Taxi to Brazil? You gotta be kidding

I HEAR that some Mzansi peeps have just woken up to the fact that the World Cup is under way and are scrambling to get to Brazil.

Some rank marshals in and around the country have told Sbotho that commuters have been asking where they could find taxis to Brazil.

One particular marshal told me at a shebeen in Diepsloot that when he first heard this request, he thought there was a new squatter camp that had sprouted nearby called Brazil.

At another shebeen in Soweto, Sbotho was asked by one motherless drunk: "Is 2010 in Brazil now?"

Well, I guess Phillip is no longer here.
