Far Away review – dystopian drama takes close look at a world at war | Theatre | The Guardian
Would love to see a production of this! Thanks for bringing it to my attention, Dave. Might not be as far-fetched as it sounds--well, at least as a very apt metaphor.

All this fuss about a necktie? Dear sir, imagine being a woman concerned with proper fashion (life for them must be hell)

Tune Up the Band for the Fund Raisers
Memorial Reflections (new title) Where have all the paper poppies gone (commemoration of the fallen since WW1) have they followed the parade route behind the March of Dimes (cardboard folders, punched out pockets for a dollar's worth of coins) and those eager children bearing twine to tie up bundle...

Re: Whale Tale
Thank you both, Tracy and Mark. Seems shark attacks are also on the rise--our local beaches have been closed. It's easy for me (being an alarmist as I am) to imagine it's something in the water, aether, cosmic consciousness causing a rise in just plain meanness---the sea strikes back and who can bla...

Re: Words
Indeed, Mark. We are all worn to a frazzle by a gagillion "toxins" in our skies--choose your particular geographical space. Good to see your electricity is on. I had solar panels put on my roof but still dependent on local power company. But we have a small solar driven generator that powers a littl...

Whale Tale
Breaking news--Atlantic Ocean boat attacks by orcas on the rise. believed led by a single female, known as White Gladis, traumatized, perhaps, by one too many high-seas encounters with encroachers from the forbidden land. Gladis sunk their boat and word got around: YES WE CAN and because retribut...

Re: Ambuscade
The buck stops nowhere.
I am guessing that's an allusion to president Harry Truman's assertion that "the buck stops here". No more it seems. There is no accountability in the swamp anymore. Is this how it all ends?
