It never ceases to amaze me how easy it is for The TBG to adapt to normal situations with normal people, talking about normal things. He just seems to know how to put the whole room at ease. Again, it’s just his aura and his sheer brilliance and genius. Just look at this latest sighting. […]
A handful of people send me links to this website called No Bucks, which is an “online portal of happy hours, specials and budget nights out in Cape Town.” I enjoyed the concept but didn’t know if it fitted “the vibe” correctly. But then I remembered that getting deals and paying less would take anyone […]
ANC Youth League President Julius Malema , who was recently referred to as Julia Malema in an article (here) about gold medalist Caster Semen’s gender controversy, has defended his statement that white people did not come out to support gold medalist Caster Semenya at the airport when she arrived home.

South Africa is a complicated place. The mind boggles at some of the stuff that goes down here- strikes, senseless killings, corruption and divided politics are things that we, as South Africans, deal with on a daily basis. It has apparently gotten so bad, that certain individuals qualify for refugee status abroad. But watching the […]
How awesome is this? I’m fine with that. [thanks allard]
I’ve seen her around town at the right events and establishments, being a good model – looking pretty and laughing at the correct times. And then she turned up again on Thursday night last week at the Cosmopolitan Lingerie Fashion Show. On the ramp, no less! Mine eyes were pleased. What do we have […]

No, I’m not joking. Seriously. Pinch yourself. See? It hurts. I wouldn’t lie to you, my baby. This is real life and it’s real time. See? It’s real! I seriously hope I don’t need to introduce this rabble to you. Because, for me, I feel like I’m stuck in some kind of nativity […]

Public Enemy was one of the films that cemented Jimmy Cagney in the old Hollywood. No, they didn’t erect a statue and he didn’t get dropped off at the docks. It was his extraordinary career performance as Tom Powers that gave rise to the gangster picture and set Cagney up as the ultimate tough guy. […]

So Marie Claire magazine ran a story (current issue) on shocking fashion and advertising images. The ad agency, NETWORK BBDO, got excited and pitched an idea to Marie Claire – an ad for Marie Claire on that very same topic. Marie Claire rejected the idea as it didn’t suit their brand. BBDO loved it regardless […]

Answer : very cool! With a jet-pack like that attached to his back, one would hope the owner got some pet insurance for this hound? Don’t want that thing flying into walls and stuff. [thanks nikki]
I was in “comms” with Dom Peters from Goldfish this week and, while he and Dave are carving up the earth and the models that come with it, that doesn’t mean they don’t miss the fairest Cape. Dom writes: Off to London for the weekend, then Barcelona on Monday, then Brazil for a week. […]

It’s common knowledge that Hugh Hefner ‘s life is loosely based on mine and I wish to expand on that. In particular, I am referring to the article entitled “Down the Rabbit Hole” featured in this weekend’s Lifestyle section of this weekend’s Sunday Times newspaper. The article discussed the newly-published author Izabella St James and […]
White 31 year old, Brandon Huntley, has managed to get as far as he can from the Mowbray mean streets. Canada were happy to take him on. This, from the Ottawa Sun : An Ottawa man has been granted refugee status after an immigration board panel ruled he would be likely be persecuted if […]
A buddy of mine is a partner at the Simbavati River Lodge , which is situated in the northern sector of the Timbavati Nature Reserve. He sent me an excited email yesterday with a link to a Youtube video. It was a recently taken clip of an elephant giving birth during a tourist game drive. […]
I don’t often suffer from diva-like behaviour. Not because I’m not capable of it, but more because I seem to deal with people who understand good hospitality, rendering the notion impossible. Let’s take Cosmopolitan magazine, for example – who on Thursday night hosted the 2009 Comopolitan Lingerie Fashion Show at Wembley Square. I […]
Guys, guys, guys, guys, GUYS! And GIRLS! You have bought your tickets for The Killers, playing in Cape Town on December 6, right? Because if you haven’t, I’d shake a leg if I were you – they’ll be sold out when Cape Town suddenly realises what is going on. Then you’ll look like a right […]
It’s that time of the month again.. as we remove the best of the rubbish you send me which gathers dust on my desktop, and release it onto the United Internet. We’ll kick off with this genius, sent in by Trev: Wrong way, my love. Then this absolute gem, spotted by Phillip, somewhere […]
After kidnapping her 18 years ago, Phillip Garrido kept Jaycee Dugard in his backyard and fathered two children with her. Garrido is a convicted sex offender and suddenly, out of the blue, walked into a California police station with the victim by his side. He told authorities that God had spoken to him. Obviously. This, […]

A Microsoft ad published in Poland is causing a bit of a nightmare for the company. You see, the same ad was being used in the US, except the one in the US featured a black gentleman in the middle. He was removed for the Polish version. Enjoy these very average Photoshop skills: Now […]
Twas earlier this year I showed you some wonderful images (here) of the hairdresser in the Woodstock region of Cape Town, claiming to be masters at the Obama Haircut. You may recall their tagline, “Looking neat is our target. Change your look? Yes we can!” You remember it now, right? If you don’t it seems […]
THAT just happened! It’s name is Carla Velli and it is an Italian actress. That pic was taken this last week in Miami. There are more pics – some of them ever so slightly NSFW. But that’s up to you whether you want to see them or not. I don’t know – maybe topless […]
Right, so you saw Crank and enjoyed it… well done. To say Crank had a lot of heart is an understatement. The public display of affection, the pulsating action, the heart-stopping moments and the heartbeat bass were incredible and Jason Statham wasn’t too bad either. The original had the action reflex of a kung-fu squirrel […]
