Snow, in Sandton

It’s snowing.



Yeah I know. For most people it’s no big deal. But I live in Africa. Snow is for the mountains and the high altitudes. Not Johannesburg! It’s becoming a regular occurrence that we might soon have to start buying snow boots, and ski’s. No longer will these be for the affluent few who can go to the mountains to see snow and ski, but for the everyday Jo’burger to get to and from work. 20120807_120931.mp4

Calitzdorp - Smoking Pipe

Today I had some time on my hands, and decided to check in on this website. I've bought a Afrika wood pipe from EbenHarts in 2008 and still smoke it. It's a heavy pipe. Solid in the hand. Not one you want to clamp down on though. Unless you like spending time in the dentist chair.

For as sure as tomorrow will come, they will have a stupendous amount of reasons why you shouldn’t be happy. Now, I ask you: “Why the hell not?” Why shouldn’t you be happy? Ignore the stress and worries for the day, because you can always worry tomorrow. If tomorrow doesn’t come, then at least you didn’t waste your today on worrying about something that would not come. I know I am a worry wart. It seems to be expected. At work, everyone passes their worries on to you, then seem surprised when you just listen, nod wisely, and carry on. Why take on someone else’ burdens when you have so many of your own to carry. Grab your coat. Grab your hat. Leave

10 Ways To Hack Into Your Happy Brain Chemicals

10 Ways To Hack Into Your Happy Brain Chemicals Life gets busy. 2016 for us in South Africa is going to be tough. Emotional black mail and black mail in general is a socially acceptable way to deny some their constitutional rights. So take a read above and stick it to all those office clones that make your day hell. All those wannabes on the roads that can't drive to safe their lives (it's been one of those days). So, to quote Bobby McFarren: "Don't worry. Be Happy."
