Song for the banks

I've written a little song:
to the tune of London Bridges:

All the banks are falling down, falling down, falling down,
All the banks are falling down, no more money.

They took the cash and levered up, levered up, levered up,
They took the cash and levered up, with our money.

Called it debt and wrote it down, wrote it down, ...
Called it debt and wrote it down, took a pay raise.

Take the TARP and prop them up, prop them up, prop them up,
Take the TARP and prop them up, with our money.

But thier debts are way too big, way too big, way too big,
All their debts are way too big, where's our money?

Geithner didn't pay his tax, pay his tax, pay his tax,
Geithner didn't pay his tax, for his nanny.

He should head the IRS, IRS, IRS,
He should head the IRS, and take our money.

3 more trillion for the banks, for the banks, for the banks,
3 more trillion for the banks, take our money.

All the banks are falling down, etc........

Happy New Year

Oh my, it's going fast!

Election

Whew!

Interest in interest

Last night the rich nations all got together and decided to cut interest rates. All over the world! And they did it, just like that!
What I don't hear anyone talking about is the mutual dependence, power and vulnerability this
implies, and how we could solve our energy and CO2 problems as well, just as quickly once
we understand how it impacts the rich and powerful!

Dancing on Air

The other night at a tango lesson the teacher danced with me, for about 2 whole phrases of music. (Teachers often demonstrate moves with us students, but just dancing is rare, at least for me, so far.) It was like dancing on air, velvety air, I don't think I took a breath the whole time. We were floating and our feet were doing something mysterious far below, every every second seemed magnified as I stretched my leg as far as possible behind me for a back step, ... ah, so cushioned, how does he make walking feel so soft? And now a turn ...wheee! I'm spinning so fast .....oh it's over, oh my, where are we?
Why doesn't he just teach all these guys to do that? (I get impatient!) Tango doesn't look from the outside like it feels doing it-- like so many things in life! The feeling of velvety floating stayed with me for days!
