Red October – A Smashing Success!

Well, you may or may not remember the goal I set to post every day for the month of October, but yeah, I flippin’ KLAPPED IT CHARNAS!

Thirty-one days of straight, never missing a beat posting and yes, some posts were a little on the thin side, I’m the first to admit that but considering work is drilling me like a Deepwater oil operation in the Gulf of Mexico, I think I’ve done a killer job of keeping this shit up.

I’m also stoked because I put the second Tiger Life to bed today, cut the whole thing together and managed to actually make Window Movie Maker work for me. Episode Two, unlike the first one, is fucking cool and if you don’t get a few laughs watching it, I’ll eat my shoe.

 

 

What was even more impressive was the fact that I put it together with the mother of all headaches from the tequila I smashed last night. Nothing quite like taking taxis out, it’s like playing a ‘Get Out Of Jail Free’ card.

So to give you an idea of what it’s like to party in Stellenbosch, I present to you the following video which not only captures the music perfectly, but also the people of Stellenbosch.

Watch the whole thing. You think it can’t get any better, but it does.

 

 

Yeah. Enjoy hearing that song in your head for thee next three days.

Heh heh heh.

The Halfway Mark

This is officially the halfway mark on my Red October mission. It is also officially the end of a long-ass week that I’m really thankful I got through alive.

To celebrate, I plan to do the following activities in my wooden shit-shack:

  • Drink

So while I’m smashing my way through some exceptionally fine single malt (I feel a cheeky dram of Talisker coming on) I would like you to meet my friend Melissa Riso.

 

 

What do you reckon? Five out of ten? Six? I think six is fair. Good job Melissa, that bonus point is for always flossing.

Aaaaaaaaand, I’m done.

A Text-Book “Red October” Post – WITH PUPPIES!

On the internet, repetition is king. Don’t think just because you’re a sometimes-funny fucker who got through to the finals of the SA Blog Awards and then dropped trou and showed everyone his Tiger Scants that people actually read your shit.

So to reiterate – last year, when I first started this fucking junkyard site, I posted everyday for the month of October and turned every day on the calendar you see on your right (scroll down a little… theeeeeerrreeee you go) red with posts.

This year I’m trying to do the same, but as I stated in the post I put up on the 1st, that means that some posts will be kak.

This post is kak. Make no mistake. I’m about to go taste some fine whisky at 15 On Orange so I know for a fact that I won’t be posting later tonight.

So, as a peace offering, here are cute pictures of the puppies we are currently raising. Keep a special eye out for Rocko, the fucking raddest little guy the world has ever known.

Also, send this around to all your friends, especially the girl ones, as proof that as long as you have cute animals (or porn) on your site, nobody gives a rat’s ass about what you write.

Lemon curry.

 

 

 

Ok, now I’m going to have to issue a disclaimer. What you are about to see is Rocko. He’s the coolest fucking dog ON THIS PLANET, so just take a few moments to accept that fact and prepare yourself for what you’re about to see or your head might explode with awesome.

 

 

And that. Is that.

Until tomorrow.

Red October

It begins today. Last year, when I first started this blog, I posted everyday for the month of October, and turned every day in the calendar you see on the right red with posts.

This year I aim to do the same.

The beauty of setting goals on a blog, where everyone can read them, is that failing is awesome. It’s like going onstage drunk as a hobo at a gig and passing out after three songs.

Which is why I aim not to fuck this up 😉

Sure, some posts will be banal. Some will just be plain lame, but it’s the principle of the thing y’know?

So here we go. Nine o’clock on a Friday night.

Post number one of thirty one.

Let the good times roll.
