http://jphastings.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Blog experiment 1.0: Thoughts from Angola (and a few other places). So I'm having trouble processing my work visa here in Angola. Aside from a Portuguese copy of my diploma, a police report from my hometown, my resume, and a to-date grand total of 12 passport-sized photos, the authorities require a letter from a physician stating I'm in good health. I arranged all of these documents and turned them in well ahead of time. Hi Mr Blobby,. Based on the prior experience of some of our colleagues XXXX and I ar...

Blog experiment 1.0: Thoughts from Angola (and a few other places). These signs pretty much speak for themselves. I'll just add that this phenomenon was probably the best unexpected feature of my trip to Ghana - it may have been unbearably sweaty, humid, and hot at times, but these signs never failed to put a smile on my face.

Blog experiment 1.0: Thoughts from Angola (and a few other places). The meal was great (lobster on the buffet line is never a bad thing) but I was caught off-guard when it became clear I was expected to make a speech.
