TYSAK… Africa has oil.

You should know this. So when you hear news about the dark continent over the next couple of years, (all indicators point that you will) please… keep that in mind.

What is OPEC? Glad you asked. TYSAK #2: The Oil cartel.

It makes for a good discussion at the water cooler, as your friend (imagine the guy from Office Space, the one with the Navy Seal poster) starts a conversation about the terrible things going on in Africa.

CNN probably won’t remind you of these little tidbits… – Helston
