It's Friday! It's fun! It's a fun Friday Off-Topic MEGATHREAD! Please keep all the fun condensed in here so the fun goblins can't steal any.

Hi, I'm Josh Rogin, columnist with the Washington Post. I fell ass backwards into journalism while on a path to become a Japan scholar.

After living in Yokohama and working at the Asahi Shimbun Japanese newspaper in DC, I realized nobody wanted to pay me to research Japan, but I had a knack for reporting and writing about foreign policy. Since then, I've worked for Federal Computer Week magazine, Congressional Quarterly, Foreign Policy magazine, The Daily Beast, Bloomberg View and now The Washington Post.

My column is a hybrid of reporting, analysis and opinion. I also do political analysis on CNN. My greatest accomplishment is that I rooted so hard for the Philadelphia Eagles they eventually won the Super Bowl.

We'll get started on the AMA at noon so send in your questions!

Proof.
