Excuses, Latest, Feeble
(Drawing from Annie R. Allen's Blog with Ruth Harris)
When you don't check your e-mail because you can no longer look at a screen of e-mail that does not contain a book somebody wants you to read...and you know you have only the one pair of eyes...and only 24 hours in the day, during at least 4 of which you'll be asleep whether or not you stay at the computer...and the books never stop coming, and about half of them do sound like something you'd want to read, once...
I will find a way to deal with this. Eventually.

Youth Behaving Well, Sort Of
Greta Thunberg, looking (if possible) more baby-faced at 22 than she did at 16, confirms that she really is autistic. The mob scene that met her in Athens must have jangled every nerve she's got to the point of pain. And any woman would have to be autistic, or catatonic, to sustain that obsession with the "evil" being done to Palestinians after watching the video Hamas goons published, boasted of, of what they had done on 10.7.23.
Sorry, Greta. When Palestinians themselves care enough about what's being done to them to surrender, hand over the Hamas goons, and make vows of total nonviolence, it will be possible to listen to your speech and think something other than "Brave...and beautiful...and brilliant...and wrong."
We all know what the Bible says about those who've taught her wrong. May God guide her into the company of people who can teach her that the greatest evil Hamas did two years ago was to themselves and their cause.
