You be the judge - Soccer's rocky chairs - Driving lesson
THE Machine Gun Man's long-running battle with the judiciary is well-documented and indications are that the spat is not likely to come to an end anytime soon.
Commentators say this is one issue that the 100% Zuluboy has been steadfastly consistent about since his first brush with the law - in the new Mzansi at least - when he was falsely accused of raping the HIV-positive daughter of an old struggle friend.
When he gets the chance, he really comes down hard on the poor judges, just as he did last week when he called for the powers of the Constitutional Court to be clipped.
"We don't want to review the Constitutional Court," he said with a straight face.
"We want to review its powers.
"There are dissenting judgments which we read.
"You will find that the dissenting one has more logic than the one that enjoyed the majority."
Was Judge Zuma perhaps referring to one Judge Mogoeng Mogoeng, who has a history of going against majority judgments, when he spoke about "the dissenting one"?
You be the judge.
Driving lesson
GULUVA was cruising along a Jozi freeway in his rickety jalopy one lazy afternoon when a 1400 bakkie cut in front of him almost out of the blue.
It took a good couple of seconds for him to fully recover from the shock and the realisation that he almost met his Maker long before his time.
That is when he noticed that the offending vehicle belonged to a Jozi driving school because, on its back, it carried the words: "CAUTION: Driver in training. It [the car of course] can stop anywhere, anytime."
Now Guluva knows where Jozi taxi drivers get their driving skills.
Soccer's rocky chairs
GULUVA has always warned corporate high flyers who earn big bucks in top companies, but who want to branch out to the glamorous world of soccer, not to enter into long-term hire purchase agreements with furniture shops or other retailers when they secure these plush jobs.
The reason for Guluva's brotherly advice to these compatriots when they join either the Premier Soccer League (PSL) or the South Africa Football Association (Safa) is that one does not want to see them saddled with huge debts when they leave the organisation - which could happen anytime within the first three to six months of their taking the positions.
Just ask Joe Ndhlela, Albert Mokoena and, most recently, Zola Majavu. Of course, this does not apply when you are a foreigner and your name happens to be Trevor Phillips or Kjetil Siem.
As usual, Guluva advised Stanley Matthews to resist the temptation of splashing out on expensive furniture on 24-month credit agreements when he took over as PSL chief executive after the incumbent, Majavu, vacated the hot seat in a huff in October last year.
Guluva hopes the wily football administrator has heeded his advice because there are already murmurs in the corridors of the Parktown-based outfit that knives are out for him - hardly two months after he took up the position.
Otherwise the Red Ants will soon be on him.
