The Liberation Of Lyle Wilkens
29 Jun 2011 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
Lyle Wilkens (@lylewilkens) saw the article about us giving away free 2oceansvibe Radio car kits – enabling him to listen to South Africa’s most exiting new internet radio station, 2oceansvibe Radio, in his car. Lyle was clearly tired of having no choice and realised that the one or two stations available on FM, were not made […]

A Truly Awful First Car
28 Jun 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 12 Comments
Every person’s first car must be utterly terrible and must visit all manner of misfortunes and financially painful incidents. This is the way of things. How life should be. I wouldn’t go as far as saying that “thus sayeth the Lord”, because they finished that particular book some 1500 years before Gottlieb Daimler’s horseless carriages. I’m happy then to say that my first car is utterly woeful. [Follow link to read the full column]

27 Jun 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 8 Comments
Graeme Smith began his exclusive interview with 2oceansVibe Radio on Friday afternoon with this question. Over the course of the next 50 minutes, Smith spoke candidly about his total loss of confidence and self-esteem that led to his decision to stay away from South Africa following the Protea’s disappointing quarter-final exit from the 2011 Cricket […]

You Simply Cannot Pass On R1.3Billion (Cannot Believe It’s Another Rollover!)
27 Jun 2011 by Seth Rotherham / 1 Comment
We often joke about only entering the Euromillions lottery, when the jackpot hits One Billion Rand – as if the ‘little’ R500 million draws aren’t worth the effort! So for all of you out there who only enter “the big ones” – this is one of the biggest Euromillions jackpots OF ALL TIME. They don’t […]

Today’s Jack Friday Winner Is…
24 Jun 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
This week’s Jack Friday competition was, despite the cold weather, a fiery contest. The quality of the tweeted entries is taking a sharply upward curve, so much so that this baby claimed the runner’s up place, courtesy of @PharSideUK.

How Does R1.1 Billion Sound? (Yes, It’s A Rollover!)
24 Jun 2011 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
Colin Moss was distraught on Wednesday when I saw him. He told me that he had missed the cutoff time for Tuesday night’s MASSIVE EuroMillions lottery draw, and only got tickets for the next draw, on Friday (today). “Don’t fret,” I told him, “it was a rollover!” “So my ticket will be for the rollover?” […]

Sipho Hlongwane Debates The SA Comedy Scene With Rob Van Vuuren [Podcast]
24 Jun 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Earlier this week, 2oceansVibe columnist, Sipho Hlongwane, had the local comedy circuit up in arms over a column titled “Where Are All The Good Comedians?”, which was strongly critical of the state of comedy in South Africa. The column triggered a vehement response from fans of local comedy, and many comedians themselves. Loyiso Gola, the […]

Tiny Homes, Bigger Cars: Why This Curse Of Progress Needs To End
21 Jun 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 3 Comments
I am concerned. There’s an alarming trend that I’ve noticed, and it’s all getting a bit out of control. Every new generation of vehicles emerges fatter than the last. I drove a new Opel Astra last month which barely scraped into my garage. An Astra. It’s hardly a monster truck. Yet every new property development I’ve encountered is essentially a maze of shoeboxes. Are we forgetting the ultimate luxury?

Where Are All The Good Comedians?
21 Jun 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 56 Comments
Who told Loyiso Gola that he is funny? I need answers. How did he come to have a comedy TV show, and why is the country putting up with this gigantic farce? People even follow him on Twitter. Why?! What is so appealing about having an alarmingly round face shout inanities at you in caps lock? I’m serious – I need to know. Am I the loony one here? [click link to read column]

17 Jun 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
When we said that we were going to revolutionize the South African work place by lobbying for shorter (read: “nonexistent”) Friday working hours, we weren’t kidding around. Proof?

End Of The Month Salticrax Be Gone! Amazing Groupon Deal
17 Jun 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Today is the 17th of the month. Instinctively, you know that that means. The Petrol gauge is flirting with the wrong side of the half-mark. The improvised wine-collection is running dry. The packet of cigarettes is looking dangerously roomy, and the Salticrax are beginning to look more austere than opulent. And as the cash-coffers dry […]

How To Be A Petrol-Head And Still Get Laid
14 Jun 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 2 Comments
Look, I’m no expert here, on either subject, but it’s my job to talk about cars. It’s safe to say I may have bored a few people over the years, so I’ve put together a handy guide to avoiding that. As a car enthusiast, or petrol-head if you must, you will have to talk about the object of your desires with the women you desire. Don’t cock it up.

Diary Of An Exhausted Arsenal Fan
13 Jun 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 2 Comments
It’s been a weird sort of season. How do you reconcile the fact that Arsenal beat Chelsea, Manchester United and Barcelona in the last six months of the season with the fact that in the exact same period they lost to third-rate Bolton Wanderers, Stoke City and Birmingham City? How do we come to terms with both the heady highs and the unrelenting lows, like the crushing defeat to Birmingham in the Carling Cup Final and the astonishing 4-4 draw to Newcastle United which effectively ended our title hopes? What does one say of the beautiful football, the young talent and complete lack of any sort of silverware in the last six seasons?

Sounds pretty remarkable, doesn’t it? You see, it all started when I was cruising around Schipol Airport and noticed that they were selling the iPad 2 for MORE than what you can buy one from at Digicape. Digicape are selling the iPad 2 with 32Gb and 3G for R6,599 – no spice. Can you believe […]

Lock And Load – Morrey’s Corner
10 Jun 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 3 Comments
Looking at the lock forwards that Peter de Villiers should take to the World Cup is a quick and easy discussion. Victor Matfield and Andries Bekker cover the number five jersey / four-jumper position as arguably the two best lineout options in world rugby, while Bakkies Botha and Dannie Rossouw should be named as your two-jumpers in the four jersey. But what about Juan?
