The Amazing Race to Dinner 2011
Posted by ymartiny | Filed under General
Silence stood in sharp contrast to the chants and deafening cheers that ended just a while back at the kick-off of this year’s Amazing Race to Dinner at Green Point Park (due to opened the next day). Twenty-two teams were waiting in anxious anticipation for that sound that so many Capetonians know; the noon day gun. It was to start a race that would take them all from Bellville to Goodwood, the CBD to Houtbay and then Greenpoint, Obs to Kenilworth and finally to the dinner venue. After seven stops and tasks, one team would stand victorious and claim the title for 2011. For fun, for Cape Town, for friends and ultimately, and most importantly, for a first-class cause: iThemba House
‘Box’ Wine Humor …

A husband and wife are shopping in their local supermarket.
The husband picks up a 2L box wine and puts it in their trolley.
‘What do you think you’re doing?’ asks the wife.
‘They’re on sale, only R30 for the box” he replies.
‘Put it back, we can’t afford it’ demands the wife, and so they carry on shopping.
A few aisles further on, the woman picks up a R60 jar of face cream and puts it in the basket.
What do you think you’re doing?’ asks the husband.
‘It’s my face cream. It makes me look beautiful,’ replies the wife.
Her husband retorts: ‘So does the 2L wine, and it’s half the price.’
Lady Gaga knows which cut she is, which cut are you?

So Y² was recently invited to attend the launch of a new restaurant, Café Dijon in Stellies, with their speaker/owner Angus … or so I thought! It was actually the launch of a new beef called Angus at an already established restaurant on Plein Street. The speaker was from AgriSA with a very Afrikaans name; Klasie Jacobs. He is actively involved in the Angus Beef Association, and a cattle farmer himself.

and Net So!! … another blog is born, in a matter of minutes, with the help of my friends over at 406 HQ. Luv your stuff!!
Yip, it is brand spanking new and aimed to stimulate those electric power bursts in your cranium (i.e. rock your thoughts) and take you through the weird and wonderful world of being human and normal according to your own definition … through my ‘ogies’ of course.
So, sit back and light a fag, think it over and engage only if you have something intellectual to say – there is no reward for stupidity!
