PURELY BY ACCIDENT, South Africa has come up with a device tailor-made for torture: the vuvuzela horn.

This thing is ruining the 2010 Football World Cup, played on the African continent for the first time in 80 years.

It’s a noisy, un-musical instrument that can reach as high as 125 decibels.

Watch this foolishness spreading to the diaspora, where most of us either like noise or tolerate it. Now let’s see who will be the first yahoo to bring it to Barbados.

Did someone say in time for Crop-Over?
