Don’t tell James Cameron, although I hear he’s doing okay for himself. (Over $2 billion profit on his blue movie so far.)

This stop-motion short film was made by Carrotkid. He’s Canadian.

My trainer (who happens to be a qualified dolphin sociologist) offers me alternative (but good) training methods to become a super-sprinter.

I’m hoping that this training pain and effort is worth it in the end. But I’m sure the taste of victory will leave me feeling satisfied. (In the same way a well-made lemon meringue pie makes me feel.)

It's rude to point.

Ex-Vodacom CEO, Alan Knott-Craig has been cleared of claims that he exploited company resources to share a few shekels with his family. And rightly so. Kids always need pocket money-slash-venture capital. How can fatherly love be illegal?

But more importantly, one Vodacom employee was given money “to be trained in the US to become a magician. Although the cost of the training was not disclosed, the network operator spent $71 141 for “magician’s props”, which the magician apparently still uses to perform at Knott-Craig family events.”

Why should this magician be singled out for help? What about other passionate illusionists with dreams in their hearts and a disappearing coin behind their ears?

What about the clowns, fire-eaters, comedians and balloon sculptors? “What about the guy who can play a flute with his nose, Alan?” you might ask. But at least Al’s helping.

Santa gets no help from The Man.

I don’t see other industrialists bankrolling old Santas, to tide them over until Yuletide. Unless those Santas are pulling in big paydays from glamour malls like Sandton City, they can’t possibly survive on one job per annum.

This mysterious cellphone magician made corporate money disappear, so is obviously talented. Which brings me to my convoluted point: The Non-Discrimination Circus. It’s a home for fringe performers who never cracked the bright lights of the Cirque Du Soleil or Vodacom.

Please pass this on to Carte Blanche so that they hear about our work in the community.

Tiger Woods is officially the number-one-ranked philanderer in the world. Bill Clinton handed him the key to the City Lodge, after which they enjoyed a happy ending together.

South Africa seems to be one of Tiger’s favourite countries, as he got engaged here, and has now allegedly returned to receive treatment for sex addiction at Montrose Place in Cape Town. Montrose offers ‘luxury treatment and rehabilitation’, which I presume means they have mini-bars in the rooms.

I tried to lure Tiger with dancing strippers outside his window. He seemed to be salivating and fighting his manager to come downstairs, although I can’t confirm that it was really him.

Phat Joe and Paul Snodgrass at Heart 104.9 FM managed to get more compelling evidence when they called up the facility.

Listen below as they trap the manager with mind games.

Finally, can anyone confirm if EA Sports is bringing out a Leisure Suit Larry versus Tiger Woods game? Please let me know.
