When I decided to write this post, I was standing in front of our small post office here at the University of the Nations in Kona, holding a letter in my hands, which the postal service had returned to me. “Requires postage” was written on an acompanying note. And they had added an excerpt of their conditions of delivery, too. It was the result of my first try to send out a letter as “Free Matter For The Blind” here in the United States. I must have missed to follow one of the rules (here you get them as a pdf), but nobody (including the assistant of the postal service, whom I called for clarification) could exactly point out, which one it was.

This was the moment in which once more I started wondering: Somehow, accessibility and services for the blind did not seem to work the same way here in the USA as in Switzerland.

Or am I doing something wrong?

I finally am able to provide you with two clearly distinguishable RSS feeds for your personal JaunsCorner.COM Experience.

Since you read this in English, I guess you are most interested in the New English RSS Feed.

If, however, you would prefer having the posts coming to you in German, just subscribe to The German Feed instead.

JaunsCorner.COM Multilingual is made possible thanks to the great Polyglot Plugin!

Check out The Article by Beverly Thomas on The YWAM Connect Network. It is an interview she did with me a few days ago. It features Leo, my (oh how miserable) life story, including my faith testimony, as well as a summary on what I’m doing here in Kona. I think only registered YWAM Members can view the link above. I will try and make an alternate version available when I’ve got the time. If you are or were a YWAMer and can’t find your way in, Let me know.

“Ladies and Gentlemen, we inform you that the departure of flight #29178 to Blah Blah International Airport will be delayed. The reason for the delay is that we do not have an aircraft for this flight. As soon as we have an aircraft, we will announce the updated departure time of this flight.

Should you have an aircraft spare or know on where to get one for cheap, please report to our crew members as soon as possible. We thank you for your cooperation.”…

Note: I made only the last two sentences up!
