Posted 23 June 2009 | By Mike | Categories: Random Thoughts, South Africa | 32 Comments

I’ve been offered 10 tickets to the Comedy Heavies gig happening at Carnival City next weekend and am giving them away to 4 lucky people (yes, I’m keeping 2 for me monkeys) who post the best jokes in the comments section of this post by 8PM Sunday 28 June. MY decision is final… here’s [...]

Mr. Nene, Meet The Web. Web, Meet Mr. Nene

I hate live TV interviews – they petrify me – and for good reason too. See what happened to Nhlanhla Nene while being interviewed live on SABC. It’s spreading like wildfire too – I have mates in the States asking me who ‘this Nene chairman’ is already – LOL.

Much respect goes to the [...]

Demetri Martin, Again. This Time With ‘Art’

My Springleap.com T-shirt (And More)

Posted 09 August 2008 | By Mike | Categories: Life, etc. | 3 Comments

My apologies to the kind folks at custom T-shirt shop Springleap.com – they were generous enough to nominate me for their first ‘blogger face-off’ with Dave Duarte and sent me some T’s after the fact (even though I lost apparently my T design is quite popular) – and it’s taken me forever to write about [...]

He’s Rex The Lion, Hear Him Roar

Posted 05 July 2008 | By Mike | Categories: Random Thoughts, Web 2.0 and Social Media | 8 Comments

It had to happen eventually. Someone with some time, skill and a sense of humour has created Rex the Lion (rather smartly too) to poke fun at the local egosphere. Bravo – this should be fun. Early celeb mentions are Rich…!, Nic and Cluckhoff. Good times!
