That’s from Sleepy John Estes. The point is to announce a policy change here at Expatriate Games. I’ve now been away from the land of my birth for five years, as my recently renewed Dutch resident ID attests. I’m still a U.S. citizen and have never thought of giving up my citizenship. To quote Charles Foster Kane, “I have been, am now, and always will be an American.”
But five years is a long time to be out of the loop. I can only speak of the Amerika I knew and experienced until January 2019. To continue to comment on what I can only learn from various news media, youtube videos, and podcasts generated by people who claim to “be in the know” would reduce me - to my mind - to the level of those whose only knowledge of Amerika comes from such sources, bolstered perhaps by reality TV shows, Michael Moore’s “documentaries,” and several days spent there on holiday.
So, I will have to find other things to write about. Thanks for checking out and supporting the old stuff, and I hope you’ll stick around to see what happens next.
Look at Boogie - awwww
Looking forward to the heart-healthy recipe section - fire away.
