World weary

That's the title of a Noel Coward song.  It's also appropriate for today's news.

The news is bad
The headline: "Spain recoils as its hungry forage trash bins for a next meal"

Hillary Clinton says:  "One of the issues I have been preaching about around the world is collecting taxes in an equitable manner, especially from the elites in every country ... you know I'm out of American politics but it is a fact that around the world, the elites of every country are making money.  There are rich people everywhere.  And yet they do not contribute to the growth of their own countries.  They don't invest in public schools, public hospitals, in other kinds of development internally."

If class warfare comes I hope they don't burn the buildings, especially the ones on Tenth Street.
Mark Twain's Home.  

Emma Lazarus's Home.
The next WTC being constructed
The day is beautiful

Rainbow in Washington Square Park

And at home: Brotherly Love
