Potpourri XII

What's new? Well, I read where they are injecting yoga into prisons to keep the inmates calm. If Willie Sutton had this he would never have broken out all the time.

Some Presidents are football fans but not all. Calvin Coolidge thought the Chicago Bears were a circus act. You couldn't blame him as owner George Halas was known as the Papa Bear.

TSA has recently announced that airline passengers under the age of 12 and over 75 no longer will have to remove their shoes. Now they tell me just after I switched to velcro.

The American Dialect Society has declared "hashtag" as the word of the year edging out "fiscal cliff"
and "marriage equality" tho the latters were not hyphenated to qualify I would have thought. This gem amplified in NYT 1/8/13 by Jennifer Schuessler.

So, what else is new? Well, a new type of rustler has appeared on the scene in Colorado. Due to the severe drought the thieves are stealing bales of hay. Certainly not looking for the needle.
