I saw the news, and didn’t think much of it – being that I’m not much of a gambler (back problems), and because I don’t believe in Jesus. However, I had no idea that the legality would inflict such harsh sentences towards those businesses (and individuals!) who ignore this new dumb law.

A 10 million Rand fine OR 10 years in prison? Or both!

Do they honestly reckon most gamblers are filthy rich, OR potential raping-psychopaths? OR both?

What about The Lotto (FNB banking), and Online Sports Betting? You know, them sites that The Government can regulate and tax the flow of cash.

Saying that, yesterday evening I attempted to login to my Piggs Peak Poker account (Piggs is hosted in Swaziland for those of you who lack The Power Of Greyskull). Unconcerned, eager, and displaying a poker face capable of toppling a small ant hill… I was presented with an obstruction unlike anything I have ever encountered in my entire online poker career. A webpage. A webpage informing me that I cannot play online poker. Same webpage is displayed when going to Piggs website.

What the fuck. Holy Fuck. Shit in a Fuck. Fuckity. Fuck. Fuck.

I didn’t realize online poker was included in this horseshit? How in heaven am I supposed to lose half my salary this month now. Or avoid tax shady money laundering…

I’m really concerned. How can they stop us from interacting with an online casino that isn’t even hosted in SA? Is it because its gambling (clearly not, because gambling is legal and they tax it fucked up). Thus it must be because they lack control over the money transfers and winnings? Therefore, restricting possible poker players from becoming instant millionaires and thus altering the way shit is.

Does The Government tax Ebay purchases? MMORPG in-game businesses (cash-transit, character selling etc)? Public healthcare?

This is all crazy. I’m seriously feeling rather faint at the moment. I best sit down.

The appeal is tomorrow, and I trust someone will talk some sense into those retards. Jobs have been lost. I know okes that play online poker for a living.

Once again, Fuck.

Anyways, to cheer things up… heres a picture of a dead kitten.

Shit. Wrong pic.

I’m testing my feed. Cause I’m a hungry hungry hippo killer.

I found this comment… somewhere. Cant recall exactly where. Oh wait… here we go. Anyways, it made me chuckle for its obvious brilliance.

Its in reply to last years’ Rag Mag (A satirical magazine created and sold by UCT students) controversy. One of the articles took the piss out of religion… amidst other unthinkable acts.

And amongst all the nose bleeds, crucifixes, and shady tax-benefit deals… the church (and fellow worshipers) took to their email clients in complete and utter frustration. Sending enough hate-mail to blacklist SA’s IP range for spamming.

Here be the comment (which coincidently debunks religion) :

“If God is so great and wonderful, surely then some silly student mag and its childish humour would not touch him or detract from his greatness. In fact, I haven’t heard much from God himself on the issue; it’s only the narrow-minded, confused Christians who are having heart failure. Pity they apply their own insecurities and limitations to this almighty being that they have such blind faith in. Regardless, what is really pitiful is that these narrow-minded muppets are quick to threaten protests and mass action against something stupid like this, but are conspicuous by their absence when it really matters. What about some protests against government’s mismanagement of the fight against crime? Corruption? Violence against women and children, etc? Where are you do-gooders then? Rather stay in church and pass around the collection plate – something you sheep are good at. Bleat, bleat!!!!”

Peace and harmony.

I am blown away. One day I am living my pathetic, miserable life – unable to make calls from Google – and then…

BAM!

…all of a sudden, a Call Phone application arrives (as if Google somehow became self aware) and decides to leave a solid dent at the top of my chat contacts, and my expectations.

Call Phone – A Google App.

At first I thought this to be only available to them US and Canadian folk. But no – thanks to the wise Jeremy Nell (the one who took on the general consensus bare-fisted).

As contrary to popular belief, it is in actual fact, available for everyone (well, I didn’t go through every country) – calls are just free for 2010 for US and Canada. Ahhh.

So I called my parents house, and it rang. I then heard a loud shriek of a hello from the domestic… before ending the call out of pure horror.

Holy fuck, it worked.

Shortly after, I decided to have phone sex with Jeremy – being Friday and all. This was unfortunately cut short, due to Google only providing sufficient credit per user to erect a minor semi – and of course test the application. That being said, the quality is incredible. No fuzzy sounds. Just sweet clarity.

What are the rates you ask?

Well that depends on your geographical location – either way, they super cheap : https://www.google.com/voice/rates

Installing?

Just log into your gmail.com account, and within the Chat section, there should now be a contact called “Call Phone”. Click it, install the application, and restart your Internet Browser. Its available for Windows/Mac/Linux – I’m testing it on Linux.

What happens when I run out of credit?

Google takes over your digestive system. No well, its quite weird. One can still make calls, and it rings on the receivers end… but upon said receiver picking up, the call is instantly ended.

Purchasing credit?

If you would like to add credit, there is a link included in the application that will take you somewhere special to top-up. Theres even a billing Feature!

When I have even more time, Ill test calls from SA to the outside. Amped.

Yesterday evening I decided it was time to consume something.

However upon eating something, I felt this excruciating sensation that in some strange way, resembled pain.

The feeling, that which can only best be described as a sensitive nerve sending an important signal to my brain informing it in quick succession that something isn’t kosher, was in actual fact… pain. Complete fucking eye-gouging-with-samurai-blade type pain.

I finished eating (as I was starving) and proceeded to forget about said pain – as I wasn’t about to let pain restrict me from my after-food nap.

4 pills later, I’m asleep. Only to awake at 3am to the sounds of my own screams. Thankfully the blood dripping from my ceiling was producing a harmonious melody, and I could thus head back to dreamland without having to get out of bed and warm up some fresh breast milk.

7am comes around and I think I feel great.

However, upon making it to work this morning… on 2 drips, and a shot of morphine… my mind had adjusted to reality.

Realizing that it wasn’t physically possible to work in this condition, I left and made my way towards the horror house. Expecting the worse.

After receiving far worse than that of my expectations, I begged for mercy.

Nothing.

1 hour, 2 syringes, several drills, and a yank or 2 later. I’m dropped off outside, robbed, and presented with the option to go left or right.

Now back at work… the numbing as subsided.

Thankfully, my testicles are still attached. I hope.

I’m no fan of this shit, and will gladly post anything even remotely hating it – whether it be blasphemous, sexually disturbing, or containing one curse word.

Who the fuck takes a vampire and makes him sparkly and homo?

I was slightly skeptical in hiring this DVD initially – prior to reading any reviews. Mainly because I had never heard of it, and it didn’t come out on the cinema circuit here in SA. That being said, I was having a lazy weekend, and was in desperate need of a deepspace Sci-Fi to kick my imagination back into gear.

I need not mention its a thriller/horror as well.

At first glimpse, I was impressed. Yet still slightly weary. As the opening sequence seemed to be somewhat of a buildup to the climax – not much of a fan of this.
However, after realizing this was not the case, I sat back, fired up a cabbage to keep my mind open, and was taken back solely by the concept of locating another suitable planet for the human race.

Soon, I realized that one of the main cast actors was a favourite from Alpha Dog. And thus couldn’t help myself, but be further overwhelmed by the pure brilliance of him portraying an interstellar engineer, with almost total memory loss after hyper-sleep. It was perfect.

The plot, which although was burnt beyond recognition by “notable” critics, was much less complicated than what others have made it out to be. As although an over complex plot may deter others from watching a film, I on the other hand, find more reason to watch it because of said obscurities. As there is nothing better than viewing a film thats worth viewing again soon after, just to understand what the fuck just occurred. A strength, more than a weakness. Unless of course, its not meant to make sense – or fails miserably at attempting to make sense.

Its savage, crisp, original, and one of the finest thrillers I’ve viewed in quite some time. Honest.

At times, I was even jolting forward with complete angst for the outcome of a particular situation.

It also looks at many ethical issues, such as the idea of humans killing off humans for survival, fictional omnipotence, and self awareness. As well as some psychological conundrums like paranoia, schizophrenia, and temporary memory loss.

Wicked film. Especially if you love deepspace Sci-Fi’s. Mmmm
