Okay, yes, I'm grouchy

No, it's not just because I'm bored. It's also because my brother, who I've not seen in months is sitting not an hour away from here and I've been here for a week and he won't come into the city to see me. Well, recalcitrant brother, I'm sorry, but yes, black people live in Atlanta. And I'm sorry you're uncomfortable with that. But I'm really sorry that I have to go out to the West Georgia Klanvarn to get an audience with you. And I'm really, really sorry that you don't like me better than you irrationally hate people who are different than you. And I'm a little pissed about it.

On the plus-side for your readers, I'm dead interested in reading what the Klanvarn is like. It'd be kind of like a travelogue to Bosnia. I'm curious about the place and the people even though I have no desire to make the trip myself.

Didn't Van Morrison have a song called "Klanvarn"? No?

Does it bother you that he has these values to which you are so opposed, or that he was raised in the same house and should know better?
