deleted, going for lightness

2 Comments // Written on Aug 29, 2008 // Uncategorized, lists

Ive deleted my last post. It isnt me at all. Ive come to the realization that something in my past has screwed with me. I am not that heavy beast. Im casting you off and going for lightness - going for goodness instead of  hurt that is long gone. I choose to make it not belong to me anymore. I will NOT let it fuck up my life and everything important to me. Allow me to introduce myself. I am stick man. Light.

like a blue big toe in the morge - im tagged

Thanks to my sneaky girlfriend just[b]coz, Ive got to come up with

7 interesting things about me

Mmm…

1. I’m fast. Or at least I used to be. When i was in high school I used to be able to run the 100m at a brisk pace. I’m not sure now though, would probably cough up a lung at the 50m mark.

2. I’d like to say that people don’t intimidate me, but that’s probably unrealistic. But the truth is that I’m almost never intimidated by people, no matter who they are. That’s not to say I’m not respectful, just that when someone tries to be intimidating, my instinct is to either laugh, or be irritated me (depending on the situation).

3. I’m petrified of bees. While i have never been stung by one, I have a deathly premonition that an unstoppable allergic reaction would ensue, and that that might be the death of me (even though I don’t know for sure if I’m actually allergic)

4. I have strong intuition, and often feel something before its going to happen. Its a part of me that I’ve always shut down in the past because of the seduction of logic. I’m learning all the time how to listen to it more.

5. This ones a killer.  You guys are so lucky that I’m stupid enough to share it. When i was a baby and a little boy, my older sister Charlene used to dress me up in all sorts of girlie outfits, put me in a bamboo pram, and wheel me around the house pretending I was her baby. Oh yes, the name she gave me was “Rosie”.

6. I have a secret desire to do something physical and dramatic. To act, to play a character, to pretend.  I doubt that will ever happen. Casting calls for Egoli are closed i hear…

7. Im a peace loving rational anarchist.

6 kick ass celebrity mullets! In the universe…EVER!

I just realized there’s a big chance that any randoms landing on this blog may in fact be searching for something of the neckcape variety - Mullets baby!

And even though this isnt a blog about mullet harstyles per say, i feel the need to make everyone feel at home. So, kick back and revel in the follicular beauty of  6 kick ass celebrity mullets.
In the universe…EVER!

Cracking the nod at number 6, and setting this post ablaze out of the starting blocks, is the dashing Richard Dean Anderson of MacGyver fame. MacGyver was a huge hit, and I think his mullet had a big influence. When Richie went for the crop, he moved onto that Stargate crap. I reckon if he’d kept the mullet, Stargate would have magically become brilliant and now be regarded as a “best series” in its time.  I just had a revelation: Samson must have had a mullet. Definitely!

No 5. Bouncing manhair universe on a tennis court, and the only sports star on this list, Andre Agassi. Agassi was a legend when he was anti-conformist and colourful and shit. Undoubtedly he’s one of the most naturally talented players that i have witnessed. He was awesome to watch too - flamboyant and unpredictable. Then i don’t know what happened. He shaved the receding mullet (he should have embraced the eventual skullet), and became Moby. What a shame.

No 4. Oh Michael Bolton. Oh Michael Bolton. You are a sexy beast to all woman and men over 50 and 150kg.

No 4. Billy Ray Cyrus: Your music has undoubtedly been played as background to many an incestuous union in the deep South. Congratulations.

No 2. Our very own local mullet, Vernon Koekemoer. Damn he’s sexy. Some guys just have it all.

No 1. JESUS! I bet you didn’t know that Jesus had a mullet. He did. And he rightly takes no 1 spot.
