It's great to be back. </sarcasm>
Having been in the UK for the previous two weeks, I cannot overstate my disappointment to be back in the USA. I mean, ..., I mean we actually have a President of the United States who is unashamed to make a speech like this. And that fricking moron maintains a 39% approval rating. This has got to be among the worst places in the world. I really, really don't want to live in America anymore.

Welcome home. What did you end up doing about your cell phone while you were over there?

I just skipped it.
Wifi was widely available, so when I needed to, I sent the one-way text. But in the main, I used email. Strangely (or maybe not) didn't miss it at all! ;0)

Some of the 39% have no idea what an island is!

Also, give him credit for two things.
1. He is willing to share freshly acquired knowledge. 2. He did not say "bigly water".
