In a fog

Since Henry Kissinger is in a fog about how to resolve the Iraq conundrum, whatever shall we do. Finding our way back out of this horrendous nightmare will take more years than it took to create the destruction. His recent silly statements regarding "this" unnecessary war, when he knows full well we did not win in Viet Nam - we flew off the rooftops middle of the night in the 1970's in defeat? He must be on Prozac.

Not that I am NOT very happy that the Democrats did win across the board in the last elections. But most of us do realize that they have years and years worth of laws that must be rescinded, a supreme court system that is pumped up with truly dangeous zealots, and a destroyed military in terms of worn out troups and broken equipment. Could we actually protect this country in a true emergency?

Step into the fog of the future. As I looked off the balcony in my new place, at the cocoon-like yacht's wrapped for winter's worst - the only bright spot is that personally I feel finally in a more secure space. Six flights up seems safe from cat burglars. And I can watch the games of the rich and famous as they play toy boat with their ...erm big equipment, below me. And settle into the fog.
