  1. And no, Deni is not a suburb of Parrow:
  2. Been buying from Takealot for years. A little tip if you want to get your goods delivered quicker to you. If they allow COD (and the amount is reasonable), then opt for that. I've ordered COD at 11h30 and had it on my desk by 14h00
  3. The Greatest Speech Ever Made The only move in which Charlie Chaplin spoke and today its even more relevant than ever before.
  4. The Wayseer Manifesto
  5. Rise Up http://youtu.be/IOiUrF74F14
  6. I noticed that on a lot of photos that the guys where wearing surgical gloves including the native Kenyans. Tin foil hat theory: there where reports of the Mossad assisting so it might be some spy thing [/tin foil hat]
  7. Is it redneck to give your daughter money when she asks to take pole dancing lessons ...
  8. They probably filled it all up with ASCII art porn
  9. I had to use google image search for that one: http://agonistica.com/recipe-for-disaster-by-steve-mcghee/ Recipe for Disaster by Steve McGhee “My work reflects a personal interest in things human beings have little or no control over. We walk through life feeling like we’re indestructible, while in reality, we’re just the opposite. In the days and weeks following a major catastrophes,, people tend to reboot – we get shocked back into being human. That is to say, we react in an undeniably human way… whenever tragedy strikes in the world people come together to help those directly affected. It’s just too bad we have to be reminded that we’re human in such terrible ways. My work is in no way intended to glorify or condone acts of terrorism or celebrate the loss of millions of souls who have perished in past events, rather it is a commentary on the frailty of human existence and made to honour the loved ones left behind to deal with their unbearable loss.” http://stevemcghee.com/
  10. 10 years ago (2003) we had the most snow coverage on the mountain and it happened in September. Its not uncommon to get snow a couple of times a year, including September but that is usually only a small bit.
  11. +1 ... NSFW (tear jerker warning)
  12. A rather powerful message in this one:
  13. Found this really powerful youtube video about the power of words: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOMMFx1NZt0
  14. LOL, the other night I swore when I got on the scale and told its broken, we need a new one. She replied, did tell me again "One at a time!"
  15. Nope, and neither on the treadmill .... which reminds to get the treadmill up for her so we both can get rid of our winter padding
  16. Wish I could post the same about the wife in 12 months time
  17. Now I'm picturing grandma from "Thats My Boy" making comments to Arnnie (with some side comments from Vanilla ICE) .... OK, we watched the movie twice this weekend it was so good
  18. I measured 60mm over a 36hr period in my rain meter this morning at 5:50am this morning when it had stopped raining. When I left home at 6:20am it was pouring again so going to be interesting. I've measured over 150mm in the last two weeks now! This is going to be a record rainfall August month as we only average 76mm .
  19. I have to wear prescription glasses and always do. Has saved me many times but that full face helmet is still a must as its R3K for new glasses. But just the other day I was removing a bracket out of the wall and I pulled too hard, it banged me in the eye. If I had not had my glasses on it would have been casualty ward. Hurt like hell and my glasses survived without a problem. Those full face helmets are also handy for weed eaters and cutting holes into ceilings (just last week I had to cut a 30cm hole for our bathroom extractor fan and I had all that crap landing in my face)
  20. And comes in handy when doing maintenance on the bike
  21. Was using my Louis Garneau MTB gloves in the garden this weekened after I nearly sliced off my thumb two weeks back. Going to that safety store on Saturday opposite AutoZone to get some proper gloves and some ear plugs. I value my ears too much after I damaged my hearing as a teenager (not music but a very bad ear infection that resulted in me going deaf for two weeks).
  22. Very true and I see too many people these days neglect safety. Then again I have never forgotten the smacks I use to get from metal work teacher when my tie was loose, or my woodwork teacher who would smack us if you held your saw skew. Safety first, second and last on the checklist.
  23. I love getting their catalogue in my post box. Was perving at those tools this weekend.
