I am a constituent of yours who currently lives in Germany. Before moving out of the US, I lived and voted in Bloomington, Indiana. Therefore, although I now reside in Weimar, Germany, as a US citizen, I still vote in Indiana
Senator Lugar, you are, without a doubt, the finest US Senator I’ve ever had […]

Yesterday marked the beginning of the end of my airline, Northwest Airlines.
The moment came when the Department of Justice announced they had no objections to the merger of Northwest Airlines and Delta Air Lines. Within a few short hours, the merger formally happened and by the time I […]
After seeing the ad below, I’m not sure I can ever vote for a Republican again. I can’t believe how badly the brand is damaged from George W. Bush, Palin, and now this? Unbelievable.
So this morning I was eating my favorite breakfast: Kolln Müsli Schoko when I bit into something hard.
Fishing it out of my mouth, I looked at it and thought, that’s odd: that doesn’t look like a rock. My tongue went into immediate search mode and a split second later I realized, I had broken […]
I’m a little bit exhausted—this election cycle has lasted way too long.
Now I am starting to allow myself to feel hopeful—it’s really possible that the election will go the way it needs to go.
Time goes by, so slowly.

It opened a mere 3 minutes after I passed it this morning on my way to work—so I didn’t have time to look through its offerings, but this evening on my way home, I took a look.
Honestly, it […]

It also fancies itself as the European Capital of Culture—which is was nearly a decade ago in 1999. The trappings of refinement are everywhere you go in Weimar—Goethe and Schiller are fêted as heroes, art museums are celebrated, and […]
New Goethe & Schiller Cookie Cutters!
Today I broke my pattern and instead of going directly to and from the Weimar Office, I wandered through town after Coffee and Cake.
It was no surprise to me when I found the most recent permutation of Weimar’s never ending Goethe and Schiller worship: The Cookie Cutters.

When I work at the Weimar Office, I usually last about three to four hours before I need to get up and go. Today I lasted only 2.5 hours because I was examining page proofs. The page proofs are in really good shape and I am pleased with the quality, but it’s a very intense […]

For the office of United States Representative, District 9, I vote for Baron P. Hill.
I would appreciate acknowledgment that this […]
