Curacao

A bit off-topic, but amusing.

My wife is living on the island of Curacao for a while for a variety of reasons. I was there with her but returned to America because frankly I despise the island and all of its inhabitants. I'd be happy to explain why at length; send me an email and I'll write your ear off about it. Back to the topic at hand.

Mohsin Hamid has written an insightful and interesting piece for the Washington Post. Hamid was born and raised for a while in the United States before his parents moved back to Pakistan, and so he has a unique appreciation for the viewpoints of both anti-American radicals and American patriots.
