Interlude
Thanks for checking in with the blog while posting is slow. Stay tuned for another travel piece about the relatively liberal and relatively green north of Tunisia.
Oh, and please do not feed the trolls in the comments section. I've deleted the troll posts in the past couple of threads. I will not have my comments section become a platform for neo-Nazi Euro-trash, which is unfortunately what had happened while I was conveniently off the map. If you do respond the troll posts, be aware that your comments will later look strange when they are stripped of their context after the troll posts are deleted in the future.
In the meantime, keep an eye on America for me. And have a great weekend.

No health advisories this time!
Enjoy your trip. We have the watch and will keep an eye on things, indeed.
Sorry about the bread on the water episode below, but I just couldn't resist.
Posted by: TmjUtah at July 15, 2004 09:57 AMGreat notes, Michael. Perhaps I can suggest 3 minor edits in your travel post, here:
lamps not laps; strike not stike; obvious not obvioss (?).
A "Gypsum laps" WAS googled successfully:

But I'm pretty sure you didn't mean gem cutting laps.
If you haven't seen the JibJab "This Land", it is truly hilarious. http://www.jibjab.com/thisland.html
