I love everything you write about and...your writing - the irony, the polite irreverence, your sense of humor. Really enjoy these classy little pieces full of wisdom, can't seem to find anything truly authentic outside books (for which I don't have time anymore) and can't do more politics, i just cannot :). Thank you for sharing your enormous talent and bringing a smile to my face every time!

And about tradition...oh my, I live in rural Pennsylvania (I know...) but come from Barcelona, where catalan nationalism (mis) leads you to believe that basically we created the world. Traditions make me yawn.

Thank you, Esther! That really means a lot. (I, too, am burnt out with politics...)

I had a whole tuxedo section planned by I was already going on too long! Also avoided mentioning anything Australian because that would have opened Pandora's Box.
