Toyota Mark X GRX 120: A Gem Hidden in Plain Sight
It’s the early 2000s. The .com boom and bust has come and cleared. Fortunes. The SUV craze has not yet become a full-blown epidemic exhibited by a love for SUVs and crossovers that handle like a girl who just bought her first pair of high heels. Which means that most car manufacturers had spent the […]
Men Grow Through Multiple Failures
I recently went to the bar for the first time in a long time. It is in bars where men feel complete, they shed their worries, have some lone time, process their feelings, and strategize. Sometimes the end game doesn’t always look like such but it’s a go-to place for men with burdens or seeking […]
Lead Your Woman: No Two Ways About it
I sometimes hang out in restaurants just to observe how couples walk in, how they talk to each other, how they are physical with each other, and you can always tell how old the relationship is, whether the lady loves and respects the man if the guy is democratic, dominant, or laissez-faire. Sometimes I look […]
Want Better Gifts from Women? Design your Bachelor Pad Better
Designing a home is a deeply personal task and journey, so it strikes me as absurd and somewhat curious that so many men leave all interior design decisions to the women in their lives. It’s no wonder a significant chunk of the male population gets home in the wee hours of the night to avoid […]
The Kraft of Making Beer
Maybe it’s the January heat but good watering holes in this city are proving to be elusive and decent ones seem to be spreading thin leaving eager gents with a dry throat no option but to settle for second best. So I weave myself through Nairobi’s hellish traffic, in between honking cars and unruly boda […]
What is the Best Whiskey for Each Age Bracket?
By The Kenyan Bar Guy I don’t know what about whiskey that has everyone’s panties in a bunch. The golden-brown liquid that comes from rye, barley, wheat, and corn was actually used as an antibiotic before but in all irony, it does not stop the spread of the infection that is the whisky culture. Which […]
Cigars: The Art and Craft of Making Them
You have probably seen it with your celebrities or even politicians like Fidel Castro, Winston Churchill, Che Guevara and wondered what is the big deal? The Cigar. The Cigar is just tobacco. But there is a specialized way to grow it so that you achieve the highest potency. It starts in greenhouses. Greenhouses are created […]
You are no longer a savior of the world; you are the world that needs to be saved.
The stone age man that existed hundreds of thousand years ago had one thing that informed his life’s meaning: survival. Survival from mortally threatening dangers, from animals to diseases to natural calamities. He needed to find food, unlike other animals that have claws and sharp teeth, or his closest species the chimps that have thumbed […]
Farcing Champagne Ridge
I started cycling about three months ago. The other day, a female friend asked me if cycling “adds stamina.” I remained tight-lipped about that. This adventure ride I had, that I’m about to narrate to you, might just be the proverbial brew that lets loose secrets held behind these tight lips. The title of this […]
