The Lord of the Dance!
I associate that phrase, not with the Irish dance troupe, nor yet with the eponymous carol we sing while forming a Conga line at Christmas Revels, but with the story of King David and Saul's daughter Michal. And I immediately thought of it when I saw the video of Trump dancing on arrival in Malaysia, … Continue reading The Lord of the Dance!
Let the Lower Lights Be Burning!
It’s a line from a great old hymn which probably nobody else will recognize, but that’s okay. It comes to mind this Autumn because, although the Poconos have always been known for our brilliant autumn colours, this year was disappointing. The leaves in the canopy, the high,mature trees, just..turned brown and fell off. I have … Continue reading Let the Lower Lights Be Burning!
Does Today Change Anything?
If you’ve lived long enough you remember Henry Kissinger and his sonorous talk about the “Peace process” between Israel and its Arab neighbors. Hearing him say that, you just knew the present state of affairs was going to continue forever. And it did, for the rest of our lives. Until now.

The screen blossomed with the roiling, fulminating smoke of the twin towers giving up the ghost on that awful day 24 years ago.Yesterday I saw the video of Charlie Kirk’s shooting. His rose-red lifeblood bursting, … Continue reading ”The beauty of Israel is slain upon thy high places..”
“Just Born Into The Wrong Body”
Another trans guy has shot up a buncha kids. And last night on Fox, Trace Gallagher reverently welcomed Bruce “Caitlin” Jenner, whom we’re all s’posed to love on the sole ground that he opposes men playing in women’s sports. His bass voice breaking, he tearfully opined that murder isn’t trans, Cock Robin (the latest shooter) … Continue reading “Just Born Into The Wrong Body”
Scratch a Farmer….
..no, really, that’s all I want to say: scratch a farmer, please! Our hand is in vacation, so I have to do his chores, which means throwing hay twice a day. It’s kinda a fun task, hay smells so good, I get to eyeball our horses every morning and evening so that I’d know if … Continue reading Scratch a Farmer….
