Greetings to the C99P community. Welcome to the Tuesday edition of "Open Threads for Open Minds", where off-topic is on target. This is a place to park your thoughts and observations, political and otherwise, in a friendly environment. Witticism and gallows humor encouraged. ![]()

on swinging porch
where tin-dippers and
sweet water
in cool touches
meet lips
from hand dug wells.
