sounds like a flashback to Saturday morning :) OK ...
focus ...
I'm Mike (but you already knew that!) and I'm in
Seattle (you knew that too!) got here from Zimbabwe (in
Africa) via a few years in South Africa and several LONG
plane trips!
What am I doing here you ask? Working (mostly),
partying, having fun and living life (in no particular
order)! The rest is all details...

maze of blinking lights and the DING
DING DING of machines eating money
everywhere, just so I could get my
sunglasses that I left on the breakfast
table. He is another delightful friend
who I live far far away from. If we
lived closer we would go to yoga
together and wax poetic about being
centered and focused. Action with
Awareness my man! It was great getting
to know you better and I hope I have an
oppertunity to give you another big hug
soon! Come to AZ! Post Haste!!! YAY
MIKE! :o)
start. Your thoughts on music,
movies, and life in general are so
similar to mine and that's why you
rule! You are a true friend that
cares about all that take the time to
get to know you and all of your
complicated ways.....rock on
Mike....."Hell Yeah!!!!!".
Reserved. Yoga practitioner.
Intellectual. Friendly. Until he has
12 Red Bull Vodkas. Then- he's back
on the savannah, running alongside the
lions and mighty wildebeests. Stay
out of his way when he is in this
frenzied, primal state. He is the
African Hulk. And alcohol is his
gamma ray. Only the kind herb acts as
an antidote. Luckily, I am a ninja
and am much faster than this lumbering
giant. I use my finely tuned skills
of diplomacy and evasion when facing
off against his uncoordinated ass.
Mike likes to yell at people on the
street. Mike likes to start fights in
New Orleans. Mike is bald, but looks
good in a wig. Mike spits in his
dog's mouth. Mike has killed and
eaten more animals than I knew
existed. It is cheaper to wipe your
ass with Mike's country's currency
than with toilet paper. The girls
like Mike, and show him their tits
whenever he wants. Mike hates veggies
but loves bovril. Mike eats chocolate
and drinks coffee like its going out
of style. Mike is my traffic-riding
co-pilot and ganja tokin' bruva. Glad
to have him here stateside where he
doesn't have to wait a week to fill
his car up with gas. Big up yo'self
Zimbo. Jah smiles upon you.
have to get together more often!
scattergories, kickball, redbull
vodkas! hooraaaahh!
My life would have been a poorer place
without one long ago drunken night at
Harleys. And a plastic eye.
genuinely pessimistic remark - gotta
love it :-) If you werent a Zimbo I
may love you more but for now I'll say
I really like you. Its been fucking
wicked living with you you calm bitch
(exceot in traffic - then its hulk
hogan all the way!) - keep tokin'
Josh
uproar, we've happily accepted him
here into OUR family! What a stellar
guy--always willing to give a friend a
lift, pick up after their messes, pour
them a glass of vino, hand out some
biltong and load a bowl. Grans and
mums love him! Or at least mine do.
He has some great knowledge to pass on
about said tokolosh and spitting in
your pets mouth. Always ready to
dumbfound with wisdom! He's a smarty,
let me tell you, and ladies, THAT
ACCENT!!! So exotic. Did I say he
loves kitties? He does, and they love
him. I could go on, but why spoil the
mystery. I love my dear Mike and
can't imagine Seattle without
him...hopefully I never will.
have ever met. He's a real Gem. I
could not have asked for a better
freind. There is never a dull moment
when Mike's about!
badmintonly inclined, this Bruv kicks
it root down & then back up again.
Mike looks after all specimen of
kitties galore. Whether you need a
human seatbelt or a fine glass of wine
when you are already trashed, Mike is
there for you. Special bonus: Mike
can describe flavors of animals you
thought only existed in Milton Bradley
games.
