Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Rosebud, the marijuana lifestyle magazine. The guy in the photo is James Daly, the editor of this new print publication. What’s wrong with this picture?

Twilight… twilight… TWILIGHT! The word still sends shivers up and down my spine as I think of the young tweens gnashing their teeth like wolverines and vampires at the chance of sinking their teeth into Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner or if they’re not too hungry Kristen Stewart. It’s a good thing they didn’t release Twilight: […]

News items like this only come around once every few years. They remind you of why Ian Fleming was such a genius, as he churned out the iconic James Bond novels – most of which featured extremely hot woman spies. With Kim Jong il as today’s real-life Bond villain, and this smoking hot Russian spy […]
Cape Town Woman Blows Too Hard – Any sexual innuendos in that headline were purely coincidental, as we learn about Yvonne, the Cape Town woman who got too keen with her Vuvuzela and ended up rupturing her throat. “Ripping her windpipe” is how they also described it. Check her pic out after the jump. I […]

For just a thousand US dollars, you can have hard toast whenever, and wherever you want. And there’s an added benefit, Seth. Talking to the manager is effective, […]
It is a pity that successful breakfasts are so hard to come by in Cape Town. the two most important things, crispy bacon and hard toast, are still, clearly, too much to ask. The Muse and I made the fatal error of getting breakfast at the Waterfront on Saturday morning. Why were we not at […]
Angelina Jolie To Play Cleopatra – Claudette Colbert was divine as Cleopatra in 1934, but nothing can top Liz Taylor wearing ’60s style togas and makeup, croaking “Caesar, what’s boinin’?” Well, now, it’s been announced that Angelina Jolie will be the next Cleo, possibly with Brad as Marc Anthony. I have no doubt he’ll absolutely […]
A new study suggests that people prefer to travel South. Real-world experiences underlie avoidance of northern routes, Brunyé proposes. Young children learn that as objects and locations get higher, they become harder to attain. Examples include reaching for a toy on the counter, climbing the stairs and jumping. An ingrained notion that “up is difficult” […]

There are a lot of iPhone apps out there and, as much as I would like to focus on all of them, my attention has been fully diverted to the new kid on the my block, the iPad. By the way, did I tell you that I subscribed to 12 issues of Wallpaper magazine for […]

The best thing about the Eyjafjallajokull eruption, besides its name, was the brace of rocking pictures that it produced. At the forefront of the photographic excellence was the Boston Globe. Luckily, the guys at the Boston Globe, in addition to being unbelievable photographers, also have a great sense of humour. So ask yourself, what’s the […]

Remember the time when you were talking to that perfectly normal friend-of-a-friend at a braai? He was into futures trading or whatever, and didn’t have any abnormal ticks of any kind. A totally enjoyable human being. And then, WHAM, he tells you he’s crazy about Lego. Thirty years old, and still clinging to Lego. You […]
