The goal here is pretty cool! Sort of. Extend your perception of time by doing new or uncomfortable things – and have more, better memories of a given day than you would if you were doing dull stuff. We like it – we’re all about extending the vibe. Even if uncomfortable things are required of you from time to time.
As part of Machine Project’s “Good People Doing Bad Things”, apparently teaching kids to break into and hot-wire cars is good for their development. The aim of the project is not so much to turn kids into deviants, but to get them understanding how cars work…
Helen Zille did it that way so it works. It’s not going to happen for current mayor Dan Plato but unlike Helen, Dan never got the Best Mayor In The Whole Wide World Award. I’m not saying he did a bad job, I’m just saying he didn’t get the award. And now his term is up. So who’s next? Some people say it’s Patricia De Lille.
A bunch of Japanese scientists (how surprising) believe they have the technology to clone a woolly mammoth. Yes, you heard that right, they want to bring an extinct animal back to life, and are hoping to achieve this within the next six years. End of days here we come.

While the rest of his classmates were off investing their time in real pursuits, like playing the latest video games and surfing the internet for free porn, Robert Nay was developing the single most popular free app for the Apple iPhone.
After three princes named Brooklyn, Cruz and Romeo, the Beckham’s are finally expecting a princess. I shudder to think what the poor girl’s name will be. Any ideas? This exciting news takes me way back to when Britney Spears and Kevin Federline were expecting their first born.
If you’re as grossly obese as this man taking a brisk walk every couple of days just won’t do when attempting to lose weight. There are a number of reasons for this, foremost amongst which are that you weigh so much that you cannot walk and if you do manage to get up your legs will sheer at the ankles.
So! Pretend we’re having that bit of dialogue from Pulp Fiction where we talk about Burger King burgers being called ‘royale’ in France, except we’re talking about North Korea, and they call them “minced meat and bread,” to avoid referring to the uniquely American hamburger. Also, this is a new thing.
We have got 2 two A4-size photographs (not the above pic), taken by top SA surf photographer, Anthony Fox – and signed by World #2 Surf Champion, SA’s very own Jordy Smith. To win one of these signed prints, tell us what vinyl track Jordy asked to be played during our interview and why you […]
Eskom said South Africa saved 1800 megawatts over the last six years. Apparently that’s enough energy to power Durban. The energy powerhouse hastened to add that this saving was due to energy efficient lighting. And not just any lights – the lights rolled out by them from 2004 to 2010.
We just had MC Hammer and Jordy Smith in the studio and I’ve got hot seats for the U2 concert in February. But let me tell you now, the fact that Jim Jefferies is coming to town, may well top all of those. That’s right folks. And if you aren’t aware of the most foul-mouthed, […]

By now you would have noticed, looking at the magazine covers to the left of the page, that the February issue of GQ (UK Edition), features none other than the Victoria’s Secret supermodels. More to the point, it includes our very own Candice Swanepoel! We did the right thing and got you the pics from […]
When deceased property developer and sky-diving enthusiast, Rob Taylor generously donated his Audi R8 to two car guards at the foot of table mountain in January 2010, he probably didn’t bet on those same car guards would have fraud charges brought against them by Taylor’s business partner, and de facto owner of the car.
Well, I guess Ryan Rusnak wins at weekends. Nice try, everybody. This dude set up his fridge to fire a variety of beers at him from across the room whenever he keys in the command on his iPhone. I mean sure, he’s choosing to have Bud Light thrown at him, but cultural differences. Focus on the potential here.
Man about town and real man’s man, Italian Premier Silvio Berlusconi is in trouble again. But luckily this time it’s only because he (allegedly) slept with a 17-year-old.
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.
French Cult Killer-Couple On The Run In Northern Cape – A French couple who shot and killed a police officer are on the run in Sutherland, Northern Cape. Philippe, 60, and Agnis Neniere, 58, allegedly opened fire on police officers on Friday, killing Boleme and injuring another officer. They are said to be members of […]
We kicked of this last weekend with a 5 hour chillout session on a buddy’s boat, at the start of the 2011 Cape to Rio yacht race. It was quite an experience, with more yachts than sense – out on the water outside Cape Town’s harbour and Waterfront. How we didn’t crash into anyone, God […]
By now you will be well aware of the letter Constitutional Court Justice Edwin Cameron sent to Ross Garland, the producer of Spud the Movie, based on John van de Ruit’s highly successful novel, Spud. Well, would you believe it, Spud, the actual character from the book, has hit back, with some words of his […]
Alright, so that title may be pushing it, especially considering that the world #2 hasn’t claimed his first ASP World Tour title yet (clue: he will, this year), but with pro surf photographer Ant Fox, Seth and Bruce Good in attendance, it was a pretty darn fine interview.

For any of us who’ve been out to a supper club or dinner venue with a beautiful lady this safety certificate from the 1940’s will prove invaluable.
750 African Grey parrots perished on a 1Time airlines flight from Johannesburg’s OR Tambo airport to Durban’s King Shaka Airport on Christmas Eve. The parrots had been captured in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and were transported to South Africa for resale as pets in the second stage of a three-part transaction of a larger group of parrots.
Applying for jobs sucks. It’s awkward and painful and time-consuming. But some people know how to do it right – how to avoid getting caught in the rat-trap of sweaty-palmed interviews and communicate a certain level of coolness at the same time. Presented below is one such person’s job application. Please – read it, and learn to be a better person.
The phrase goes, “If you can’t handle the heat, get the hell out of the kitchen”. In economic terms, the past two years have been pretty chilly, which has in turn left more than a few businesses owners feeling a little hot under the collar. Controversial Cape Town restaurant, Jardine, is the latest to fall foul of the global recession, and the head chef has made for greener pastures.
Finally. Something to spend this R1.5 million I have lying around on. Lennon’s 1965 Ferrari 330 GT 2+2 Coupe (I don’t know what most of that means!) is being auctioned off in February; they expect it go for slightly more than his dark green Chrysler station wagon, which was recently auctioned off for $5,500 (ZAR 37.5k).

Today’s game involves a car that was spotted on the streets of Cape Town. This is a given, as it has a stunning WP numberplate. But the big question is, WHERE in Cape Town was it spotted? More to the point, what suburb? Follow the link to see the answer!
Now your chocolate hoovering habit is propping up the revenues of would-be dictators, more specifically, the regime of the Ivory Coast’s political limpet, Laurent Gbagbo. Feel bad. Feel very bad. And fat. Evil and fat.
