Pragmatic Interlude
Due to genre constraints, the following has been deemed necessary by the the FBBI (Federal Bureau of Blog Intelligibility):
My previous post was the promised blog dedicated to the man we affectionally call Boutros and who was christened John Pollini. Unfortunately, I have not been able to collect the accompanying pictures yet, so I would recommend either waiting til those are posted (which will take over ten days) or read it while promising to reread it when said pictures are posted. Trust me. I should also mention that while the piece is obviously littered with what is called in common parlance "inside jokes," everything described about or spoken by the character Pollini ACTUALLY was said or happened. I promise. He's really made a difference in all of our lives that I dare not hope to convey in words, photos, or even charades/impersonations.
I should also take this opportunity to mention that as of tomorrow morning I will be out of Athens for another ten days, during which I may not have internet. That being said, I will leave you with this hope, however insufficient you deem it to be: not only will a report of my trip be forthcoming, but tales from the legendary Halloween party that occurred last night. I went to bed after 5, so there's lots of material there. Of course, I could forget it all...

I removed the previous comment posted due to a grammatical error. Yes. I am that ridiculous.
And it wasn't really a substantial comment anyway.
Buff, I can't even begin to express my jealousy at the fact that you get to enjoy wine and good eats at various outdoor restaurants in Athens. We are going to do excessive amounts of that when I come to the Old Continent. I hope you're enjoying the hell out of your 10-day excursion. Once I crawl out of my grad school applications hole, I will be back in touch. Until then, keep enjoying fiction that you can't fully appreciate.
