Moscow: not with it.

I wasn’t really “with it” when I was a teenager. I’m still not with it, despite impressions you might get from this here quasi-hip blog.

For example, one day at school, some kids were talking about rap. We were probably outside at recess smashing snow in each other’s faces. A majority of the kids in school were children of US Diplomats, meaning they all lived in Virginia. So when one kid asked me if I knew where Compton was, I answered, “Virginia.”

Any reaction by the other kids you can imagine is probably accurate.

maybe you should think about changing this blog's name to "moscowman". bring back the dishwasher already. or the pedantic posts about expensive wine.
