The town is appropriately known as “Eikestad”, or the Town of Oaks. Unfortunately a recent disease has affected the trees, and the towering oaks are slowly dying. Fortunately, since the oak trees are a symbol of Stellenbosch, the town council started planting new trees soon after the discovery of the disease.

In 1866, the Stellenbosch Gymnasium was founded. In 1880 it changed its name to Stellenbosch College, but was renamed in 1887 to Victoria College in honor of Queen Victoria. In 1918 the college officially became the University of Stellenbosch, known affectionately as “Maties”. The University has over the years become the heart of Stellenbosch and is regarded as one of the best in the world.

During the year, the estimated 17 000 students fill the town with a cheerful vibe and bustling activity in the hostels, lecture halls, restaurants, coffee shops, bars and discos.

Because the tourist information office was closed on Sunday we figured, we’d stop in at the Hampton Inn & Suites Hotel to pick up some tourist brochures and city maps. Another pleasant experience: The lady at the front counter was extremely helpful, provided us with several brochures and a printout of how to get to 2 of the most important architectural heritage sites in Buffalo: Frank Lloyd Wright’s Martin House and his other important Buffalo work, Graycliff Mansion.

Having parked the car on Delaware Avenue at about 10:30 am, the one thing that struck us immediately was how empty the streets were. There was virtually no pedestrian traffic at all and very few vehicles passing by.

Yes, people shopping with spurs on can be seen in these parts all the time. It’s not uncommon to see a world champion cowboy or musical celebrity around town, sharing in day-to-day community life. Around the town these days, it might be the singer Jewel or Rodeo Cowboys Ty Murray, Tom Reeves, Tuff Hedeman or Cody Ohl. Time was, when 20,000 spectators would crowd into Everett Colburn’s Rodeo Bowl from 1940 to 1959. Colburn’s Lightning C Ranch was the world’s largest ranch devoted entirely to Rodeo livestock. Lightning C was operated by Colburn but he was joined later by TV Cowboy star Gene Autry.

Snakes are economical and efficient, using just enough energy to get the job done. Even when resting their minds are constantly working. Snakes should not be underestimated, if they put their mind to it Snakes can achieve great things.
Don’t cross a Snake, they will hold a grudge for years and wait for the perfect moment to strike back.

Snakes don’t display much emotion and do well in business, often accumulating considerable wealth. They can be devious if this is to their benefit.

What more does an interviewer seeking a great candidate want?

Well, for starters, they may want to know:

** How many quarters – placed on top of each other – would it take to reach the top of the Empire State Building?

** How many piano tuners are there in the world?

** What does all the ice in a hockey rink weigh?

** How many gas stations are there in the US?

** Why are manhole covers round instead of square?

** If you had to get rid of one state, what would it be?

** How do they make M&Ms?

Before you sit there scratching your head and wondering if you’ve entered the interviewing Twilight Zone, realize that it’s becoming more and more common for interviewers to ask these kinds of brainteaser questions.

Why in the world are they using brainteasers in interviews? Because they’re looking to get a feel for how you process information – how well you work through a problem.

The first thing you should do with a brainteaser question is NOT focus on coming up with the right answer.
