#2: THE REAL SLIM SHADY.mp3! (Sorry, I couldn't resist :-D)

So #2, out of all the T.V. series ever crafted, lovingly, like an old man bent hunchback over his tools, but headlamp ON, is...

THE WIRE. ALL THE SEASONS.

 /ƾƾ (Don't those LOOK like musical notes? A tiny bit, yeah? Song lyrics...)

 SHAKE THA' WHOLE THANG! /shakes that booty like a 'ho/

 ƾƾ/

 Getting back to The Wire, I could go on for days talking about how MAGNIFICENT this was. R, Agree with me? Wondering about #1, yeah? :-)

 There's a certain something to be said for the realism with which this was portrayed. I FELT for the poor people. The gangstahs were awesome!

 /waving his gun out, SURPRISE! Shooting! BANG BANG!/ :-D

Those happen to be the exact words I quoted to memories of Wynand in my head (memorial address).

 Listen, I need to step away for a second. I want to dedicate the next entry to Wynand, the cute blond-haired boy who'd have been very proud of me now. I imagine him as Mr. Miyagi tending his bonsai with grace but utmost affection. "You've done well my son.

TREVOR NOAH'S BLACK ACCENT POPPED INTO MY HEAD HERE AND MADE ME CHOKE ON MY COFFEE WITH LAUGHTER!
"'You've done very well, Caster. You've done us VERY PROUD." /Ju-ju's smiling grin/

 Trevor's SO FUNNY! :-D

 Proud of me - For supporting the Netherlands now of course. I was BAFANA all the way in 2010. Well, that was 5 days? 6? A LONG TIME, okay! :-D

 Before I get TOO emotional, I'll explain more about THE WIRE soon. But very next one is for all Wynand did for me, yeah? :-) It'll be interesting, I PROMISE. No one can understand what our amazballs relationship was like. Not to the degree I can.

#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...

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...
