Don’t care about:

• Whether or not a journalist whose opinion and work I already don’t care about laughed at a press conference with a politician whose opinion and work I mostly don’t like, and whether or not Matt Drudge owes any of them an apology.

Do care about:

• Why Nancy Pelosi, if she must make an ass of our government while embarrassing us and undermining what little foreign policy we have left, can only figure out the most unflattering way to tie a hijab, an accessory well-documented for it’s flattering qualities, and why John the Baptist’s head is in the mosque she’s visiting.

• How my yard beans, which the back of the seed packet needs at least 15 days to germinate, popped up out of their dirt pellets after only one night.

• How my strawberries, which I replanted at 2 in the afternoon, had flower buds on two-inch stems by 6, which weren’t there previously.

• Why, after those last two items, my avocado insists on dying before my eyes.

• As for the first item, sub-item 2, RC2 has answered it (it is I, that “someone” keeping tabs on Gramma in Damascus), including this tidbit:

If the head in the mosque is really John’s, it got there –try to stifle your shock– because the mosque was built on top of a Church.

Oh that’s lovely. Another mosque built on the ruins of a church, but this time they get John the Baptist’s head out of it. At least we know they’ll have little reliquaries for the bits and bobs they get when/if they build over Notre Dame, Blackburn Cathedral, the Vatican…

I’m just wondering if Gramma contemplated the significance of that as she was praying at the tomb.

Bwa-hahahah

Right hand to god, those buds weren’t there when I was planting them. Three hours later, there they were. Two inches high.
