Barack Obama was there to say ‘yes they can’ use his 95-thousand ton aircraft carrier to play college ball.

North Carolina dropped bombs on Michigan State to win the game. No enemy fire was received during the game. (Mostly because it was docked in California.)

It also happens to be the carrier from which Osama bin Laden’s body got dumped into the ocean. No confirmation of anyone saying ‘bin Laden got dunked on!‘ during the game.

If you prefer keeping it indie, try Love Books in Melville, JHB.

Even if you don’t want to pick up a signed copy of my book (WTF?), there’s always Gareth Cliff’s book. As well as an adjoining coffee shop for you to relax in and blog about backpacking holidays or vintage sunglasses, or whatever you’re into.

Love Books is here.
