A final word to my fellow amnesiac before I stick two biros up my nostrils and slam my head down against my desk

This is from 'America the Beautiful', a post-election column by Louise J. Esterhazy, found on the back page of the January edition of W magazine (for the record, Ms. Esterhazy's prominent monthly column is called 'Last Laugh'):
"But American politics isn't really my bag, especially since I'm am old Austrian Countess..."
Clearly, this is where we went wrong, compadre. We were never old Austrian countesses.
