€S to US
I’m headed off to a two-week trip to the US, back in early February. But I’ll still be able to get on-line most of the time – of course! – courtesy of those whom I’ll be visiting. So my EuroSavant posting – and let’s not forget the meticulous scanning of the on-line European press that lies behind that – should continue; it will just be a question of the time I can devote to that. Actually, it’s quite likely that my frequency will be just as good/bad as has marked January, although no way will I attain the daily posting rate I reached in December before Christmas, when vital, interesting things (e.g. the EU IGC) were actually going on.
I’ll be making a total of three round-trip flights on this journey: six occasions to remove jacket, belt, shoes, etc. and fight as best I can against the presumption that I’m a terrorist who means to do the airplane harm. What fun! I feel like taping this Dilbert cartoon somewhere prominent on the outer surface of a handbag, but I hear that US Transportation Security Administration personnel have even less of a sense of humor about their assigned functions than Scott Adams does about allowing people to reproduce his cartoons directly on their websites.
