Saturday off... here with my girlfriend... so in love, so happy, so relaxed, worked on my script this morning so don't feel too guilty about the Whiskey I'm having now... or three that I had earlier... teehee... SHE ROCKS SO MUCH! Look I have nothing significant to say... just wanna blog and express one simple feeling... I'm content... and this is what I'm feeling...
Mind you, few Saturdays ago, before ten am - Saw the Bulls loose to the Blues, had three Bloody Marys - helped my nephew with his potty training and then went on to a day to remember... but can't remember squat...
Well, that's it...
Side note: please join the Binge fan group on Facebook - a wicked South African flick we're making... need all the support! true to life social comedy!

a few thoughts about BINGE the movie
BINGE is a metaphor, a hub if you will for the SA social vigilantes; A market place of people who wonder more around in this overabundant market of choice and doubt… in a sense we talk more than we deliver; not in a procrastinating way, but in a manner that we KNOW that we have to have our ammo locked, ducks in a row, If you want to be a risk taker.
Then you have to make absolutely fucking sure that your backers… have your back. Within our country we have so many opportunities, but in order to truly make it we have to take that extra proverbial step, before you take the step that you truly want to… need to.
… But at least we have fun while we take life seriously. Binge is a story that shows that most of our important, constitutional & idealistic decisions are made with our friends, our families, on our own, our colleagues, with all or with none… but always in a social manner…with a dop… in the other hand a tong, clamping a chop.
To interject… actually to conclude… to BINGE: to live, to love, to hate, to hold, to yield, to yearn, to work, to slack, to crawl, to thirst, to LIVE, to laugh, to cry, to fall, to move in many directions, to rise, to be, to run, to do all in abundance... but at least... all in all... to find one's balance...

Comparing dick sizes… the ballad of the modern man while the woman patiently waits for the chorus.
Okay... sorry, but I always wanted to have a long title… HA! Anyways… this is one for the guys… can someone PLEASE explain to me what the deal is with all the flippin’ “movements”…. I mean like Alpha Male, Alpha Man, Metro Man… really? I mean seriously? Really? What the F*#K?
Bare with me, really going with the Emerson theory here… If I offend… so sad.
After the Bad Boy age and then the Nice Guy Underdog age… came the dreaded closet case Metro Man! What the hell is that? Okay, I can still get a manicure and then get a fitted soft silk shirt with my designer hair and shoes before I do a ruthless hostile take over, I’m like so rough! Grrrr! The worst… the women going for those guys. “He’s so in touch with his feminine side.” …. REALLY? One step too far! Oh and the man bag… even gay guys are going “WTF?” Finding Christmas presents yet? We all know that phase died out quickly, they listened to that little voice and came out! Great awesome! Got loads of gay friends, all cool people, in touch with who they are, DON”T HAVE TO ACT LIKE THE OPPOSITE SEX! Just note, not arguing the fact that one must look after oneself… just saying… lipstick for men? Really?
Well the flame burnt out at least…
But from the ashes rose the Alpha Man…
Neil Strauss, author of The Game, defines the Alpha Man as a guy who looks after himself (grooming minus the frosted tips), opens the door for a lady and still at the end of the day he doesn’t have to justify that he’s a guy, a man. Okay cool, I get that… but why and what the hell with all the tacts, the labels, the “keep them guessing” and “Keep them wanting more”…???
Side note: it’s like that stupid con job AKA The Secret… grootste klomp kak! The Secret that is… Um hallo people.. yes you who read, digested and applied The Secret (the obvious)… it IS CALLED LOGIC!!! You want something, you figure out a way to get it and you go for it!!!!!! Sounds familiar doesn’t it? Reaction requires action? Yes… no…yes? Be lethargic and expect the world to deliver… of course not! Age old fact!!! Here comes one fucking book and movie and everyone all of a sudden “gets it”… wow… blood pressure rising… gimme a second………………………………………………………………okay I’m good.
…where was I ? Oh yeah, Alpha man… WTF??? Same thing as The Secret, called being a gentleman, a confident well balanced guy, a nice guy who will open the car door for his girl, still stands up for himself, his woman, family and friends and can pee standing up. I’m not trying to slate the guy’s work, he is a pioneer, and I get it. My problem is this, why with the mindless following, the “grouping” the comparing of dick sizes.
From Bad Boy to Alpha Man! Didn’t forget about the Alpha Male… no comment, we know him well, fist before words, uses women, no respect for his friends (especially when he cheats cause “he can” and sleeps with his best mate’s girl), the guy who really prefers to be a doos cause of his own shortcomings, believes you treat her like dirt and she’ll be your bitch… sad part, women who go for that… REALLY? Says much about her… doesn’t it? The guy who sets us back a few decades by just opening his mouth. The oh so awesome Alpha Male… sad…
The ultimate spear head here is this… while we are on the field comparing dick sizes and redefining our current male status quo, the women… the woman you were meant to be with is standing on the side lines and waiting for you to figure your shit out!
Our parents taught us ALL this as we were growing up right? Be a good person, be strong, confident, brush your teeth, clip your nails, find your independence and be who you are! I say screw all the labels, status quos and ‘current definitions’… find your best qualities and apply them! Done… deal? Shweet!
Do all of it… whatever it is that makes you happy and further allows you to be yourself. Find her, she’s there, she sees you. Invite her onto the field to play the real game with you. Be you… a man… no Alpha, no Metro…
…just you.
Be good or great at it… much love… much respect… stay chunky… till next time.

Love... oh k#k!
I figure once in my life I have to get this out... once and for all... spit it out so I can look at it clearly (look at love clearly... HA, I know right?) But dammit I have to try.
THEN later... a love flick AKA Chick Flick.. panty dropper... guy killer... you know, a love story that will even have the guys almost in tears.. just almost.. cause they too proud... "Ag nee man, dis net vir moffies hierie!" translation for the English "F*&K this shit for a movie!".. but in the shower later he'll be curled up crying like that dude from The Crying Game... minus the 'misunderstanding'.
Ah love... "To love means renouncing strength." <- look at that, what do you make of that? Can easily be misconstrued right? I get it if you have scars jading you from the past. I mean strength as in too much pride and way too many barriers that need to be dropped.
With true understanding, compassion and respect for the other, your partner, that strength will in turn be safe, that heart is appreciated and always... safe. If true willingness to have understanding, compassion and respect is THERE, and forever present, for the other... you are on the right track to know love... remember that, and that alone.
One does become vulnerable if one opens up and allows love to take over... find your balance then.
Love is just that understanding and respect for boundaries... right? It's the feeling of all emotions embedded into your eyes and only for the other to see... they may take a look... your safe with that person mos?
Now you could say to reach that level of respect, compassion and understanding you have to open yourself to the point where you are totally exposed, the core is bare... that isn't a bad thing though... with the right person. You'll know who that person is... you'll have NO FEAR to expose your core to them.
I think love is usually feared cause it is misunderstood and even perceived as a fool's emotion... why not walk blind... we walk blind around most thoughts and emotions... us a bit of cautions hope and take the leap... from current experience... it feels great...
NOW, hear me out, I've feared it myself.. way too many-a-times but then I realised; expose enough, then totally when safe and know when light is green.. look into her eyes... brother... you'll know.
You know what... for fuck sakes, IT'S LOVE PEOPLE!!! Not the eternal damnation of the soul... It's when you wake up next to that person and and they have that morning white sticky stuff and they have the eyes of the living dead and the breath... no comment... but to you they still are the most beautiful being ever. When you see the evil side come out but you know that good heart is still pounding and you help it to overcome this battle in the dark... when you kiss and your knees go weak and even you lift your foot all girly like... not her... when you can't get enough... when you could give all... when you'll give your last breath so she can have a thousand more... She's your best friend... your enemy... your lover and partner... Even when you falling apart and end back in nappies and always look like you chewing on jelly... and so does she but you still wanna slap that sweet ass... that... my friends... is love...
"All these words I just don't say, and nothing else matters. Trust I seek and I find in you, everyday for us something new, open mind for a different view... and nothing else matters."
- Nothing Else Matters, Metallica
Couldn't have said it better. You know what... Love is what it is... We each will know when we see it... when we find it...
Be good or great at it!
Love Reg (hahaha... see what I did there)

Mental Domination... a work in progress
Well, here I am... my first blog... hmmmm... I guess it'll only be appropriate to dedicate it to my first proper script... The one seed that sprouted and grew, evolved... branched (look at me go with the whole symbolic and metaphoric thing here, HA) and became this forest of thoughts... all ripe and full of life's fleshy truths and bullshit. This seed you ask? "What the fuck?" What is going on, why, how, when, what?????????? The list went on... my head was about to explode... I had to spit it out. I had to write it down - of course I had to, I HAD to see the little bugger that kept me awake soooooooooooooooooooooooooo many a night - and write it down I did. Since I was studying drama at the time I thought that writing it into a play would be appropriate. Cause only when it is 'appropriate' is it the only way that we can make sense of something mos... once it's skull f#%$#d us for a good while of course.
So I appropriately let it all out...manifested it into two beings infused in a mental battle, this being between the CONSCIOUS and the SUBCONSCIOUS, and titled it MENTAL DOMINATION... quite catchy ne? Well I was chuffed...
Note: My writing style is very 'raw'... so very uncensored, very unedited, very explicit... so if it offends... Well try again... maybe you'll see what I 'm saying... expression is about telling it like it is... So I don't sugar coat it...
We all have something that is ours alone, our own soul goal, some package of sort, some sort of manual mind given to us by God to solve that completes us. Mental Domination is what I like to call it, my mind's own capabilities, my walls, barriers, limitations, set before me that i set for myself, what we set for ourselves. There is never a quarrel or questioning of the unnecessary unknowns but should only question the vital unknowns and a friendly quarrel, challenge with oneself, myself. The conquering of the unknown in one to determine whom you really are and want to be.
It is the alpha pro-ideal... the meaning of life.. in my eyes anyway. To solve this manual and live a good life without having to rely on auto-pilot cause, well then, you get results like Julius Malema... no need to explain further... do I? The purpose of life is to question and discover the unknown but in order to do so we have to question and discover the unknown in ourselves first... completing the 'training schedule' - which is reset every day cause well life has a sick sense of humour and needs to be entertained - and in turn progressing in one's own Mental Domination and then using it to be happy, live, love, compromise, trust, fail, fall, smile, cry... to progress and evolve as a human being and well.... just be. Oneself.
This requires for one to take stock take time and look at one's characteristics such as lust, faith, good faith, perception of our senses, Justice, respect, individualism, etc, etc.
It’s your mind… play the game… conquer it… but take your time… know thy ‘enemy’… learn your weaknesses… befriend it… and live…
