I am going to be in the market soon for a mascot / logo for my company.

I am wanting a female skunk as the character and if i can find the right artist / style I am hoping to turn her into a brand of sorts.

I am starting a tuning and carbon fiber fabrication business. Fingers crossed

I actually forgot how to post and update stuff here.

Life has been hectic and work very busy. I am needing some advice / info. So hopefully someone out there can help.

I am looking to start up a gameing arcade in my town and I was wondering can one use PS2's X-box's and Wii's in an arcade? Is there a special licence one can get to do it? I don't want to do anything ilegal hence I am asking.

On Saturday I attended the Linkin Park concert at Soccer City in Johannesburg.

What an amazing event, the band was amazing but what really made the event so special was the people in attendance. The following vid is just an example.

I don't post much mainly because I lead a very boring life, and its not easy to say whats on my mind.

Lately I have come to realize that I am the so called "joke of the party". There are the few exceptions but for the most part I am a tool to be used only when the need arises. I am seriously flawed, both mentally and physically. I hate confrontation and will do anything to avoid it. It has gotten so bad of late that if there is an argument or embarrassing situation in a movie or TV show I switch channels just to avoid seeing it. I never used to be like this and I am beginning to get to the point where i no longer know who the real me is. Everyday I get up, put on a mask and go to work. Also I cannot say what is on my mind for fear of offending someone. The word no just about doesn't exist.

An example .....A friend wants to go fishing, his car is older than mine and better suited to the place where he wants to fish. Somehow we always take my car. No matter where we go or what we do I have to use my car while his piece of shit stays at home and is non worse the wear.
i am sick of it, but yet i cannot say what is on my mind.

What is wrong with me............................

I...I...I watched the first episode of the new My Little Pony.

I keep telling myself it was just to see what all the fuss was about.

The otherday I met up with a friend of mine and a few of his buddies. During the festivities I got to talking to this one bloke about one of my dreams, buying and restoring a classic muscle car. Next thing he pulls out his cell phone and makes a call and then asks "You want a Barracuda?"

Turns out his uncle has a few classic cars and one of them is a project he never completed, and its just been sitting in a warehouse forgotten. I asked what he wanted for it and got a figure of 13 grand. I am now trying to get to see this car as I am really interested. The only thing I know about the car is it has a 426 Hemi engine. That places it from 1970 - 1974???

I only hope they are not yanking my chain. Really keen on owning a muscle car.

2011 did not end very well. My new car spent most of December and a good portion of January sitting at the local GM dealer while the dealership who sold the car and the bank who financed it fought over who was going to do the repairs.

My car blew its turbo oil seals and two sensors started to malfunction. It was risky to drive the car as the engine could suffer an effect called "detonation" (also called "spark knock") This is an erratic form of combustion that can cause head gasket failure as well as other engine damage. Detonation occurs when excessive heat and pressure in the combustion chamber cause the air/fuel mixture to autoignite.

After a month of nothing, I have had to take a loan to fix the car myself. As soon as I get it back and I have enough spare cash I will be suing the dealer who sold me the car.

Not being a believer in the whole religious side to Christmas, I still would like to wish all of you a very happy Holidays! and a prosperous 2012.

I hope that next year will be a better than is past year. If it was anything like mine, 2012 can only be better.

Today I picked up my new car. Not brand new but new for me.

2007 Opel Astra 2.0L OPC

It is unbelievable, very, very happy skunk

I generally hate birthdays. This year I was actually looking forward to it but once again it's disappointing. Only one of my local friends phoned to wish me.

Then again it hasn't been all bad. My domestic bought me a present!! Here is a young lady who cleans my home on a Saturday who has only worked for me for a few months and she knew about my birthday. Thank you Precious, you will definitely be getting that raise.

Well i should be saying lack of fitness. Played my first game of squash tonight and i am pooped!!! So unfit. Hopefully this is a new beginning to getting in shape

10 years ago the world stood still and watched as thousands of people lost their lives to an act of terrorism. Today we still don't know the whole truth but two wars later the hurt remains.

People ask me how can I not have a religion, am I not scared of damning my soul.

My answer to them has always been, "If God allows people to kill and do unspeakable things in his name, then he must be one heck of a bastard or it is that he doesn't exist at all. Religion is man made and is responsible for killing millions. I would rather be damned than conform to a belief stained with blood."

That's just my belief and you are welcome to yours. It is a free world after all.

Its been a while since I have posted anything. I am amazed at how people I watch post stuff like everyday. Is it because their lives are that much more interesting than mine or maybe its because they find it easier to just let loose and post whatever's on their mind.

Of late my life just seems to revolve around work. if i am not at work I panic because I am not there to handle things. I have no faith in my co-workers ability to function with out me being there.

I am struggling to ride my bike, when i change gears I stall the bike and on one occasion I nearly went over the handlebars. That has put the fear into me and I am struggling to work thru it. So once again I am paying for something I am not using. I am trying to save up and buy a cheap old 250 bike and practice on it so's to get more confidence. I bought my bike not realizing just how big it really was, silly huh.

With all the price increases from our sole power company, my landlord has installed an electric switch to control my geyser, I am all for saving the planet, but I have my limits.....

Having to take an Ice cold bath when it is 2 deg C is my limit.

It has been on of those weeks where come Friday you look back and wonder what exactly did you do and where the week went. It seems like the 1st of January was like just the other day and here we are into the middle of the year.

I still cannot believe it myself, since I don't really know how to ride one of these things. Oh well you are never to old to learn I guess,

The bike is a metallic blue BMW F650GS twin. It is a duel on and off road bike.

I will be getting it at the end of the month. Cannot wait to head down the many dirt roads in the area and take plenty of photos of whats there.

Well I cannot really call it new, its new to my collection though it was new in 1963.

My Grandfather gave me is, currently not working, Milolta Hi-Matic 7 35mm camera which according to him has been used on one holiday before been put into a box and forgotten about for 47 years.

I have the original flash, 3 colour filter lenses, the operatoes booklet as well as the leather carry bag.

One problem, the camera is sticking each time you work the film leaver. Trying to figure it out as to why its doing this. Once its fixed I have a gem of a camera to play with.

Oh joy of joys

Tomorrow, Friday 20th May 2011 I finally get my increase. Now I can hopefully convince some artists to do some commission work of my characters.

I am also thinking about starting up my sandblasting studio again. We have a small number of furs in SA now who may be interested in some sandings, but what I really want to do is try and sell a few items in the states, have a few ideas on how to protect the fragile items, just pricing to work on.

I have also been playing with wire again, trying to make some unique wire figurines.....more to follow at a later date.

Today I took delivery of my new phone. It is a Samsung Galaxy Tablet. It is nice, fulled with technology. One problem...

I need to find a 12 year old to show me how to work everything. I am not the greatest when it comes to technology. I have only ever had cheap phones in the past. This is the most advanced gizmo I have ever owned.

Banks are useless!!

We pay so much in service charges to take out money out when we need it, and they give us so little interest to keep it in there. But what really pisses me off is the SMS's saying "Need a loan, you qualify for X amount"

I really needed o get a small loan today to help make paying off my folks depts easier. So i went to see my bank with the knowledge i qualified for a loan. Turns out I cannot get a loan, reason........They see me as a casual laborer! I mean I have worked for the same company for 4 years, just because i get paid weekly they cannot help me.

DAMNIT!!!!!!

Hopefully the landlord will allow me to split my rent over 2 weeks.

Life is so boring right now, seriously need some action, company would be nice too.

Oh well.

Not feeling to great right now.

For a while I have been struggling to clear my depts. I am finally at a point where this year I was going to be dept free, well that was the plan. Besides my current dept I have, today, taken on a fair size of my parents financial woes.

So I have been sitting here trying to find all the things I can sell to try and make as bigger dent with the funds now owed. Trouble is, only thing of value is my PC and my Camera and i cannot live with out them.

Back to the drawing board so to speak, mabey I can find an evening job, only need 7 hours to sleep.

Phew....

Been a busy night uploading some of my better images. A lot of them were taken with a Fujifilm finepix S300. As of Last year I have been using my new camera, a Fujifilm Finepix HS10.

Thank you to everyone who has commented and/or favored them.

Hope to be posting many more.
