Is there any such thing? Let's investigate—for good or ill. A blog about fiction and literature, philosophy and theology, politics and law, science and culture, the environment and economics, and ethics and language, and any thing else that strikes our fancy. (Apologies to Bertrand Russell)

Double Whammy
Harry Shearer's new project, The Big Uneasy, reminds us of the devastation of Hurricane Katrina as we approach the fifth anniversary of that devastating storm—and the disastrous human-caused atrocities that followed. And weren't there reports that armed Blackwater mercenaries were in there as well? I wonder if we'll ever get to the bottom of this.
With respect to the Gulf Oil spill, did you see this? Apparently, petroleum eating microbes have been eating up the oil plumes floating around out there in the Gulf. Hmmm. Where had I heard that before? I can only hope the reporting is accurate. Still, it's too early to gauge the consequences of this human-caused disaster.

Nothing to Say
Sometimes words simply
cannot penetrate the depths
of my dark feelings.
WoW will be on a bit of hiatus till I can get a handle on things. Sorry.
Best,
