The Real Reason the Twin Towers Fell

The tax law final was hard. Filled with questions like, Julius & Murgatroyd are a married couple under age 65. Julius is retired on permanent and total disability. What is their adjusted gross income limit to qualify for the hardly-ever-used (because never indexed for inflation) Credit for the Elderly or the Disabled?

But I got 94% on it, so you know: Go me.

Before I collapsed to watch endless episodes of The Real Housewives of Miami, Season 2—which is simply the best season of The Real Housewives ever made—I forced myself to tromp because exercise.

It was a very grey day.

It wanted to rain, but it did not rain, so the landscape was pregnant with a sense of thwarted desire. Not conducive to photography, so instead I offer you a photograph of golden grove unleaving during day-before-yesterday's drive through the Catskills:



Season 2 of The Real Housewives of Miami is iconic!!! So many vile people! So much bad behavior! What's worst? Aging Brazilian narcissist Adrianna punching foul-mouthed-but-seraphic-appearing model Joanna in the face at a lingerie party/charity event put on by Miami's Boob Doctor to benefit the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation? Or coked-out Nazi-cum-Real-Estate-Developer Thomas Kramer so perfectly blending misogyny & patriarchy at the Dinner Party from Hell?? (Shortly thereafter, Kramer was convicted on a RICO charge.)

Ben always maintained that the real reason Osama bin Laden took down the Twin Towers was because of The Real Housewives.

And you know, I think he just may have been right.

Anyway, I have carved out an entire day to play with the Work in Progress. So, that is what I'm gonna do.
