Some News for Wed Jan 13, 2010

AFRICA CUP OF NATIONS VIEWING IN THE TWIN CITIES

Important Update:

I have had problems getting the Africa Cup of Nations games on the TV at my beloved Sweetwater in St Paul. On Tuesday during the Egypt v Nigeria match the channel went out, and it has still not come back on. Who knows where the real trouble lies. I have also been having troubles watching at my other fave place The Holy Land Deli. So if the Sweetwater troubles continue I will be switching to yet another location for Friday's bit Ghana v Ivory Coast game:

Marina Grill
612-788-0461
2424 University Ave NE
Minneapolis
Corner of Lowry & University

I have verified that they will be showing the game without complications!

Stay tuned.
