Without a t.v., access to a decent paper, or even a radio, it was hard for me to learn about politics here. I barely followed the current affairs - unless it was a big enough deal to affect me. This year we bought a kitchen radio and I slowly started to follow stories I heard on it from the news or other talk shows. In the last two months, I have been watching John Stewart's Daily Show. Things I hear about on the radio and had thought ridiculous - like the massive cat fights during the primary elections - are pointed out and made fun of. Three years ago, he wouldn't have made any sense to me at all. I'm slowly assimilating to the ways of the people.
