Yup, it’s that time of the year. Wrapping up time – both presents, work and everything else. Time to kick this bitch of a year out and see in a new one and with no Muaythai for 2 weeks, I have to kick something dammit! “Fa la la la la la laaaaaa” This year hasn’t been all bad, even if it has been a hectic one. Starting Roxilla, writing on Ostendo, getting a proper domain for Rox in the City, …
Clive Owen simply looked tortured in Children of Men. Most of the people in Hostel get the real deal… shame. You’d think that tourists guides would have a section for this kind of thing. Something like ‘looking for girls: is it really worth it?’ The main characters in this classic Tarantino gem are oblivious to the pitfalls that await unsuspecting fools, and are in Amsterdam doing what any over-excitable college students do: looking for ass. Through various adventures, they find …
Having got back today from a loooong weekend, the blissed outness is still with me and it’s almost Christmas. So here are my reasons to feel good today… * We’re doing knees in class. Doing a fast knee to the stomach is a slick, powerful move and as you grab your opponents neck and pull it towards you, which puts more power into it, daaamn is it effective! * I have a 2 day working week. I’ve been off Monday …
Damn he was hot in Sin City! Last night I actually went to a movie. We wanted to watch Borat, but it was sold out so we decided to watch Children of Men. I have to admit, I only had the vaguest idea what it was about and only wanted to watch it because it has Clive Owen in it and everything else looked kak. Oh. My. God. As it starts off like most other action-type movies set in the …
“Where have all the good men gone? And where are all the guards/ Isn’t there a white knight upon a firey steed? Late at night I toss and turn and dream of what I’ll meet/ I need a hero / I’m holding on for a hero to the end of the night He’s got to be strong and he’s got to be brave, and he’s got to be fresh from the fight” Bonnie Tyler – I Need A Hero Gotta …
This is Sonic. Sonic is an EMO cat. Early signs of addiction This is Sonic at 6 weeks. Already by then he showed signs of being a disturbed young cat. Whenever my back was turned, he would be drinking from my beer, wine or even whiskey glass – it seemed that milk was not enough. Other warning signs were his penchant for sneaking out of the house, often by scaling the lemon tree outside the window. Sonic’s made his transition …
My life is like a music video, but not as fun. Well, ok not really but I have music playing almost all the time, and usually very loud and so it sometimes feels like I’m in a music video. Aaanyway, to get to the point, there is music (put-it-on-and-just-sommer-play-through) and then there’s music (play-play-again-wow, what-a-song). There are songs for everything. Everything. Rox’s Tjoons To Do Things To [1] Tjoons To Shag To: * Cafe del Mar – Northern Lights * …
I was inspired by Shoezilla’s awesome movie review to add a review section. Our reviews really do kick ass, as does everything we do. Because we kick ass – duh! Ahem. So anyway, I have recently discovered Seether. Or rather, I came across One Cold Night, which totally changed my opinion of them and I have had it on almost non-stop since I found it. This is quite a feat, as my work tunes run into the hundred thousands. In …
I went to see the new SA movie Faith Like Potatoes, I enjoyed the movie and was touched by it. I’d recommend it to everybody. Faced with ever mounting challenges, hardships and personal turmoil, Angus quickly spirals down into a life consumed by anger, fear and destruction. Based on the inspiring true story by Angus Buchan the book was adapted for the big screen by Regardt van den Bergh and weaves together the moving life journey of a man who, …
Are women reverting? Iol: Dublin – “When I was a child, it was understood that girls would evince a natural interest in homemaking, and it was believed that such interest was to be encouraged,” says Caitlin Flanagan, author of To Hell With All That: Loving And Loathing Our Inner Housewife. Now the fortysomething mom of twins and writer believes women are becoming increasingly attracted to the privileges and niceties of traditional womanhood – that in spite of women’s success in …
