along came a spider

poor georgie’s almanack:
The West will Muff-it, if it sits on its tuffet and lets the Kurds be eaten along the whey.

listen to the ominous silence

poor georgie’s almanack:
A French Jew reminded NBC that last time around Jewish optimists who stayed went to Auschwitz. Pessimists went to New York.  Today, the clock is not ticking because it is digital.

is it a bird? is it a???

 poor georgie’s almanack:

I asked a friend for paradigms to use today.  

He gave me four nickels and two ten-cent coins.  

Now that was a paradigm shift.

a house divided

poor georgie’s almanack
Below is from very funny/sad story in today”s Washington Post about the call for votes yesterday which resulted in the re-election of Mr. Boehner as Speaker of The House.     http://wapo.st/1tN8NaL

Not too long after that, the clerk called on Rep. Ted Yoho (R-Fla.), who had offered himself as a challenger to Boehner.
“Yoho?” called out the clerk.
“Yoho!” voted Yoho.
“Yoho,” repeated the clerk.
It’s off to work we go.
