09 Feb 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
A valiant effort was made late last Wednesday by two daring would-be Mexican immigrants. The two, suited up in full wetsuits, made an assault on Imperial Beach, just a few kilometres south of San Diego with the aid of dive scooters. Until a US Customs and Border Protection helicopter crew spotted them.

Only A Quarter Of A Percent Of The Sky Searched
04 Feb 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Nasa has discovered a new habitable planetary system. Needless to say, calling the new system part of the Kepler-11 is mildly ironic considering what is being sent to orbit the pitches and dressing rooms of the approaching Cricket World Cup. But we won’t go there and that’s not what this is about either, it’s much more important.

02 Feb 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
A competition has just kicked off looking for “Stephenie Meyer’s Biggest Superfan”, with South Africa identified as one of the 10 biggest Twilight countries in the world. This should also explain why Nelson Mandela was in hospital last week.

17 Jan 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
It’s good to see our antipodean friends still have a sense of humour after all the flooding and disaster that’s hit them. An enterprising couple looked out their bedroom window yesterday, saw the river was coming down hectically and decided to go for a joy ride on blow up dolls when the plan, well, blew up in their faces.

God, I love living in the future. Don’t you? Four driverless, electric vans arrived in Shanghai yesterday after a 13,000km ‘test drive’ from Italy. They had no maps, and they stopped to pick up a hitchhiker on the way.

Crocodiles On A Plane
22 Oct 2010 by Jasmine Stone / 2 Comments
The sudden appearance of a crocodile onboard a routine flight in the Democratic Republic of Congo led to the plane crashing, killing 20. Only one passenger survived the crash, along with the crocodile; the crocodile was then killed with a machete. We’re not sure why this movie hasn’t been made yet.

THERE’S NO ACCOUNTING FOR GLOBAL TASTE
25 Aug 2010 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Singapore – Doesn’t suck We’re already living in a global village. So the idea of national borders is becoming increasingly strained. Gallup has released data describing where in this big village respondents would re-locate if exorbitant costs (i.e. Visas and travel fees) and international borders weren’t part of the process. “Sulplise!” Most people said they’d […]

No spice, the Dutch soccer team needs a place to stay. While the Uruguayans were getting an undeserved peaceful night’s sleep in Newlands (despite a small Twitter campaign calling for Capetonians to please “not” blow vuvuzelas and bang drums outside their rooms), the dutchies were bumming around the Cape of Good Hope looking for a […]

20 May 2010 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
ESPN is a great repository for sporting news. Especially news from the Baltic states. Take Finland, for example. Finland is the home of Sauna (that’s right, with a capital “S”). This relaxing past tie has been exported in various forms and varieties the world over, such is humankind’s love for a good, cleansing sweat. But […]

THE AFRIKA IS ON FIRE
29 Apr 2010 by Jasmine Stone / 1 Comment
Our more trippy readers might know that the Afrika Burns festival, South Africa’s newest excuse to get totally baked in the desert, wrapped up on Tuesday after five brightly-coloured days of parallel universes, flying dragons and fire. And lets not forget the odd bout of “let’s chain the 11 year olds to the front of […]

03 Mar 2010 by Jasmine Stone / 1 Comment
My buddy David Grier is in the mix again – and this time is slightly different to his earlier vibes, when he completed the first ever joint continuous run of the Great Wall of China, some 4000km in 98 days. Ja, I thought that might refresh your memory! So check this out – he’s taking […]
