Bill Bryson moves to America.

Bill Bryson moved to America 20 years ago, and wrote a column about living in America through foreigner eyes even if he's technically a US citizen, who lived here his entire childhood which was published as a book.

Helga loves books:

I met her at some concerts with Manfred, and she asked me to read some of Bill Bryson's stories at an event. She billed me as an American Musician, and we were overly enthusiastic about our topics and had to cut our thoughts short at the end of the evening. 

    

Here I am with her American Snacks (red white and blue popcorn) and  her poster board about Bill Bryson.
Long story short, Europe is just like America was 20 years ago, and they are converging, slowly but surely on all the commercialism Europe used to make fun of America for.

I recently spent an awful lot of time restarting an old project ....

Perspicuity and Perspicacity was a one-sentence blog, that Amanda and I did together. On good days, there are 2 sentences a day. We can both be a bit sporadic at times. I moved it over from livejournal one sentence at a time, and then I started writing there again myself. With a little bit of peer pressure, maybe Amanda will get the bug again.

here is the new link:
