Notes from Germany
I am an American expat living in Germany. It's a far away land on the other side of the ocean. It's interesting and often weird here. If you read this and want to comment then email me at blog(the at symbol)chillmost.com. If you find any spelling or grammar mistakes, you can keep them.

Went to a flea market and got two English books; Bonfire of The Vanities by Tom Wolfe and Hawaii by James A. Michener. I like Tom Wolfe's stuff although A Man In Full was a little weak. He is one of my favorite American contemporary authors. I took the Michener book because I've always seen my dad reading a few of his books and I'm down with the historical fiction. So I figured I would check it out.
A few weeks ago in Lüneburg the castors came through on trains and there were all kinds of demonstrations and hot cop on protester action. Here are a few links about event and about the overall nuclear power phase out in Germany.
