"Political language . . . is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind." George Orwell

Orwell is one of my (very few) personal heroes. Now you know why.

I absolutely loathe politics.

The politics of this world have become such a hornet's nest of swirling and stinging lies that I can not hear over the racket of buzzing wings and paper spewing mandibles. And unfortunately, it is the general population who is sickened by the venom.

BTW, I arrive March 7. Send me a number on the hotmail address I sent you and I'll give you a ring when I get settled.
