Weekend observations

1. Owen Wilson in Marley and Me.. THIS IS NOT A COMEDY!!!!! The last time i cried this much was when miss "i don't need to diet" Kate Winslet didn't let poor Leo float on the door with her and instead got Celine Dion sending him to an icy watery grave.

2. When i switched on the car radio on Sunday morning to hear Wham's wake me up before you go-go i thought George Michael had also died.

3. Good bye Confed Cup, thanks for the awesome games...see you next year for the big one.

Ahhh Packaging..the fifth P of Marketing...

You gotta love www.news24.com

Check out the photo they place with the article Worse than HIV/Aids relating to TB....a naked woman...off course!!

Raving for the over 30's

The first rule is GO VIP.

The second rule is leave before 03h30....this seems to be the "dusk till dawn" moment of clarity (sic) when the cracks open and spew out societies finest onto the unsuspecting trance loving public.

The third rule: Dear Organisers, please plan enough bar stock to last till AFTER 3 am....we have been dancing and who knows whatting all night and some aqua might be nice!!!

Fourth rule: Dear Armin, Tiesto sooooo kicks your ass!

And the fith and final rule....or rather observation...WTF is it with body builders, Mr T gold chains and 80's hairstyles that seem to emerge around crack opening time?

p.s Great time had by all none the less

Is advocate barbie a hottie....?

or is it just me??

Girl Action...the story so nice they listed it twice!!!

Finally Gordon Ramsay gets the ultimate sandwich he has been yearning for all these years...

Thoughts that cross your mind in split seconds

1. you take that last gulp of your coffee
2. you swallow some lumpy bits that can best be described as quasi-solid
3. with relief you recall dipping some rusks in your coffee earlier..
4. the relief turns to horror when you suddenly realise that you had rusks with your coffee YESTERDAY!!!
5. you look into the bottom of the cup and declare "screw you guys, i'm going home"

Recycled Jokes

Opening Scene: group of people (usually a social setting)
One person makes a funny / witty comment
small percentage of the group laugh at said comment
3 - 5 seconds later, a second (different) person makes the same joke
EVERYBODY ROARS WITH LAUGHTER!!!

Second person gets all the credit,respect and groupies reserved for comedians while the first person tries to make sense of it all by writing an anonymous blog as the credits roll us home.

I know that recycling is important in this day and age....but jokes???!!

and...cut!

Who is dressing Liezel van der Westhuizen for the Idols shows?

Seriously!

Is anybody checking on this poor girl before she goes on stage???

A few Sundays ago she wore a dress that can only be described as a retirement village recreation and coma room curtain,

Last night, however, she took me right back to Beverly Hills Cop!

Walk with me...

Hair reminiscent of 80’s heart throb Bridget Nielsen, except the canary yellow leather has been traded in for some leopard print..

The leopard is exchanged for a “little black number”

Unfortunately the hair doesn’t survive the side wind tunnel test...

Oh sure, I have tried it in the past, many times, with an exact equal amount of failure attached.

Today seemed somehow different, I woke up early, feeling well rested and relaxed.

After preparing the first administration of caffeine I still had enough time to get back into bed for a few minutes to read "its not about the bike"...the book has been out for ages but I never got around to it until I too started spending great amounts of time in the saddle, battling the heat, sweat and sheer exhaustion of Natasha's Monday evening spinning class.

I got to work early, the traffic was a breeze almost reminiscent of I am legend.

As per usual at this time of the month I prepared and emailed my monthly report to my MD...only to realise that I left out an important item...

The good mood changed, my spirits plummeted, the sky's hue turned from a shading of 6:6:148 to 71:69:85 (RGB) or if you prefer Pantone: from 278 right down to a 655.

Feeding off the final shreds of optimism and confidence I tried one time and....

managed to successfully recall an email message...
