A judge had a baby appear
so its legal status was clear.
The infant, upset,
did its diaper wet --
the bailiff put it in jail drear.
On Thursday, the Commerce Department is holding a hearing in Washington on whether imported cars and car parts harm national security, the premise of an administration plan to impose hefty duties. If imposed, the tariffs would most likely have deeper and wider-reaching repercussions for the economy than levies on fish or steel. Cars don’t come together in one plant, with one work force — they’re the final result of hundreds of companies working together, in a supply chain that can snake through small American towns and cross oceans.

If we must tax something that's hot,
then why not tax stupor of thought?
It's such a big trend
that it may not end,
but stay in the White House and squat.
Pool officials spoke of the dangerous weight of wet cotton and said the girls’ religiously required clothing [including hijabs] could put a strain on the pool’s filtration system. They cited a vaguely worded, unposted policy.

The pool is a wonderful place,
if you're of the right creed and race.
But if you are not,
no matter how hot,
the lifeguards will make you lose face.
Aren't the movies long enough, without Director's Cut?
They add another hour and it seems to be all glut.
It takes a lot of popcorn to sit through three hours straight,
even if you're with the world's most fascinating date.
I think that movie editors should chop 'em down to size;
forty minutes is enough for any old franchise.
Show the villain; show the girl; then blow up something huge;
the hero then can run a race and shoot the villain's stooge.
It all ends with Godzilla or a spaceship on the moon.
Unless it's Mama Mia -- then the actors simply swoon.
Don't hand me longer movies; the director can go hang --
I want a movie that won't turn into a dull harangue!
