YES I am back. If you are a dork about the same things I am a dork about you will enjoy this, the Global Urbanist blog which I have just discovered, and this, Slum/Shack Dwellers International, which I have had an organizational crush on since 2007.
If you are have ever liked a novel ever, or invented Post Soviet States, or dorky Jewish men, you will like this a whole lot - Gary Shteyngart is reading from his new book in Berkeley. Absurdistan, his earlier book, is maybe the funniest book I have ever read.
I also want to give a shout out to my only regular commenter, Marge in Perth. Marge, you are the greatest.
