foxes & weeds

US Senator Crapo arrested on DUI

Oh my God, he forgot he was a Mormon

Gallup reports the 8 out of 10 countries with most positive emotions:

Panama, Paraguay, El Salvador, Venezuela, Trinidad & Tobago, Guatemala, Ecuador, Costa Rica

is it the weather/drug combo?

clove oil at my wrists, a drop of DigestZen oil in my water  — anise!

head out to weed east & south

particularly berries, but a few weeds east of the acequia distract me

as did more around the willow

my body decides to work around the house, what I see most

so I prune & dig mint, deadhead coreopsis —

the dead stems & flowers ruin the garden

dead & dying matter underneath the plants

likely coreopsis can’t stay beautiful in constant dry heat

a blog of what passes through me

everything I would have fb’d or journaled

today titled Way

why not buy a car in Paraguay

sell our limited-to-driving-in-Argentina car

drive anywhere we want

every one of South America’s thirteen countries

Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile,

Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana

Paraguay, Peru, Suriname, Uruguay, & Venezuela

it can’t be that simple

Argentina will have a law against it

Argentine political analyst Joaquin Morales Solá says:

the speech full of resentment and the policy of confrontation

so ingrained in the national and popular government

have erased any border between good and evil

the subsidies policy without any matching efforts in education or work

resentment from vandals against those who “have” something or very much

the property of somebody else is a right of those living in the margins

the prevailing social doctrine which says anyone can do whatever they wish . . .

because “the ‘have not’ are in their right to take from the ‘haves’

there is a judicial thinking, currently predominant,

which simply wants to abolish the Criminal Code

foxes here are in poor health

shortly after 14:00 on this hot afternoon

this fox drinks from the pond

wanders west

stops for a lick

before disappearing into the vineyard

suddenly a solution
first you see coreopsis

then you don’t

end of problem
