!

_Device Memory_home_user_pictures_IMG00034-20090717-1518 - I win! –

You will notice the new plimsoles I bought last night – with the little Springbok embroided in there…. You like? Of course you do!!!

Fri-Five bitches!!!

I love you, and I love Guiness!

Denise Is Making Sense Finally…

Posted on 17 July 2009 | No responses

Let’s give my favourite Bond girl a second here to voice her magnificent opinion…

- That’l do just fine baby -

The Sun:

Bond girl gets friendly in hotels


DENISE RICHARDS likes to check in to hotels for casual sex with pals.

The stunning Bond Girl, who has been single since her split from CHARLIE SHEEN in 2005, would rather have romps with “friends with benefits” than find a new man.

“You don’t want to bring them home to your house, but I have certain needs,” she admitted to US mag Globe.

“Friends with benefits are awesome. I used to be like, ‘Oh no, you have to be in a relationship.’

“But after going through a divorce, I’m like, ‘Life is short, I wanna have a good time.’”

She’s always been right up there in my Top 5… A list, on second thought, I should release on you all very soon…

Google Wave…

Posted on 17 July 2009 | 4 responses

I got sent this link yesterday and I must say, Google Wave looks pretty impressive… Say good bye to losing any mail in your Outlook… Say good bye to hiding behind your office monitor and waiting for 5:30pm… Enjoy, as you watch your Facebook hours silently begin fading away…

Fuckers will rue the day!

Clouds Are Gathering…

Posted on 15 July 2009 | No responses

That’s not a metaphor, serioulsy, clouds are just getting really dark outside my office… I didn’t mean anything by it, not like ’something wicked this way comes’… No siree… it looks like rain outside – lucky the O2 Arena is a covered venue… I’d hate to get rained on while I’m watching Mew…

or heaven forbid we’d have to watch Jane’s Addiction under an umbrella…

I would literally curse the sky if it were to piss on me during the set of Nine Inch Nails…

No, that wouldn’t be nice at all…

Take care minions, this is my last gig for a while… Ill have to start thinking of real things to write about after tonight… DOH!!

Film Review: Public Enemies

Posted on 14 July 2009 | 10 responses

Jesus Johnny Depp is hot… I’m pretty sure I got sprung a couple times in this movie! But I digress…

- And some Skittles! -

I wish I lived in the 30’s – and in America! Fuck those people were/are dumb! Dillinger (Depp) escapes police custody at least 3 times in this movie, and once (I don’t want to ruin it, but I will) right in the first scene of the film, he breaks IN to prison to bust his mates out! Classic, ballsy move! And with a face and hair as awesome as our man Dillinger, I would expect him to have really big balls!

Michael Mann, writer and director of this piece of cinema history, continues to piss me off no end by employing the uses of high def video cameras instead of the marvelous 35mm the pros should use. He did this in Miami Vice (balls, but Farrell has an awesome ‘tache and mane) and Collateral (where Tom Cruise dies… but sadly only in the film and not in real life) – but in P.E it really works and you feel like you are like, IN the action! The gun fights are spectacular, the sound design is out of this world (Oscar nom at least). But the best part about this film is this must be the first time Christian Bale has ever played a character that is a bumbling fool, a complete idiot – vintage! He’s always the leader (Terminator), always the hero (Batman) and always has a handle on things (American Psycho – not a handle on his mind but reality) so it’s awesome to see him with a big cock protruding from his forehead… NICE!

public-enemies-bale

But a word of warning here guys: there is absolutely NO NUDITY! I don’t want to spoil it (but I will), near the end Depp is talking to his lady friend who is lounging naked in the bath (this is implied because usually one assumes one must disrobe completely before getting in a bath but we don’t see anything so this conclusion cannot be met with certainty) and Depp suggests that ‘He and his friend ‘Prince Albert’ should join’ her in the bath… I was rather excited at the prospect of introducing a third character to the scene, never mind the antics that could occur with three people in the bath – imagine the field day the press would have if Depp was found having a three way with a member of the Royal Family? Woah, insane! But alas, we were not introduced to this royal and we didn’t see any nip because the cops burst in and apprehend Depp (sorry, that’s a spoiler right there…) before the real fun could begin – shiza!

So there you go, I suggest watching this on the big screen because of the sound alone but don’t sit too close because the hand held vibe will make a few of you sick (not me because I’m awesome and can handle it).

Line of the film belongs to Depp: “Baby, it’s not where a person comes from that counts… It’s where they are going that matters…” Ahhh, that’s one way to get a girl in bed…

See it (now that you know most of it from reading this article)

Mom Called…

Posted on 14 July 2009 | 3 responses

My parents live in Durban and they recently purchased a brand spanking new laptop, with a web cam so they can make ‘Skype’ calls to Yours Truly. I on the other hand don’t own a laptop (use the work one) and I certainly don’t own a web cam. So, usually at around 5:30pm GMT my little Skype icon starts a flashing with ‘MOM CALLING’!!! I must explain that I work in a open plan office so I try and keep the voice calls as short and as quiet as possible…

Mom: Hello Mickle Mouse! (imagine 29 years of being called ‘Mickle Mouse’ in front of friends and peers and you will know my pain as it rings out over the quiet London office)

Me: Hello mother… (by this time I can see The Photographer, Mom and a very curious Dad peering out of my screen, as though they were looking into the spy-hole of a hotel room door)

The Photographer: Hey Shit-Head! (29 years, being called either Shit-Head or Short-Shit, know my pain)

Dad to Mom: Is he there? I can’t hear him!

Mom to Dad: He can hear you, say hello!

Dad: Hello Spike! (29 years…)

Me: Hello Dad, hows it going!?

Dad to Mom: He’s not there, why can’t I see him? I can hear him, I can’t see him!

Mom to Dad: He doesn’t have a camera! Just talk!

Dad: Oh… How’s work my boy? How was your trip to Belgium?

Me: It’s good Dad thanks… Belgium was hectic…

The Photog: We want stories, update your blog!

Mom: Yes, your blog has been very uneventful lately, please make it better!

Me: Sorry mom, Ill try harder, promise!

(remembering this conversation can be heard by my entire office…)

Mom: Listen, are you going to be in London this time next year? What are your plans?

Me: Erm, well (looking around at my colleagues)… Ummm… Well…

Dad to Mom: You can’t ask him that! Not while he is in the office!

Mom: Oh right, umm Mike, when can we call you? When can you chat about this to us because we want to plan a holiday and we want to make sure you are there so we can see you?

Me: 10 minutes Mom… Call me in 10 minutes!

Them: K bye!!!

Dad to Mom: That was silly now wasn’t it, his whole office could hear that? (end)

Nice way to let your colleagues know any potential future plans, just let your Mother tell them over Skype from Umhlanga…

Today is dragging…

Thinking about checking out Juliette Lewis’ new band tonight in Angel, and Nine Inch Nails at O2 tomorrow night… Nice little week…

The Mars Volta Tonight at Somerset House

Posted on 13 July 2009 | No responses

Jeez, ok – I’ve had Mars Volta overload… This is the 3rd time I’m seeing them in 3 weeks so this mention is just out of habit…

This is The Mars Volta playing Cotopaxi at Rock Werchter… If you watch closely you can see me with my hands up the ENTIRE song in the front row… I can assure you I was the only one singing along as there didn’t seem to be another TMV fan in the crowd… strange…

Here’s to gig Numero Trois – I’m sure it’s going to be epic…

- Somerset House: Tonight’s venue -

Hope you are having a good monday, Manatee and Edge are seeing TV On The Radio tonight – Enjoy guys!
