The art of free beer

Today I thought I would post a good life's lesson I learnt last night. How to get a free drink with out being hit on by anyone. This is for people who appreciate beer as much as I do.

Step 1: Look innocent

Step 2: Pretend to have no money (this is crucial, because then it rules out the possibility that you are flirting with the buyer.)

Step 3: Inform the buyer that you will 'buy them one next time'

Step 4: Don't ask the same person twicea nd don't let the same person see you with another beer (They may think you are 'cheating' them)

This should be fool-proof, but adjustments may be necessary.

Say what?

So here is the LOL of the weeks, for defs, bru. So Blade Nzimande issued a statement last week saying, "The media is a threat to Democracy". This alone is funny because he is a communist, so logically he would not be in favour of the neo-liberal principles instituted by Trevor Manuel in 1990-odd, no? Apparently not. And he is the minister of Higher education and training. And the General Secretary of the SACP. I see a problem here.

Time for me

It's been a while since I last blogged, so I thought it would be appropriate to rant a little about my life. Speaking of ranting, check out my latest rant vlog at bit.ly/955SPq. It's rather interesting, I think... Cruise around the site and check out some of the other news and some of my other vlogs.

Recently, my life has been pretty average, comprised of the usual bull* punctuated by the incessant assignments. It's kinda a situation of 'Different day, same bull*'

Jeezy creezy. This work is getting to me man. Really it is. I suppose that is varsity though? And I have to get into second year Journalism. AAAHHHH!!!! Digging one of my lectures at the moment... I'll give you a clue- It isn't politics, history or english... *sneaky face*

I've rediscovered Bed on Bricks again. Wow, they're cool. Their lyrics are so relevant to my life, but in a subtle kinda way. Go check them out their site: http://bit.ly/aoJzA0.

And here comes some subliminal advertising for a good DJ mate of mine, Das Kapital. Go have a listen to his latest mix on Soundcloud. It's a mad mix of electropop and house that really gets my toetsies tingling... Man I miss that kiddo.

Leave me a comment of follow-a-brother on twitter.

I'll be back soon....

a Word on Footie

It makes no sense why people are so confident in teams that really aren't that good, for example Italy. Look at tonight's game. They drew with Paraguay. There was no reason for it, it's not like Italy had all of their good players injured or that Paraguay were particularly good, it's just that Italy aren't as good as people think.

It cheeses me off when people say 'Forza Azzuri' or 'Viva Italia'. Are you Italian? No. So Stop it.

Things that make my life average

- PeOpLe hU rITe LYk DiS

- My bad spelling

- Running out of hot water

- Res food

- Coffee creamer

- The designers of Daihatsu

- Miniture paper punches

- Green bananas

- Small televisions with no DSTV

The end, my friend

When something is gone, a void is created.
She fills this void with what she thinks she needs.
She really is just going to create
What she cannot handle


We are not friends any more.
She deems me not good enough.
A waste of time she says.
So was the time I was with her.

I have nothing to show for it.
Other than a pair of faded blue jeans
A bottle of contrived courage
And a string of metal links

This, my friend is the end

Every day we are screwed over
Every day we get out of bed
In the hope that that day
Will be the day that makes
All the pain and anguish worth while

Well, this be not that day.
This, my friend is the end

It's harder in real life

As you gaze
gaze upon the ways
you have done

You may come to find
it is not how they said
that justice is not blind

leave nothing there
save for the influence
of thought and deed

One may not need
the Knowledge
you have sown, and reaped

Some seed may land on rock
some among thorn
some shall grow tall

You will yield
what is not easy to deal
the seed that groweth into bloom in the field
