Who knows David Moyes?

You do! Some of you.

 I digress. I do that. Don't read on if you don't want any spoilers. I'm doing my best (are other people?).











WARNING: SPOILER



























Ok, what do I mean? My life is like that of the new Man Utd manager, David Moyes. Those who know me, know I love United. I really do. Since 1993, I remember a match against Liverpool, with me promising to support the winner of that match. At the time, I had no knowledge of football. Not really.


1998/1999, omg. I remember it as three matches, really. The Ryan Giggs wonder goal match, Juventus Quarter-final of the Champs. League and the Bayern Munich (read: Darth Vader at the end of The Empire Strikes Back) Final ZOMG. Such history! Chills.

 So now? On Sunday, they brutally lost to an Eto'o hat-trick for Chelsea. Does anyone like Moyes right now? I do. He'll make it work. He might be under SEVERE pressure right now, but he'll make it work. Keep the faith.

 He tries his hardest because he was handed something beautiful (sound familiar?) and wants it to shine!

 Is he tempted to give in? Of course. Will he?? FUCK NO. Sometimes, love is not enough. I guess it helps, but the only person whose actions you can ABSOLUTELY control, are your own. I'm doing so.

 I "Gotta get me some of that new honey!"

 (He's classy, he drinks Cognac. Still a niggah.)

#2: World of Warcraft (2004)

Unfortunately, there was no winner to the challenge posted yesterday. Never mind, the blog's never been about such things. Today, I'd like to be your dealer. For just $15 a month, I've got the good shit... This is the heroin or crack-cocaine of games, and that's one of the only reasons it doesn't claim the top spot. I feel it almost should-be-illegal...our children should be protected! We were a group of four guys who used to play together, and we were totally extreme. We all slept at my house until 19h00 (wake up in the gutter), quickly went downstairs to make some toast (score our drugs), then raced back to our PC's to play until 07h00 in the morning (shoot up). We did this in order to get better pings, because Telkom's ADSL offering shaped traffic during the day to help out businesses. It was a 4-month-long binge. We were addicts, plain and simple. You know that scene in Trainspotting when he's passed out on his bed with a used needle lying nex...

God wants us to be with Him...

Image
I might as well treat this as a notepad, and I'll keep delivering notes to myself through this blog. God not only wants us to be with Him, he wants us to be OF Him. Sounds kinda goofy, but think about it! What parent would not want people to look at their child and go, "I can see that he was raised by good parents," ? I had this realization while sitting in church this past Sunday. The pastor did the tale of Jesus calming a storm. Calming the storm is one of the miracles of Jesus in the Gospels, namely in Matthew 8:23-27, Mark 4:35-41, and Luke 8:22-25. ... The Gospel of Mark then states that: He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, "Quiet! Mark 4:35-41 35 That day when evening came, he said to his disciples, “Let us go over to the other side.”   36 Leaving the crowd behind, they took him along, just as he was, in the boat. There were also other boats with him.   37 A furious squall came up, and the waves broke over the boat, so that i...

Lil' Dice - Roll 'em! Or not...

Image
So much of life we simply take for granted. I always thought: "Well yeah, those are dice. We use them for gaming, so?"  You might wonder why there's a negro (anyone who knows me, knows I use the word in THE MOST BENIGN possible way. A term of affection; I love black culture. It all started with my "back-then" best friend, E) wielding a gun on your screen. His nickname is Lil' Dice, and Cidade De Deus (2002) was one of my Top Ten Favourite Films. He features rather prominently in it. I suppose the little tyke was just what immediately came to mind when I thought of "Dice. Good idea? Bad idea?" ANYWAY, before I digress like I do it for a livin'...I had the opportunity to finally spare dice a thought after a gaming session involving my good friends A, L (/"waits for gasps": a LADY friend(!) who's damn cool and plays games with the boys as if she grew up with them), R and P. Now that I've offended any females who mi...
