If Africa Was Unoccupied…
23 May 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 4 Comments
In my Grade Eight IsiZulu class, our set book was a novel set in the early 1800s. It was a fictionalised account of what the Iron Age existence of a tribe living in KwaZulu Natal would have been like – before the white man arrived in his ships; even before Shaka Zulu’s fearsome warriors began their raiding expeditions. It was a well-written book and within its pages I was transported back to those simple years when the greatest challenge of the day was finding a cave where iron ore could be mined from. But the book was horribly flawed in one respect. Click link for more..

Big Heads, Little Heads, And The Merits Of Wanking
20 May 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Both Dominique Strauss-Kahn and Arnold Schwarzenegger are the latest in a long line of high profile men who have allowed the smaller of their two heads to gain the upper hand when making crucial decisions. Their fall is especially tragic when one considers the elegance of a simple solution. [Click link for more]

“I Was A Boy, I Didn’t Know Any Better” – The Definitive Luke Watson Interview
20 May 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Former Stormers captain and controversial Springbok flank, Luke Watson, was interviewed by Rob van Vuuren and Martin Evans of 2oceansvibe Radio‘s Drive Time Robbery show earlier this week. In the candid interview, Watson ‘fesses up to the fault of his controversial remarks regarding the Springbok jersey, and the Afrikaans-dominated administration of South African rugby. Watson […]

Not Good Enough – It’s As Simple As Asking The Correct Question
16 May 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 11 Comments
Surely if you were paid to act as the TV match official to assist a referee controlling a rugby game, you would pride yourself on your capacity to communicate. You don’t have to run anywhere; you don’t have to blow anything and you don’t even have to get out of your pyjamas for the Lord’s sake. All you need do is watch the game and share an opinion if asked. Easier money than a Bangkok rub ‘n tug parlour operator. Click for more.

When A Bad Album Review Really Doesn’t Matter
16 May 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
It must have been on 29 April or thereabouts and I had decided to see what was happening in town with a friend of mine. Thinking that it was dubstep night, I suggested to my friend that we should go to Kitchener’s Carvery Bar in Braamfontein. We arrived there at around 23h00, only to discover that no, it wasn’t dubstep night, but rather live band night. Not to worry, I thought, it would take a really bad band to ruin Kitchener’s on any night.

Pondering The Stormers
13 May 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 4 Comments
What made the Stormers loss to the Crusaders at Newlands on Saturday most disappointing was the fact that the Cape Town boys played most of the rugby. And in the second half we had two golden opportunities to win the game but were let down by the little things. Click link for more.

Strength Of Will And The World’s Strongest Man
09 May 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Has the human species made any noticeable progress since that first unknown person picked up a sharp instrument and made a mark on a rock? Are we any better than our barbaric ancestors? Are the iPad, satellite television and fuel-injected engines signs that we can rightfully look back with conceit at the gloomy depths from whence we came? By what measure should we gauge our history and achievements? What should our flagpole be?

The New Super Rugby Format – Do You See The Value?
05 May 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 1 Comment
I’ve been asked twenty times in the past month to explain the format of the Super Rugby knock out phases. It requires a PhD to fully understand. I first encountered it in Australian club rugby when I coached at Eastern Suburbs some eight years ago. This is the format they play under. It’s more egalitarian, and a fair go for more teams, mate. Typical Aussies. And let me tell you, we’ve been spared the full version (à la rugby league) where eight teams reach the “finals”, as they call it. And some teams get to lose a knock out fixture and continue on – go figure. Click for more..

Grow Up, Children
04 May 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
May 18 is coming up, which is a relief given that by that date South Africans will have endured 11 days of unbroken work without a public holiday. When is the ANC going to realize that if they want to keep the 25% unemployed happy, we need more holidays, not fewer. How are these people that have been failed so spectacularly by the government supposed to feel part of society when the rest of us are out working?

Curio-Shop Afro-Motif Music: Who Will Rid Us Of This Sad Sight?
02 May 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 6 Comments
To get to my mother’s desk I had to walk through a curio shop. It was one of those dreadfully cheesy African curio shops, with the carved wooden and stone animals, the beads and the bowls, like you find at any South African airport, the Moyo restaurants and the Durban beachfront. I have that exact same feeling (as if I’m back in that curio shop) when I come across certain music videos made by South African bands. What is with this new trend with our bands who think that by merely smearing white face paint across their videos it will make them mysterious and exotic?

Kulula In-Flight Magazine Feature
30 Apr 2011 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
I’ll be honest, my friends and I have been practicing the climbing-out-of-the-pool-with-water-pouring-down-our-faces men’s fragrance commercial ripoff for quite some time. Now whilst GQ allowed a bit of indulgence, it was only when Kulula came to the party – allowing such ridiculousness – that the years of training finally paid off! Morne Van Zyl took the […]

Utter Bull
28 Apr 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 1 Comment
While I hate to be negative about sportsmen who are much more talented than I ever was, and try their hardest to perform well, I have to make an exception this week. The Bull’s second half performance on Saturday against a very average Western Force outfit was planlose* to say the least. Worst of all, […]

God Save The King
28 Apr 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 1 Comment
Prince William seems like a decent bloke. Genetically though, he’s been dealt a difficult hand by life, in all her ruthless vagary. His father, Prince Charles – on the occasion of his painful press conference to mark his engagement to the fragrant, dim-witted, but virginal Lady Diana Spencer – so infamously replied to the question […]

Malema Vs AfriForum/TAU: Counting The Cost
25 Apr 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 10 Comments
It was at 02h33 just this morning when Dead American Writers cut through my sleep. I reached out to grab my ringing cellphone, my senses still dulled and drugged by the heavy slumber I had been so rudely pulled out of. Who the hell would call me at that hour? Was it my colleagues, about to breathlessly announce that we need a story chop-chop? Were the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse upon us? Had Nelson Mandela finally passed on?

Probably The Most Important Thing You Will Read This Month
22 Apr 2011 by Seth Rotherham / 1 Comment
2oceansvibe had to turn down business from two different brands this last week. A lot of the haters out there don’t realise that. They don’t think it happens. It does. Constantly. That is why the lovers keep coming back here – because any exposure for any brand is genuine and they don’t mind the advertising. […]

Stop The Pigeon
20 Apr 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 2 Comments
For reasons that need not detain us, one day last week I found myself in the early hours of the morning watching the Hanna-Barbera cartoon “Stop the Pigeon”. If you ever feel that your mind is slightly out of synch with the rest of the world’s, and that perhaps you should visit a good nerve […]

Forget Pretoria, The Worst Place To Race A Car In This Country
18 Apr 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Terrible things happen in Pretoria. Three people were killed when their drag race went horribly wrong on Voortrekker Road on 3 April. But that doesn’t mean that it’s anywhere near the best place to die in a car crash in this country.

For Pete’s Sake – Your’s And Mine
14 Apr 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 13 Comments
I’ve been talking to rugby people for the past seven weeks and the amount of anti-Peter De Villiers talk is very concerning. What do you want from the man? In the build up to the world cup I think we should put a ban on all “Snor” bashing.

I Watched SABC TV, So You Don’t Have To – by Sipho Hlongwane
11 Apr 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 5 Comments
In the olden days, when certain people wanted to appear superior to everyone else in the room, they’d loudly proclaim, “Oh, but I don’t watch TV.” Usually in the middle of a riveting conversation on the exact hue of Tamara Dey’s lipstick, or something as earth-shatteringly important as that. “TV is filled with such junk, […]
