Since the late 1400s, The Merchants have been sailing to the Cape of Storms to find fame and fortune. By 1652, the Peninsula was renamed “The Cape of Good Hope”. But the reality remained – more than half of the ships wrecked in the pursuit of finding land. However, once through the storms, the reward was well worth the journey: the climate was perfect for cultivating vines and making the very best wine. Today, the journey in and out is less perilous, but we still celebrate The Merchants, the men and women who risked their lives to bring us wines from the far corners of the world. A story of travel, from vine to table.
They're like your brain's way of saying: you know what the world really needs? Nonsensical story lines that nobody questions and flying cars.
And even though we know they're absolutely bonkers and possess zero relevance whatsoever, we waste no time telling people all about them.
Sad fact: nobody wants to hear it. There is only one dream worth talking about, and that's Martin Luther King Jr's.
Anyhoo, last night we had a dream where we featured half off tickets to see the Red Hot Chili Peppers live at the Department of Home Affairs. They weren't even performing. They just worked there. Crazy, huh?
