Sometimes I wonder why I read Cary's column before I read anything else on Salon.com. Then he says something like:
"But for a longtime resident of Barcelona, who has long been in the warm embrace of his family, for him to come to this splintered, fractious, ignorant and superstitious land of bounders, sales associates and itchy prophets of doom, to ask him to live among this restless, rootless, warlike people: It might all be a little much."
and I know why.
