Sorry...

Swedish man guilty of harassing
neighbor by dumping sack
of killer slugs In her garden.

Sorry. I am being visited by mother-in –law and brother-in-law. Morialekafa will probably not appear until Tuesday evening (18th) at the earliest.
In the meanwhile enjoy the oil spill and reflect on how safe it is to drill on the ocean floor a mile below the surface, how honest and responsible the oil companies are, nuclear energy, and what for want of a better term, we might call the “ultimate real.”

No man is an island,
Entire of itself.
Each is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less.
As well as if a promontory were.
As well as if a manner of thine own
Or of thine friend's were.
Each man's death diminishes me,
For I am involved in mankind.
Therefore, send not to know
For whom the bell tolls,
It tolls for thee.

John Donne
