You Will Travel and Come Into a Great Fortune

That's what my fortune cookie said.
From Slide Show

The last few days have been really weird - the borgs have arrived to pay me a visit, and being subjected to their constant stream of mockery (one likes to think it's friendly banter) here in the US has just raised the level of surrealism to a new high. We have learned many things together, such as:

  • there is no time of day when CSI is not playing on one tv channel or another
  • peanut butter and jelly sandwiches are good, mac&cheese - not so much
  • the posh part of DC stinks to high heavens of rotting leaves, which is cool, in a schadenfreude kind of way
  • taking beautiful pictures of trees in autumn will have you mercilessly derided by people you thought were friends
  • etc., etc.
We're off to New York later today, armed with a post-it note with the address of NYC's best pizza and cheesecake spots, obtained from an insider at great peril to all parties involved.
