This Is A Privately Circulated Blog, scribbled exclusively for Friends & Familiars, that peers into and pontificates about Expat life in the hinterlands of South America. If your eyesight is less than optimal (like mine), then just click the type size up a notch on your browser..


Here you will find a series of curmudgeonly commentaries that I've posted from atop my rickety old soapbox for the past few years. And yes, there are indeed political rantings, so place your seats in the upright position and fasten your seat belts .... it may be a bumpy ride.

Bonfire Of The Vanities



The one thing that this election cycle proves is that my beloved former country is in the midst of crashing and burning ... spectacularly.

Never in all of my 87 years have I witnessed this level of spite and angry vituperate remarks from one candidate to another as from Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. It is simply well beyond the bounds of the usual political devisive discourse of previous elections.

Regardless of the outcome of this political battle, the United States of America itself will desolve into a bloody class civil war. How sad!
