Off the Grid Humor

By Yahya Jongintaba

As it is unlikely that the humor of Mark Twain in his 1874 book, Roughing It, would have developed the way it did if Twain had not for seven years lived off the grid in the Wild West, indeed at a time today's grid did not even exist and rough was really tough among ruffians and gun-slinging villains, so too it is unlikely that Off the Grid Humor would have been written if its author were not living seven years off the grid in the Wild East. The author's Wild East, off the grid in East Africa, is filled with experiences in and perspectives on a way of life vastly contrasting with the life he departed in "the most on-the-grid country in the world"-America. In that latter country, Yahya Jongintaba was once a distinguished professor named Jon Michael Spencer. Now, in Tanzania, he is an indistinguishable off-the-grider, brown amidst brown tree trunks in forestland of East Africa.
