LATE BREAKING NEWS FROM ANONYMOUS WHITE HOUSE SOURCE!

Teacher Arrested NEW YORK, July 22 --
A public school teacher was arrested today at John F. Kennedy International Airport as he attempted to board a flight while in possession of a ruler, a protractor, a set square, a slide rule, and a calculator. At a morning press conference, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales said he believes the man is a member of the notorious "Al-gebra" movement. He did not identify the man, who has been charged by the FBI with carrying weapons of math instruction.
"Al-gebra is a problem for us," Gonzales said. "They desire solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off on tangents in search of absolute values. They use secret code names like 'x' and 'y' and refer to themselves as 'unknowns', but we have determined they belong to a common denominator of the axis of medieval with coordinates in every country. As the Greek philanderer, Isosceles, used to say, 'There are 3 sides to every triangle'."
When asked to comment on the arrest, President Bush said,
"If God had wanted us to have better weapons of math instruction, He would have given us more fingers and toes."
White House aides told reporters they could not recall a more intelligent or profound statement by the President

Well its been a long day.
I started at 4:30 and have now caught a minute to post before heading out for dinner. The city is bathed in sunshine and the temperature a comfortable mid 70's.
The people here have style. Even the cops look slick.
Service sucks, but you have to smile when being slovenly is accompanied by such panche. How it all works is a mystery.
If things fall apart, at least it'll look good doing it, preening all the while.
You just have to love it!

More about all that in another post. Off for grub.

Hope all is well
