Well, Anglofritzers, as much as I live and love to serve you, that's how much the burgeoning summer is calling out to me. And so I must leave you for a brief foray, to return to the land of my patrilineage and catch up on family, friends and rappers.

I'm taking off from Germany tomorrow morning, April 27th, but not without provision. There will still be a series of posts by me next week, in addition to material from our two new guest posters ("Zeitguests"): Victor from New York and Swiss Sebastian. Clarsonimus will also be kicking in, daily, more of the funny and perceptive work that keeps us all Observing Hermann. So your Anglofritz cup still runneth over with a variety of talented authors outdoing me at my own game. Can you believe how transcontinentally served you are getting?

Just don't get too used to it -- I'll be back on Monday, May 8th.
