<p>Soooo, it&#8217;s been to long since I last blogged, partially &#8217;cause I got bored of it, and didn&#8217;t feel like sharing anything, that&#8217;s how I am, I bottle things up.</p>
<p>First lets start out with a rant, I don&#8217;t like these new groups on Facebook that are popping up all over the fucking place where you you have to do a bunch of things before you can see the content of the group. First you have to &#8220;Like&#8221; the group, then invite your friends, then do one of three quizzes and then send in cock shots to the admin to be approved to join the group, and most of the time it is about the most retarded things ever. However, I came across one a few days ago which really, really, fucked me off, I can&#8217;t remember the full name, but it was about a kid that died from abuse, why the fuck would you make people LIKE that group before they can join it? &#8220;Oh hell yeah! Another kid just died &#8217;cause the parents are fucking angry retards with issues, could my day get any better?!&#8221; Get a fucking life.  There should be a group for that tard called &#8220;Man gets sodomized by big bubba for making retarded Facebook group and forcing people to like it&#8221; I would actually like that.</p>
<p>SEACOM &#8211; You mother fuckers, I hate you, so much. This was supposed to change the way South Africa saw Internet. We&#8217;re lucky if we get a weeks Internet at the speeds we should, how can you have so many fucking problems after each other. You suck, that&#8217;s all I&#8217;m saying.</p>
<p>Rant over.</p>
<p>I found out today that an EX (well, sort of) got engaged, we haven&#8217;t seen each other in a long time, and don&#8217;t speak often, I don&#8217;t know why, but it made me bleak. At the time, we both liked each other, a lot,  but wanted different things, or some shit like that. I don&#8217;t know why I&#8217;m bothered about it, most likely because other people are moving on with their lives so quickly and I&#8217;m not, and to put the cherry on top, I got in contact with a different EX last week, from years ago, the one that got away sort of thing, and she is now married and happy, I can see now why we broke up, I was a complete tool back then, just out of school, didn&#8217;t know what I wanted and other things, silly small things, were more important.</p>
<p>Anyhoo, I&#8217;m getting bored of this now, will attempt another post soon <img src='http://www.richardcoote.co.za/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>The end. *lick*</p>

<p>So, it started out like this, New Years evening myself and a few mates were driving around, setting off fireworks, looking for fireworks displays, causing mayhem and beating up little kids for their pocket money, when it dawned on me that we should take a drive down to Durban, pee in the sea, have a beer and then fuck off back home the same day, I was keen, Nick was Keen, Vito wasn&#8217;t too keen, &#8220;It was too late to drive down&#8221; Anyhoo, we went back home and continued abusing the copious amounts of alcohol, intravenus drugs and unprotected sex until 5am that morning, when all of a sudden, everyone was keen to go to Durban.. except for me, IT WAS LATE! After discussing it for a 30 min we eventually all just went to bed. We woke up at around 2 that afternoon, place a mess, strippers lying on the floor, dirty needles all over the place, wondering what we were going to do for the rest of the day, when Durban was brought up again, we all looked at each other, smiled, and agreed to go. We all jumped up, changing clothes, grabbing our smokes, putting on shoes, kicking the drunk strippers out the house, gathering all the key items we needed for out road trip. Nick was running around screaming looking for his TomTom, cause he didn&#8217;t want us to get lost.. pfft. So eventually we hit the road just after 3pm, I zeroed the clocks on my car and we were on our way.</p>
<p>The trip down was great, we were all excited, every 10 kays or so I&#8217;d scream out in a little girly voice that we were that much further into our journey, we played the normal car games, you know, 99 bottles of beer, throwing trash out the car at pedestrians, swerving into on coming traffic, singing kumbaya etc etc, then it started raining, not just any normal rain, it was pissing down in buckets, aqua-plaining every few minutes, mounting pavements cause I couldn&#8217;t see the road, it was like some greater force was trying to tell us to turn around and go home. We didn&#8217;t though, we persisted through the storm and finally it cleared! Clear skies and great views!</p>
<p>My phone was on charge the whole way down, which made for interesting photo taking (will get to that later) Driving and taking pictures of mountains, cars, hot woman in cars, Vito half asleep smelling like stripper in the back seat was a challenge, but I pulled it off. We were making pretty good time &#8217;cause the roads were quiet and stopped off in Harrysmith for petrol and snacks, I would have preferred to of carried on going, but the other two whiny bitches wanted to stop, so we did. We were there for probably 15 min or so, when we left again, I said to them, &#8220;Do you know how much time we&#8217;ve just lost cause we stopped&#8221; Nick, the fucker that he is, calmly and sarcastically said &#8220;About 15 minutes?&#8221;</p>
<p>Just before Maritzburg we hit some more rain, nothing hectic, just enough to piss me off and make us drive slowly, cause I really love those windy roads leading into Maritzburg! We got into Durban central about an hour later, at about 8.30 pm or so.. I think we were all thinking what a huge mistake we had made, I&#8217;m not exaggerating when I say there were 3 million people walking the streets in Durban, it was chaos, most of the streets were closed, police everywhere, drunk people stumbling all over the place, it looked like a shit hole, it was so dirty, horrible. After seeing that, we decided to stay well away from there, and went off to Umhlanga Rocks, found a semi quiet beach, parked the car and went for a walk, it was amazing, I had forgotten what it sounded and smelled like, the sand between your toes and how, if you just sit down and relax, how calm it can make you feel, we sat there for 2 hours, barely speaking to each other, just looking at the ocean and its awesomeness. Made me think about a lot of things actually, some good, some bad, some depro.</p>
<p>We left for JHB after 10 o&#8217;clock sometime, I&#8217;m not to sure, stopping for some steers and to stock up on petrol and juice, the drive back wasn&#8217;t too bad, we were all pretty much in shock that we actually drove to Durban just to fuck around for a little bit then leave. It was a great evening! Thank you to my boys and to everyone in Durban that offered up a place to stay, food / drinks and sexual favours!</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a couple of pics from the drive down.</p>
<p>The God awful rain.</p>

<p>This pic was at a Caltex garage, somewhere, I can&#8217;t remember where, we stopped to fill up, and I wanted to try get our drinks and what not Drive Through style, but they wouldn&#8217;t let my car into the shop.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.richardcoote.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/IMAGE_081.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-173" title="IMAGE_081" src="http://www.richardcoote.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/IMAGE_081.jpg" alt="" width="730" height="1229" /></a></p>
<p>So, 1109 kilometers later, we were home, tired, yet still amped from what we had done, I will do it again in a heartbeat, any day!</p>
<p>The end.</p>

<p>So, yesterday I installed Windows Mobile 6.5 on my <a href="http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_touch_pro2-2690.php" target="_blank">HTC</a> and decided to finally go rummaging through Google to look for some decent applications and cool things I could use the accelerometer for. Now I&#8217;ve probably been under a rock for the past couple of months because I haven&#8217;t seen anything like this before, I was so amazed at how far we have come regarding mobile phone technology, here&#8217;s a few cool things I picked up.</p>
<p>Firstly, my favourite &#8211; It&#8217;s a QRcode barcode link, you need an app to use it first, you can find it <a href="http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-i-nigma-barcode-reader-v1-4.html" target="_blank">here</a> &#8211; I went with I-nigma barcode reader&#8230; Because it&#8217;s awesome and it&#8217;s the first one I found <img src='http://www.richardcoote.co.za/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' />  you run this app, then when ever you see the special barcode thingy online / magazine, just point your phone at it and it automatically scans it, and takes you direct to the download link, it is so fucking awesome I&#8217;ve been downloading crap just to use it.</p>
<p>One of the awesome apps I downloaded from it was <a href="http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/get-hdboobs.html" target="_blank">HDboobs</a> .. It&#8217;s a pair of boobies on your phone that you can shake around! If you already  know about all this and already have a barcode reader, you can find the download link here:<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-139" title="barcode.aspx" src="http://www.richardcoote.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/barcode.aspx_1.gif" alt="barcode.aspx" width="220" height="220" /></p>
<p>Awesome right? Another cool app I found was <a href="http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/get-shakeandsave.html" target="_blank">ShakeAndSave</a>, have this program running in the backround and shake your phone no matter what program you&#8217;re running and it will take a screen shot of it and save it as a Jpeg, Png, BMP or Gif. Here&#8217;s a Twitpic of.. well Twitter that I took a screen shot of! <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-140" title="TwitterTwitpic" src="http://www.richardcoote.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/TwitterTwitpic.jpg" alt="TwitterTwitpic" width="480" height="800" /></p>
<p>Another awesome thing I came across with WM 6.5 was Microsoft my phone. It enables you to sync / backup everything on your phone on the go, where ever you are, you have a limit of 200 megs, which is a decent amount if it&#8217;s a couple of sms&#8217;s / contacts or pics you&#8217;d like to backup. It took me a couple of minutes to create an account through my phone, and wasn&#8217;t long to upload a couple of pictures and 200+ contacts and sms&#8217;s.</p>
<p>I saw something on TV a few months back that in the not so far off future, you&#8217;ll be able to use facial recognition software on your phone, take a pic of someone random and it will pull up as much information as it can about that person as well as popular social networking sites, that&#8217;s a bit creepy if you ask me, but what a good way to find out something about someone that you&#8217;re eyeing up in club? &#8220;Hey! My names frank and I LOVE dancing and riding camels in the desert!&#8221;</p>
<p>Anywho, I&#8217;m off to put on a long coat and jump around my room, swinging my new lightsabre phone around.</p>
<p>The End.</p>

<p>So, I&#8217;ve been out of a job for the past month or so, as much as I *love* sitting around at home doing nothing all day, I don&#8217;t, I hate it, it sometimes drives me to the point where I&#8217;m so bored, I irritate myself, and get angry &#8217;cause I have nothing to do. I&#8217;ve sent my CV out to a bunch of places already, but I think it is a really shitty time of the year to be looking for work. Fuck. I went for an interview last week at an insurance company in Sandton, What a waste of time, I firstly had to fill out these stupid forms while sitting on a stupid couch chair thingy, that was so low to the ground my knees where behind my fucking head. This form was so pointless, I had to finish off sentences like &#8220;My family&#8230;&#8221; and &#8220;I get angry when&#8230;&#8221; etc etc, I get angry when I have to fill out pointless forms like this while sitting on your stupid tiny chair, It looks like I&#8217;m in some cheap porno and I&#8217;m waiting to get reamed by the tiny Chinese dude running around giving everyone massages. I kid you not, they call him Mister Miyagi, he is there as an incentive.. Anyhoo, after that I went through to Rebecca&#8217;s work and we had lunch together, that was nice, then got stuck in God awful traffic on the way home. </p>
<p>Traffic, OH MY FUCK, who ever is in charge in fixing up the roads for 2010 is a complete toss. Let me start by telling you about Great North, a road I drove every day for about 5 years to and from work, it was the best road ever, 2 lanes going each way, from Benoni all the way into Kempton Park, I have so many fond memories of that road, Craig and I driving down that road next to each other, in peak traffic, doing 40 kays an hour, pissing everyone off, plenty of races down that road too. Then, last year December someone thought it would be a great idea to change the two lanes into three lanes, they worked on the third lane for months and months, until finally, they opened it, it looked so smooth, so awesome, I doubt I will ever forget the first day I got to test the new lane out, not because it was a great drive, and there was less traffic, oh no, not with the cunts that built that road, at one point, I actually thought I was going to roll my car it was so bumpy. I hate that lane now, and I never drive in it, but that&#8217;s not the end, they weren&#8217;t happy with just fucking up one lane, over the next few months they thought it would be a good idea to fuck up the other two lanes too, I don&#8217;t know why they thought it was necessary, the third lane joined just fine, there wasn&#8217;t a pavement you had to climb to get on or off it. </p>
<p>The Highway, grrr! What the fuck is the point in closing off two lanes of highway for 10 kays, if you&#8217;re not going to be doing ANY fucking work there? It took me over three fucking hours to drive 69 kays on Saturday, the highway under William Nicol was closed for road works too, so 40 million cars were crammed into 2 lanes on the offramp, where the robots were not working. There was, I&#8217;m sure, very *qualified* people directing traffic, but not really, I saw two accidents almost happen because the assholes were just waving their arms around like retards. If you&#8217;re going to be doing roadworks for months and months, at least hire people that are actually qualified to do it.</p>
<p>I just realised I left my toothbrush at Rebecca&#8217;s house this morning, fuck, now I have to use a R2 one that is more than likely going to make me bleed. Also, I&#8217;m smoking the cheapest smokes ever, if I ever had to guess what shit tasted like, this would be it. I also threw my cousin into the swimming pool today, fully dressed, that made me chuckle, he is such a good sport when it comes to things like that.</p>
<p>Now, here&#8217;s a question for you, if you had R100k to start up a business, what would you do? I know it&#8217;s not a lot, but I&#8217;ve been thinking about it for a while now, I reckon a brothel would be great for 2010, but then again, how long is that going to last? Heh. I honestly have no idea. Suggestions people! </p>
<p>I&#8217;ve been meaning to blog for the past 2 weeks, have had so many ideas, but now, I don&#8217;t, most of them went flying out the window the minute I sat down, so, what ever.</p>
<p>The End. *lick*</p>

<p>So, here it is, the questions you asked. Wish there were a few more though, this isn&#8217;t going to be long.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.twitter.com/LisaTroy" target="_blank">Lisa Troy</a> &#8211; <strong>Do you believe in love?</strong> Yes I do. But not easily.</p>
<p><strong>How many times have you been in love?</strong> Twice, I&#8217;m not the type to meet someone and tell them a week later that I love them. To me, it&#8217;s a big word, don&#8217;t throw it around if you don&#8217;t mean it.</p>
<p><strong>Would you do anything for love?</strong> Probably. I&#8217;d push an old lady off a roof for most of the people I love, then again, I know without any doubt, that they would do the same for me in a heartbeat.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.twitter.com/arcainus" target="_blank">Arcainus</a> &#8211; <strong>Most embarrassing moment? </strong>Yoh, I have lots of them, but probably my worst ever.. Last year sometime, I had just come out of  a bank and was walking past News Cafe, it was about 1.30 in the afternoon or so, hot summers day and the shopping complex was packed. Anyhoo, I notice this table sitting outside News Cafe filled with HOT gorgeous woman, hair all done up, wearing smart, sexy clothes, drinking their cocktails. I carried on walking, staring like a bafoon with my jaw dragging on the floor not noticing the fuckoff big pavement that I was walking towards. That&#8217;s right, I faceplanted, not even gracefully, I went down like a cheap date on prom night, right in front of the table of hot ladies. They all laughed, I picked myself up and limped to my car avoiding eye contact with everyone.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.twitter.com/pinkhairgirl" target="_blank">Pink Hair Girl</a> &#8211; <strong>Biggest Fear?</strong> I have many, many fears, Spiders mainly, but that&#8217;s petty shit, I can deal with it. I&#8217;d say being in a bad situation with people you really love and care about, and not being able to do anything about it, being tied up or something, and seeing someone getting hurt. No thank you.</p>
<p><strong>Wildest Dream?</strong> Winning the Euro Millions Lottery when it is at it&#8217;s high, I&#8217;m talking 150 &#8211; 200 million Euros, you do the math. I&#8217;d be a happy man, who ever said money can&#8217;t buy you happiness was a jackass, I&#8217;m sure my life would be allot better if I had over a billion in the bank.</p>
<p><strong>Boxers, underpants or nothing?</strong> I&#8217;m a tightie whitey, hate boxers during the day, especially when I&#8217;m wearing jeans, cant say I&#8217;ve ever gone commando though.</p>
<p><strong>Bum or boobs man?</strong> I must admit that I love them both, equally! Nothing better than nice cleavage! And a nice ass to grab onto while walking somewhere or doing other stuff..</p>
<p><strong>Could you give up alcohol for a month?</strong> I&#8217;m fairly certain I could, shouldn&#8217;t be THAT hard.. Right? It would probably be easier for me to give up alcohol for a month than it would be for me to give up Play.</p>
<p><strong>What can you not live without?</strong> In no particular order &#8211; Family, friends, food, air, play, my pc, my car, house, bed, cold showers in summer, internet, smokes, play, play, play, cuddling, music and play.</p>
