Where Did We Go Wrong?
28 Sep 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 7 Comments
“The wines of Constantia became famous in Europe at the same time (mid 1700 s) as the red wines of Chateau Lafite. Makes you think.” Su Birch, the head of Wines of South Africa, tweeted this week. Lafite is a famous French first growth – the 2009’s are selling for around 14 000 bucks a bottle. Yes Su, it does make me think. It makes me think, “Where the fuck did we go wrong?”

Lowering The Speed Limit: How To Waste Time, And Not Save Lives
27 Sep 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 1 Comment
Look, it’s absolutely insane that up to 14 000 people are killed on our roads per annum. Those figures are from 2009, and are apparently the last reliable statistics available. That, according to Bob Geldof logic, would mean that about 38 people are killed on the roads every day. I can’t stress enough how appalling that is. But saying that the road deaths are due to a speed limit that is too high is a bit of a silly statement for a transport minister to make. But that is what S’bu Ndebele wants to do.

Eyewitness News Newsreader Goes Rogue, Drops Multiple F-Bombs During His Bulletin [AUDIO]
27 Sep 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 21 Comments
Eyewitness News radio bulletins will never be the same again after one newsreader lost it last night and f-bombed all kinds of philosophies to anyone that was listening to the 01h00 news. Anarchist and environmentalist, Mark Esterhuysen, probably won’t be reading the news anymore. NSFW, obviously.

A Note To All The Companies Using Private Numbers
26 Sep 2011 by Seth Rotherham / 7 Comments
I don’t answer private numbers. Nor do a lot of people I know. But a lot of them haven’t reached my elite level. The “elite communicator” level is where you find yourself when you have absolutely zero curiosity as to who might be calling. You’re over it. You’re so far gone, that you only answer […]

Some People Work On Fridays, Others Embrace Reality, And Enjoy Themselves
23 Sep 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
What were you doing today my friends? Working? I should hope not. Because, as you’ll know by now, a Friday done Jack’s way involves little to no work at all. And that’s what these lucky rascals in the video below were doing two weeks ago, as winners of our Monthly Friday Done Jack’s Way Competition, […]

Wine As Art? Damn Straight
21 Sep 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 1 Comment
Recently I was knocking back Meerlust’s new releases at a lunch. Drinking these rather scrumptious wines, we began to discuss some incredibly important issues. The things one discusses at a wine lunch – among other winos – are, of course of world importance. They solve world hunger, the middle-east issues, America’s debt, Malema, Greece, and hint toward what 42 actually means. To be honest, if it wasn’t for conversations such as these, the world would be in a worse place than it is. So on this blustery day in Stellenbosch, the question that arose was, “Can wine be art?” As I said, vital stuff.

The Greatest One-Hit Wonders Of All Time
20 Sep 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 3 Comments
This column is really a tribute to Durban’s Number One, East Coast Radio. Thanks to those DJs and their music selection committee, I got the joke when Jay-Z and Mr. Hudson sang Forever Young. I was belting out the tunes like all the white 30-somethings when the Wedding DJs played at Oppikoppi this year. I threw out the question of the greatest one-hit wonders of all time on Twitter yesterday afternoon, and the responses were varied and colourful. This is not a compilation of the five most chosen songs. This is not a democracy. This is my list.

Cape Town Gets Two New Neighbourhood Names
20 Sep 2011 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
No longer will we have to utter the words, “you know the area where Beluga / Weylandts / Waterfront Studios and Waltons are?” Because from now on we can simply say “The Foundry.” That is the name that has been given to this neat little neighbourhood which falls within the greater Green Point suburb. “The […]

Gingers Turned Away From Sperm Banks
19 Sep 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 2 Comments
Would-be ginger sperm donators are being turned away from genetically-picky sperm banks in droves. It’s practically an orange tide of rejection. Citing “minimal” demand for the love seed of ginger-crowned males, the world’s largest sperm bank, Cryos, has been turning fanta-pantsed donor applicants away at the front door.

SABC Shells Out Big Bucks For Employees’ DSTV, M-Net Subs
16 Sep 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
A probe into the SABC has revealed that the national broadcaster has been paying for its employees’ M-Net and DStv subscriptions. You can’t really blame the SABC’s employees for preferring non-SABC programming. But it does seem a little silly for the national broadcaster to be forking out for its own staff’s subscription television “privileges”. Especially when online TV is cheaper.

Practical Tips For Enjoying Your Life, With Wine
14 Sep 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 2 Comments
I have been a bit airy-faery of late, mouthing off about elegance, the nature of language, bonhomie, and the like. Which, I must say, I prefer talking about at dinner where there is plenty room to bang my fists on the table. And as the banging of digital fists becomes slightly tiresome, I thought I would veer off in a more practical direction. So here are a few tips to making your wine drinking life more pleasurable.

An Ode To Emos
13 Sep 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 3 Comments
Hipsters get way too much credit these days. I don’t mean that in a good way. Hipsters – especially those of a South African persuasion – deserve all the deep-seated hatred that comes their way. What I mean is that they are credited with far more social traction than they actually possess. They just aren’t that big of a deal. I’m far more forgiving of emos than I am of hipsters.

JuJu’s Favourite Tune Deemed Hate Speech
12 Sep 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
In a recent ruling by Judge Colin Lamont, “Dubula Ibhunu”, also known as “shoot the boer”, has been deemed hate speech. Lamont, who is presiding over Julius Malema’s hate speech trial, also made it clear that the Equality Act was put in place to protect all groups in a country, and in this case, more specifically, minorities. Sorry JuJu. Not.
