In case you're concerned this blog has become all-politics-all-the-time here's an interlude that perfectly fits my mood this morning. I've just returned from my morning walk and the weather here in the DC area is simply spectacular. Right now it's in the mid-60's, no humidity, a cool breeze, perfect sunshine. It just doesn't get any better. Here's Van Morrison singing "That's Entrainment" from his latest album (sorry, I still call them albums; old habits are hard to break). When I first heard the song I thought "entrainment" was another made-up-Van word but it's not. It’s a meteorological term meaning to trap, or carry along, a liquid or bubbles. Used to describe a mood, as Van uses it here, it would mean something on the order of giddily happy, effervescent. Which is perfect for this morning because that's how I feel. Enjoy:
