Oh dear Mbalula, what have you said now? It looks like an apology by the ANC to yet ANOTHER African country will need to be made after this guy went and said something rather embarrassing. Again. On Tuesday, Fikile Mbalula who is our country’s Minister of Sport and Recreation, sat at a meeting with some […]
Do you know what the petrol price is in Cape Town? It’s R13.98 per litre. Do you know what the petrol price is in Jo’burg? R14.39. The consider this: we have no control over the oil price, which is set in dollars, and the Rand to dollar exchange rate stinks worse than a day-three Afrika Burn attendee. Quick heads up: petrol isn’t getting any cheaper, any time soon.

A luggage scale is more important than you might think. Especially if you spend more time sitting in the business lounge of an airport than on your living room couch. It can become rather tiresome to constantly guess the weight of your luggage on your frequent trips or having to pay more than you actually […]
Aeroplane travel. Most of us safely assume that because planes have been built by ENGINEERS and that pilots have spent a million hours completing flight school that we must be in good hands. Right? Actually what happens in the cabin of an aeroplane is not always as sanitary and efficient as you may think. There […]
Adhering to BEE legislation is a vital part of your responsibility as a business person in South Africa, but more than a handful of people shy away from starting their own enterprises because they imagine that the the paperwork involved, including obtaining a BEE certificate isn’t worth the major effort. Reality check: it’s dead easy. […]
The NBA‘s Clippers Team owner, Donald Sterling, no longer owns his own team. Shame. NBA commissioner Adam Silver made this call and banned poor old Donald from his own team because apparently Donald is racist and Adam is not. Let us explain: Sterling made some pretty outlandishly racist comments, which were then recorded and published […]
Do you see what’s happening with the weather today? Take a look. Take one damned good look. It’s gone to hell in a handbasket, and there are only a few decent days left. A dozen real stunners, if we’re lucky. You have to make those guys count – in that spirit we’ve put together this […]

As we head towards Season 2 of the Oscar Pistorius trial (starts May 5), a blogger’s interpretation of the timeline presented by Oscar Pistorius is being passed around. Here it is..
Think about that for a second. TWO WEEKS. One thing I must say is they are very good at telling me on Twitter Direct Message that the issue has been ‘escalated’ and it ‘needs to be resolved,’
You won’t believe who just broke up. ‘Knox dealt fatal blow.’ SA elections are under way. Khanyi punished for Reeva comment. David Geffen wants Clippers. Google and co’s ‘Manchine’ race. iWatch in production. MH370 plane wreckage claim.
If you haven’t read it yet, now might be the time to do so. Jade Mitchell’s blog received some serious attention last week when she posted a scathing observation about Capetonians and their unwarranted sense of superiority towards themselves and their city. Titled “Go F***ck Yourself Cape Town” , the piece details an array of […]
Amal Alamuddin is undoubtedly unique in terms of the ‘type’ George Clooney has previously been known to date. Looking at Clooney’s history of models/actresses/waitresses, it safe to say that Amal is the cream of the crop.

Celebrity publicist Max Clifford has been found guilty of a multiple crimes against four women, some of whom were underage at the time of the attacks. of During his trial, the sex offender couldn’t resist the lure of the media.

A local clothing and apparel company called Dranged (do you think they know they spelled that wrong?) leveraged the awesome power of social media last week to promote their brand. Except that they used a convicted hate crime murderer, and they seemed pretty chuffed about it.
Oh dear. It’s so easy to forget just how quickly time flies when one discovers that Victoria Bekham, the former Spice Girl known as ‘Posh Spice’ recently celebrated her 40th birthday at the Arts Club in Mayfair. Victoria doesn’t seem to phased by her near ancient age however. In fact this horrifyingly-hot-considering-birthing-four-kids former pop-star decided […]
Pinot Noir – two words you’ve been hearing a lot, lately. The delicate grape has enjoyed some serious attention recently, and with the likes of Ard Matthews spouting these sorts of statements wherever he goes, we’re hardly surprised: “I’m convinced that Pinot Noir is one part heat-sensitive grape and 99 parts angel blood. It is the perfect blend between rosé and red, which means it can and must be drunk as often as possible, where possible, if possible.”

L.A. Clippers owner Donald Sterling told his girlfriend, V Stiviano he does not want her bringing black people to his games, including Magic Johnson. It was too bad for Don that she got it all on tape, because since the release of the tape over a dozen sponsors have abandoned the team.

Trust the Chinese to do something quicker, faster and more efficiently. Worker bees that they are. So what the industrious Orientals have managed to do this time, is literally build ten one-storey houses in a DAY by using 3D printing technology.

Wow. So a few things come to mind here: Ritual Satanic sacrifice or a bad acid trip being on the top of the list. Last Wednesday morning a pretty grizzly discovery was made in a vacant parking lot in Yonkers, New York. At least 25 dead cats which had been placed in plastic shopping bags […]
