The Blind Pig

The Blind Pig is the graduate student pub at Witwatersrand; it's an excellent watering hole that is great for meeting international folks from all over the world at. Click here for the Blind Pig web page. On the web page, the Pig boasts to have members "spanning the entire age spectrum (pretty much) and all major genders."
It reminds me of Brown's Grad Center Bar, except that the Pig is above ground. After spending the day working in my apartment, I met Solomon at the Blind Pig and we watched a tennis match and then the Brazil-England soccer match (ended in a 1-1 tie).
About that strike- well, according to the papers it was as huge as expected and they're calling it the "biggest strike since apartheid". The only report of force seems to be some stun grenades for people blocking access to a hospital in Cape Town. Article here.
On Sunday I'm off to the flea market!
