14 Mar 2011 by Seth Rotherham / 1 Comment
I don’t blame you if that headline seems confusing. There are way too many “wow-factor” words launching at your face at once. It seems impossible and your brain actually shuts down for a moment – an early warning system our bodies have developed over centuries – stopping our heads from exploding. Some of you might […]

11 Mar 2011 by Seth Rotherham / 20 Comments
Gang, we’re facing a serious problem. It affects our daily happiness. It affects our ability to be effective human beings. I’m talking about the creeping, evil tendency for wolves among us to insist on work commitments on Friday afternoons. Or on Fridays at all. Don’t these people value life? Look, I’ve talked extensively about this […]

Beijing Is Tracking All Mobile Phone User’s Movements
04 Mar 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
They can do that now. By ‘they’ I mean ‘those with money and de facto power,’ obviously, not specifically the heads of the PRC – but I mean government scrutiny of human movement is being implemented on a huge, huge scale. It’s called the Information Platform of Real-time Citizen Movement – which sounds like a good and reasonable platform.

The “Manyi” Bill, Let’s Crunch Those Numbers
03 Mar 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 1 Comment
Oh, you didn’t know that cabinet has already approved this little racial nugget? Well, basically it’s just waiting for a few more signatures now before it forces change upon us. According to the SA Institute of Race Relations, who kindly did crunch the numbers for everyone, a lot of job loss and not much job creation is in order.

How To Back Up Your Gmail Account
02 Mar 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Try this old chestnut on for size: prevention is better than cure. It is also said that hindsight is 20/20. Some Gmail users will be experiencing the emotional mechanics of these two philosophical musings after the online email giant “lost” the entire contents of 148 000 user accounts earlier in the week. We thought we’d share a little advice.

It was one of those killer sunsets tonight. You know, the kind that makes you go, “oh my effing word check that sunset where is my camera!” That’s exactly what I did tonight at The Safe House and I sent it out as a tweet. So for those of who who don’t follow me on […]

I’ve been rolling with a new range of golf shirts of late, thanks to Merchants On Long. You might have seen them before – with the embroided warrior, raising his shield.

It’s a happy thought. Especially because they’ve been holding the naked sledding world championships in Braunlage, which they tell me is in Germany – a country with a rich history in this noble endeavour. Dozens of competitors took part, and they weren’t all ladies! Surprisingly SFW.
