It has been awhile since I last blogged about going to the gym, so I thought it was high time for a quick update: progress is being made.
No, I’m not losing weight, yet – although I will say I think that in the past week there is movement in that direction.
I am, however, […]
Last night I met up with Snooker in Berlin and saw Aus Anderer Sicht: Die frühe Berliner Mauer – or The Other View: The Early Berlin Wall.
Honestly this is one of the best exhibitions I’ve seen in a long time – it’s the kind of exhibition where I lost track of time. I literally […]
In a couple of weeks I shall have crossed the Contiguous United States line—having visited all 48 of the contiguous states, leaving only Alaska and Hawaii to be visited sometime down the road.
I thought that I would share my memories of the states – at first I thought about doing it in alphabetical order, […]

As I imagine it, people are bored of me (and others) all bitching about the same thing pretty much continuously for the last few weeks: the lack of summer this summer here in Berlin
So when yesterday’s forecast had a big ball of flame on it, and it didn’t turn into clouds, I got excited […]

Amusingly the FBI uses some numbers that I’ve seen before to scare the shit out of idiots:
A child goes missing every 40 seconds. Many […]
Ah, it’s that day of the year, again, when the meter reader for the water and heaters stops by to determine how much water and heat I’ve used in the last 12 months.
Last year I got lucky and the guy stopped by my apartment almost immediately—thus releasing me from hours of sitting on the […]
I’ll soon be taking vacation and heading across the pond to my native land. While there I have a number of exciting activities planned, friends to see, and vacation to vacate.
As a part of the vacation, I’ve decided it’s high time to knock off my 48th United State, Rhode Island. It will leave me […]
This year the Whiney Expatriate Blogger Meet-Up (WEBMU) is going to be October 21 through 23, in Köln.
For those of you unfamiliar with WEBMU, it’s an annual meet-up of English language bloggers based in Germany. During the meet-up, we get a tour of the host city, share meals, and, on Saturday night, go on […]
