There are certain four letter words that one does not use in polite society or in a family BLOG. There are a few i.e. DOLE and GORE residing in the dustbin of time. But this past week headline writers received a "bonanza" - BUSH III - SONY - CUBA and the POPE. Short - concise - and loved by the tabloids POST and NEWS and cherished by tweeters. Recall the New York headline of long ago "DROP DEAD - PRES. FORD. The "fives" including Obama, Putin and Rubio will have to settle for page two for now.
But stay tuned - we may get an encore. As the old desk editor demanded of the rookie reporter -"Are there any NEWS?" To which he replied "No, there is no NEW."
