Geography, Puns, and Caffeine

And now for something completely different:

It was 2am and I read the Facebook status of a friend which begged a reply from me.

Prompt: "Jamaican me Hungary"

Reply: Howabout Uganda at the Chile I cooked with the Canada (canned?) vegetables that I fried in Japan - I poured some in your grandmother's China and Iran to tell you it was ready but you left Togo to Rwanda (wander) in the park with a Guyana friend named Chad who plays the Qatar so I Bhutan some plastic wrap because there was Norway I Malawi (am allowing) it to go to waste.

Premise

Why start a blog?

Because, of course, I need to practice the act of writing. I need to be writing regularly just as I ought to be exercising regularly and exercising any potential skill regularly. I need to be disciplined. Through diligence and discipline I will become less shameful and maybe a little more impressive. Right now I am and I should be very much ashamed of myself. So I must lift my regularly downcast eyes to the pen and the page, and then to the keyboard and the screen.

Why call this blog "Alien Nation"?

I recognized that better blogs have themes. I also recognized that my past writing might argue two themes: estrangement (like those of any other reader and writer who practice their estranging acts) and internationalism, by which I mean the appreciation of foreign countries and the people from them. Perhaps then the concept of my blog will be this: an exploration of what it means to believe that I am alone in this world - that I and anyone else are part of an Alien Nation.
And I love puns.
