SNOWED!

tumblr_lcrsw4kze51qc5x59o1_500I am completely snowed at the moment guys, so I’m not able to write the usual, thought compelling, life-changing, gag-inducing material that you’ve all grown to know and love, but what can you do?

I’m working right through to 10.30 / 11pm every night this week at all kinds of whisky-related events so yeah, forgive me if things are a little slow on the site.

We just need to band together during times like these and remember that blogging isn’t my day job and the bills don’t pay themselves.

To illustrate my point, here’s a picture of Jesus skateboarding like a total badass:

 

 

We cool?

Cool.

The Home Stretch

Wattup Party People.

It’s been pretty heavy going recently, I won’t lie. Work is boxing me in on all sides right now and I’m bleeding time like nobody’s business.

It’s weird, I’ve never felt like I’ve had such a loose grip on time before, it’s just sliding through my fingers continually and no matter how much of it I try to catch, it just spills out.

Blink once and it’s September already. Blink a second time and the year’s done. Too crazy.

Good news is that some crazy shit is in the pipeline so watch this space, things could get interesting 😉

 

 

Oh yeah, and before I go, a subtle message from the folks here at SlickTiger Industries:

 

VoteSlickVoteSlickVoteSlickVoteSlick

Yep, this is your last week to klap some votes for your buddy ‘ol pal in the 2010 SA Blog Awards. The previous post I wrote about the awards was BULLSHIT. You can vote every 24 hours for the blog you want to win, so let’s all of us KLAP this flippin’ interwebs popularity competition and VoteSlick every day for the rest of this week!

Then voting closes, I attend the awards ceremony, I win a kief prize and everyone lives happily ever after.

Here are the best reasons to vote for me:

  • This site klaps an average of 350 hits a day, 500 with a decent post and anywhere upward from 1000 for the good shit, so the stats are solid
  • I’ve gotten where I have with no advertising on the site and no sponsorships. I’ve hardly done any kind of viral marketing, the site isn’t SEO optimised or tweaked in any way to boost Google rankings or site views. I’m just too plain stupid to work ANY of that shit out
  • The content on this site is 95% original. It bears mentioning because most blog sites just act as aggregators for content they mooch off other sites. Me, I actually take the time to sit down and write all this crazy shit from scratch, irrefutable proof that I have indeed lost my mind
  • The pictures are funny
  • I got plans for the FUTURE. Plans to use this site for what it was originally intended. Secret plans that you’ll only find out if you VoteSlick EVERY DAY FOR THE REST OF THIS WEEK!

I honestly wasn’t going to go the grovelling for votes route, but then I read the mail that a certain wildly popular, lifestyle-oriented SA blog site sent around last week and fell off my chair laughing.

What kind of a Tiger would I be if I didn’t give my readers a chance to fall off their chairs laughing too?

A pretty lousy Tiger I tell ya, a pretty lousy Tiger indeed…

Until next time 😉
