At the moment I’m feeling a little overloaded with a bunch of stuff. This is causing a lull on the social side of things. More serious socialising will mostly have to wait until later this month. In the mean time, I’m trying to get back into shape, and would like to add a social aspect [...]

I’m tired of intolerance, hatred and war. I’m tired of groups attacking one another, to feel better about themselves. I’m the unfortunate recipient of a collection of genes or memes or a combination of both that causes me to simply care a little too much. Right now, I’m trying to check out a variety of [...]

Ek raak aan hom. My hand maak toe oor hom.
Ek neem die mes in my ander hand en slag hom. [...]

What is it that lets you know you are alive? Are the elves in The Lord of the Rings really and truly “alive”? I’m not so sure.
Well, yesterday morning, I took the opportunity to go and prove to myself I am alive, in the reality sense: getting out there in the “real world” and doing [...]

My mind jumped through some hoops last weekend. It was utterly bizarre. At one point I was wondering which movie I’m living in: A Beautiful Mind, or The Matrix / The Lord of the Rings. I literally went for a run, just in case some equivalent of the agents or the Nazgûl were coming for [...]
