"We were going for our luggage. We were in Chicago. The cheap flight takes you to New York that way. We didn't have to go through immigration, they pass you through in Dublin now. The loudspeaker calls out 'McAliskey.' We go up to your man and say yes, and we're immedately surrounded by three men and a woman. They grab the passports out of our hands. One of the men says to me, "We've a fax from our agents in Dublin. It says you're a potential or real threat to the United States.'"

One of my nephews joined the army reserve out of high school about a year and a half ago, for the free college education. He's been called to Kuwait, stopping briefly in Virginia for last minute training. I guess the show is on.

I'm not sure if this means anything, but coincidence is always intriguing, and I almost posted this, and now since Frank's given me another opening… Anyway, I'll do it here, to avoid trolling for trolls…
So my mother (who, unlike me, actually reads contemporary poetry) sent me (hardcopy, via USPS) a poem she thought I'd like, about birds and love and such. It was by Anthony Hecht. I couldn't really place him, though the name was vaguely familiar, but immediately thereafter I was following a search from my referrer log which led to a page of "literary symbiosis": parodies, symbionts, retellings, etc. There I found a poem I'd long recalled, though I'd read it many years ago and had forgotten the poet. Of course, it was by Hecht. The poem is The Dover Bitch, which gives a third party version of Matthew Arnold's Dover Beach, with an appreciation of the girl's point of view. This had nothing to do with the search, which was for Sumer is Icumen in, but in view of the current weather you should check out Ezra Pound's wicked winterizing of that old lyric, appearing on the same page. If you know what this all adds up to, you can tell me.
