How to obtain a US iTunes Account
Posted by Hans Haupt in Internet, Meme, Music Monday, Seriously?!, Technology, WTF on 28 August 2010
Time and time again I am asked how I managed to obtain access to a US iTunes store account. Well, the answer is fairly simple. I just created one.
I know what you are thinking: “How the heck did he do that”?
Poodle Doodles

A new trend has emerged. That of turning your beloved canine friend into a mobile work of ‘art’. I use the term ‘art’ loosely here, of course.
Essentially people are cutting and dying the hair of poodles and other unfortunately fluffy dogs, to resemble other creatures, such as Panda’s, Pirates and Fairy’s. It is as crazy as it sounds and the results are just as mind numbingly hilarious.
Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow

Well there go my 2010 New Years Resolutions.
Yes, I have been quite the slacker when it comes to updating my blog. I have no excuses this time though. Truth be told, I have just not felt like updating.

Music Monday: ‘Waka Waka’
Posted by Hans Haupt in Entertainment, Meme, Music Monday, Seriously?! on 31 May 2010
Hey Milieunairs,
It is Music Monday and thus time for another Vivaciously Varietal Vibe!
-
Flavour: Pop
-
Artist: Shakira feat. Freshly Ground
-
Album: CD Single
Rationale: For those who do not know, and unless you have been hovelled in some cave somewhere, South Africa will be hosting the 2010 FIFA World Cup.
Other than our beautiful country scrambling to get ready for the event, quite a process in patience for its citizens, FIFA have released the official 2010 FIFA World Cup song.
Although many South Africans were rather peeved that the song was not performed entirely by a South Africans, I do believe that FIFA did the right thing by approaching Shakira. Truth be told, and in my opinion, we needed a famously ‘international’ artist to carry the song. Granted, we do have a lot of talent in South Africa but the problem is, how much of that talent is really recognised by the rest of the world? Knowing FIFA, they wanted to make a big splash and there was no better way to do that then to associate their brand with an already popular and well known artist.
Besides, our very own Freshly Ground feature in the song. Take that, all you naysayers. I still think they should have thrown in a few Vuvuzela’s for authenticity… *runs off to irritate the neighbours with his own Vuvu*.
Check the song out below and let me know what you think!
As always, whenever I post about Vivaciously Varietal Vibes on Music Monday’s, simply click on the name of the song to be taken to a web page that displays the songs lyrics.
Until the next time, “Milieunairs”!

As if working on ‘102 Random Facts About Me’ was not enough, @JessicaMcD has, courtesy of her blog, once again inspired me to follow through with another number centric post: ‘99 Things’.
The ‘99 Things’ idea is to look at this list of 99 things you could have done, and bold the ones that you actually have done!
Here we go…
