Politics, Latin Class, Writing, Asylum Speakers, Sleep

Sarah Sanders may be merely a paid employee, but there are consequences for lying.

Has Fiorella ever told you that she was a Latin star in high school? Got all A's, edited the local mag and the state newspaper, won all sorts of awards. So you can imagine how taken aback she was, when, when, at a class reunion, Elta Ann Owen, who'd been telling someone how she'd corrected her grandson's Latin, turned to Fio and said, "Did you take Latin?"
*
Fio's decided to go ahead with Lolly's story, come hell or high water. No writer ever got anywhere by playing it safe,
*
If you really want to know why Mexicans are seeking asylum across the border, watch a few telenovelas. Fio suggests La Piloto and La Doble Vida de Estela Carillo.
*
It's amazing how much better Fiorella's brain works when when she's had a good night's sleep. Zzzzzz......
