For God, for country … and for self-reinvention?

Let me begin by saying that I have absolutely no idea why I am writing this piece. I am not a writer, and I don’t even have a thrilling summer story to serve as inspiration.

Tip for next time: the whole self-conscious, include-every-thought-that-comes-as-you-write mode is neither funny nor good writing. Re-invent yourself, as you say, and master immediately the art of bullshitting. You'll need it for the next four years.

You'll also attract more readers.

I disagree. It's refreshing to read something that isn't pretentious, trying too hard, or just plain dry.
