Dona and I got back to Austin Monday evening, after an uneventful flight from Guatemala City. We’re kicking back for a week before I go on to Vegas and California–Watching a few movies and catching up with current events via Rachel Maddow. Whoo-ee! What a show! Like watching in slow motion a train crossing a bridge spanning a canyon, where the span has been blown up, and the cars are plunging to their doom, one by one, dragging the others inevitably along. At the edge of the cliff, passengers are crowding each other to jump off before their own car goes over. And in the back of the caboose is the last one–will he jump? Or will he go over? Stay tuned!
