This is just a tribute: Leaving on a jet plane...

Whoever thought that Tenacious D and John Denver would combine their immortal lyrical powers to head up the title of a post on a world famous blogspot? I am sure they once considered it in their wildest dreams or in a Rolling Stone interview but it doesn't matter cause it has happened...

------The duchess en route to Colesberg, kinda like a jetplane. Only quicker...


The reason of this post is dualistic in nature. It breaks the hearts of many, and send butterflies through the heart of many many more. Do you remember that joyous feeling of disbelief that flooded you when you learnt that Corne Krige was retiring from rugby and leaving Cape Town? Well, this is the same except totally the opposite.

A hero, a legend...nay a rockstar, is leaving Cape Town today. Besides returning for an exam and 75 hours of passion next weekend, he is leaving indefinitely, and a big Docstar shaped hole will be left in the life of Cape Town.

The flipside is that this moment brings life and hope to millions of girls in Durban, Colorodo and London, in that order, before departing and filling the hearts of the girls strewn across the beaches and bars of Spains... I know this makes him sound like a spirit and you're right he probably is one, but don't fear he will never shirk his duties for this site.
