Hey!  It just dawned on me - 
Maybe the 40 mile 
Russian convoy 
on the way to Kiev
is in sympathy with 
Ottawa truckers

Waddya think, eh?

If half of the government TRULY believes the other half is
under the influence of foreign powers, why the hell
would they agree to be in the same room at a time
when Russia is about to advance strongly on Ukraine?  
Shouldn't they be fearful for their very lives?  

Don't they know 
Reichstags catch fire?

From a risk management point of view,
does it make sense for the entire U.S.
government to be in a single location
this evening?

I remember when CEOs and CFOs
couldn't ride the same elevator
or fly the same plane.

But what do I know!

Imagine the convoy turns around,
preempts its trip to Kiev, recalculates
its route back to Moscow, with greater
intent to succeed now than when their
target was Ukraine, finally - a just mission

144 million Russians in the streets...
all eyes on a single target

Certainly would send the right message

The nurse asked if I indulged in recreational drugs.
I told her no, that all of my drug use was strictly professional.

I am 
at the intersection of
two infinities

From both ends afar
I am
the vanishing point

The zero

I am

Ms. Goldberg,

Today we will conclude with Lesson #2
on "Race: Thinking Out Of The Box."

Before we start, we are sorry to announce that 
this will be the final offering, and that we 
are cancelling next semester's
Master Class.

best regards,
MCS

P.S.  Consider: why not rebrand your show as
Views.  I believe you could pull it off.  Show the way.  
Show the ignorant yentas around the table how it's done.
Make a difference.

The eternally irreplaceable,
parts of our lives that are gone forever,
churches, temples, our keepers of the faith,
hold the names of those who preceded us,
their births, their deaths, joyous life in between,
vulnerable to the flame and the bomb,
but never will they burn or be destroyed,
long may they live, Slava Ukraini!

Inside a looped noose
The world is oh so simple
Just pull on the bow

There in the air, if I listen intently,
the sounds of their cries
(or perhaps they're in my head?)
but wait, are they...quiet!
behind the walls...do you hear it?
the shrill squeal of ill-oiled machines
