Not fast, just furious

Ok, so i'm jumping  on this late...but what can i say..i don't exactly have a lot of time on my hands.

I heard about the movie through Don Omar's song off the Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, cos his video features snippets of the movie and it was set in Brasil, yada yada, as you can imagine i got excited.  Fast foward to December 2011, when i do finally find the time to watch a DVDrip of it, and i can barely believe my eyes after the 1st 5 minutes.

A Powerful Hour

Is it still blogging if you only doing twice a year?

Guess we'll find out...

Dreams by Nicki Minaj needs a diss record of the year award. Yes, even with Pusha T showing that he's more effective than Maury at getting that child support. #sidehustle #receipts #HIPAAviolation
All 50 cent does is talk about Power for hours. To the point of being a troll just so the hashtag can trend, so here we go with an hour of questions and comments from the end of Season 4.

Little Havana Ghana

It seems having a Cuban themed eatery is a hallmark of any cosmopolitan city and Accra has been somewhat of a slow adopter. When it comes to culinary variety (or the lack thereof) perhaps it's the similarity of Caribbean/south american fare that makes it non-exotic or Ghanaians's less than adventurous palates in general, perhaps it's our penchant for spicy food and carbohydrate laden meals etc, but all this seems to be changing, possibly as a result of a significantly expanded expat/repat community or perhaps just plain old globalisation.

The Delifrances

Osu branch

One good thing about the D in Osu is how early they open. You would be hard pressed to find a breakfast joint on a Sunday morning, and soon you'll stop looking and just head over to DF.


The racism that is Game of Thrones

Started this in 2013, and I promise to finish before GOT is done
Watch this space

Many a blogger (and fully fledged author) have written ad nauseum about the subtle and not so sublte racist underpinnings of GOT, and while I am an avid fan, I am not blind to these slights and would like to briefly touch on them here.

In summary, there are more people of colour in Peaky Blinders than GOT.


Wise Words

I'm sure you've heard the saying: "You know you don't have to take this...you don't have to be here. You have a home." Well at times like this, such tough love anecdotes seem to be extra poignant. My personal favourite is, a spin on the good old "I can do bad all by myself" is: I can do good..no great by myself, I'm trying to do amazing with you. If only I had a sassy 'girlfriend' to remind me of this periodically...introspection gets old...and is limited by the fact that you yourself are messed up when u need to be the most straight... yourself.

In lieu of a blood and bones alter ego..i'm going to blog.

Firefly



Apparently I couldn't be bothered to write anything...for 3 years.
In summary, good music, functional ACs, average mojitos, rude bouncers, nice decor
