State of the World

Two halves that can never be put back together.

Actually, this is the one surviving melon from my garden.  It seemed they presented too tempting a taste treat to some night visitors and when I went out to check this morning, only this one remained.... with only a few teeth marks and nibbles on one end.

“They’ve sought to reduce (the talks) to insubstantial media formality, even as the legislative agenda continues onward deaf to the voices of the citizenry.”

Sound familiar.  No, it is not about the US.
