Lame Ducks

The current occupant of the White House now in his second term is referred to as a "lame duck" despite recent achievements. But the real "lame duck" is the one that floated into Philadelphia as part of the Tall Ships display. This rubber duck - sixty-one feet tall - was being towed up the Delaware when its tow sprung a leak and it had to seek refuge on the Camden, N.J. side. They tried again on Saturday but it couldn't handle the strong winds and had to be deflated. It hardly matched the floatation stability of the rubber ducky in my bathtub.
