waiting for the other shoe to drop......


Do you believe in coincidences?  Do you believe in the tooth fairy?  I long ago gave up the idea that things "just happen".  Somewhere back a bit a butterfly flapped its wings in India and then an eventual ill or good wind blew my way.

I'm perplexed that today's banner headlines highlight a heretofore hidden reactor in Iran.  It just happens to be "found or disclosed" when the President is at a G summit in Pittsburgh.

I hearken back to the sudden terror alert surrounding Citibank right after the John Kerry's nomination. We now know that wasn't a coincidence.  Now we have all this "news" that, when the onion skin is peeled back, seems to have been known for a bit. So why now - why today?

What is happening at the G-summit or elsewhere that we need this shoe to drop......

There is an old civil war story of Union troops having a casual lunch when all kinds of deer and small game suddenly ran through their camp space.  The veterans took cover while the new recruits just admired their good fortune of plentiful game for the next meal.  "Why are you hunkered behind that tree Jeb, them just deer and rabbits...they won't hurt ya' a bit".  "I ain't hunkered here for fear of a deer sonny, I'm hunkered here because of the Reb army that's drivin' 'em".
