Books, DVD’s, CD’s

You’ll see that there’s a new link on the header of this site labelled “Books, DVD’s, CD’s”. This is a list of items that I currently own, I’ll update the list as often as possible and hopefully in the future I’ll write a few reviews about some of the items on the list.

I’m hoping that this will help you my loyal readers get to know me a little better and it helps my friends and family buy me gifts *hint* *hint*.

Have your say!

So I’ve finally enabled comments on stuff.za.net, actually they’ve been working for a while but I haven’t told anyone yet. I’ve enabled them backwards too so you can post comments on any of the posts on my site.
So you can now let me know how great I am and further inflate my ego 😉

Please remember that the comments are moderated by me, so if I don’t like what you say or you decide to spam me I won’t approve the comments and they won’t be posted. Oh and you’re not allowed to comment on things like my spelling or grammarr… If you don’t like the fact that I can do this… too bad…

Awesome Guitar Solo

You know when you hear a piece of music that makes the hairs on your neck standup and you get goose bumps ? Well this is one of those kinds of pieces of music, the difference is that it’s all being played by one person on a single acoustic guitar.

This one I stumbled across while doing my morning browse of my favourite websites. This one I found via digg and it was so impressive I just had to share it.


Here is a direct link to the YouTube page with it on.

My “Uneventful” Trip back from George or Clear packaging tape is wonderful stuff.

This weekend I went back to George for a short break, a chance to get a few things done that I’ve been meaning todo and a chance to contemplate the general meaning of live, the universe and everything.
I’ve had strange things happen in the past happen to me when travelling from Capetown to George and back again. I’ve been in a bus thats broken every speed limit on the way, been in one that left someone behind, been sandwiched between many a large black women or sat infront of or behind the couple with the screaming baby. On occasions when I’ve travelled with friends we’ve gotten lost, gotten a flat tyre and been stuck in traffic… which nearly double our trip time. This time was no different.

Happy Birthday to me?

So I turned 23 this week, on the 21st of June for those of you who forgot.

What amazes me was the number of automated birthday wishes from every forum I’ve got a login for, cell phone providers and banks and almost everything I’ve ever entered my birth date into. In total I got about 30 birthday emails, 1 of which was from a real person (my parents).

So too those of you who wished me happy birthday, Thank you. To those who didn’t, it’s never too late.

Cats

There is an unwritten law of online blogging/writing/journaling etc that states that every site should at least have one post about cats. No one is really sure who came up with this rule… perhaps the cats? But so that I don’t get into trouble or feel left out here is my contribution to the internet’s collection of websites and posts dedicated to cats…

Tools and DIY

Anyone who knows me well will be able to tell you that I’m mad about tools… any tools. Since I was small I would go wonder round the tool/DIY sections of shops staring at all the cool tools that you can buy. My dream as a kid was to have a huge workshop filled with all kinds of tools where I could make anything I could dream of…
