Severe Pain

I have no idea why someone would volunteer to be exposed to such pain, but hey, not everyone is mentally sound. All I can say, is that this must have hurt like hell! Please guys, think before you expose yourself to such gruesome incidents.

Why!?


Rolls Royce: Phantom Vs. 200EX

One of my favourite cars has to be the Rolls Royce Phantom. I much prefer rolling up in style than in just a fast flashy car. For me, the Rolls Royce Phantom is the epitomy of style. That is probably the car that I want to own most if I can.

Now all of a sudden, I see this new baby on the market. It is called the “Baby Rolls”. Now I am in two minds. Which one is better? The new improved cheaper rolls or the classic Phantom? Choices, choices, choices.

They are fairly similar yes, but there are differences between these two awesome cars. So which one would you take? The Phantom or the 200EX?

Nando’s Forced to Pull Ad

So I have finally seen the advert that is causing quite a storm in the media. I find the advert quite funny actually, but I will let you decide that for yourself.

I found this on news24

“The ANC Youth League on Tuesday called for the immediate withdrawal of the “disgusting” Nando’s television and radio advertisements.

The league said the advertisements used “cheap satire” to undermine electoral politics in South Africa.

“We are fully aware that the advertisement is intended at mocking the president of the ANCYL, and in a racist fashion portrays political leaders as cartoons.”

The television adverts feature a puppet named Julius – which could be a reference to ANCYL leader Julius Malema – who demands “change”.

The league said it has commissioned its lawyers to investigate.

Legal advice

“While awaiting the legal advice, the ANCYL instructs the Nando’s Company and those who did the advertisement to promptly withdraw the advert from all television screens and radio channels.

“If Nando’s does not withdraw the adverts, the ANCYL will mobilise the people of South Africa to take militant action against Nando’s and anything associated with Nando’s.”

Nando’s marketing manager Sylvester Chauke said Nando’s went with the political theme because “it is what is happening in the country at the moment”.

“Our advertisements are not a stab at Julius Malema at all. What is it that Nando’s said in the advert that is negative about him?… If only I could have an answer to that.”"
