Greetings from an internet cafe in the South African library in Cape Town.

"COMPUTER DUSTERS"
You go to a South African ostrich farm, and all they have to do is to get
a few feathers together and call it a "Computer Duster," and people buy it
like crazy...
If it doesn't work out, I can always make a feather boa for a striptease
act.

MOTHER CITY, GOLDEN CITY, FRIENDLY CITY
South Africa also nicknames its cities.
JOHANNESBURG--Golden City
CAPE TOWN--Mother City
PORT ELIZABETH--Friendly City (also, Windy City)

O.K. BAZAAR
There's an "O.K. Bazaar" here in Cape Town that dates from the 1800s.
Back to work....
