TAP TAP Is This Thing On?

Greetings all-

I stopped this blog because it's reason for being had ceased to be: I left the Foreign Service due to a medical issue.

I am happy to report that this medical issue has been resoved, I have returned to duty and am back at a life I had thought long lost to me.

I look forward to returning to regular posts here.

However, be warned: you host has changed quite a bit since you last saw him. Still, I hope you find the regular reports here interesting and engaging.
