“We think we understand the United States, or thought we did,” said Janice Stein, the founding director of the University of Toronto’s Munk School of Global Affairs. “That relationship is gone.” NYT
The residents of Saskatoon
think President Trump is a goon.
They feel his insults,
with dire results;
we've woken the great sleeping loon!

Daikon Industries, which owns the Goodman brand in the U.S., is planning a service with partner NEC Corp. that would detect sleepiness in office workers through artificial intelligence and deliver a blast of cool air to an area around that person. The companies think it will be ready by 2020. WSJ
Office workers, go to sleep;
when you snore we'll softly creep
to your desk with arctic blast,
and you'll think that you've been gassed.
If your eyelids still won't rise,
with ice water we'll baptize.
Thus we make your own workplace
a spot where ev'ry pulse will race!

A letter in which Albert Einstein explicitly rejected God and religion will be auctioned in December for the second time since the famous physicist wrote it a year before his death. WaPo
Great Einstein didn't think that God
should make a person overawed
and thought religion just a scam --
so he came back a soft-shell clam.

Old Beethoven needed to hock
his coat, since he wouldn't write schlock.
The wolf at the door,
he moaned "I'm so poor,
I'm Haydn myself in the Bach."
