Whoosh-a-rama -- or not

Things go - whoosh - right over my head. Its getting worse or always was worse.
On overnight radio , the topic was the U.S. stand-off , Obama vs the House. 51 %of Americans are blaming the Republicans , read , the House and 37 % are blaming Obama and the Senate. Both  guys speaking claimed their stand was for Americans. After the interviews , all that I could think was ' someone's screwed up royal '. 
Here in ON , the Liberal government ( your Democrats ) cancelled 2 gas fired Hydro plants which are no longer needed. The reason for cancelling was to save 2 liberal seats that were in jeopardy. This is the hyperbole we get from the Tories ( Republicans ).
The cost of cancellation was 1 billion $. All parties ( 3 ) would have cancelled the plants. But now , of course , the Liberals are the bad guys.
Had the 2 plants been built the government would have had to pay to keep them idle
NUTS
ON is already paying solar plants to stay off line b/c the power is not needed. On top of that the solar producers were getting a higher Kwatt rate to start.
Whoosh. Sometimes , I figure its better not to read the newspaper - or listen to this crap.

The bubonic plaque is back. In Madagascar , the infection rate is something like 30 %. BTW , ' bubonic ' is not even in " Spell Check " on Google.
Authorities have traced the problem back to rats escaping from a prison and getting into the general rat population. some prisoners had bubonic plaque. 
Imagine even the rats , want out of prison.
Great. I don't think we need more plaque , heck ,we've got Republicans and Tories.

Weather , same old ,same old - fantastic warm ,sunny and super cool at night. Rain comes Sunday.
