The Pontifical Commission for Vatican City has introduced a new law as a further clampdown on the financial system. The new law gives greater powers to the Financial Information Authority and the Governorate

The name of Lauryn Hill’s breakout album was The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill but it now appears that the powers that be would like her to record a new album called The Re-Education of Lauryn Hill. After appearing in court for tax evasion, Hill was sentenced to three months in jail PLUS she must attend “counseling” due to her “conspiracy theories”.

According to the IBTimes, Hill told the court: “I am a child of former slaves who had a system imposed on them. I had an economic system imposed on me.” Furthermore, Hill also believes that artists are being oppressed by (what the article calls) “a plot involving the military and media”. Because of these statements, Hill was ordered to undergo “counseling”, which is a way of saying that she is mentally ill and that she needs some sort of re-programming session regain “sanity”.

On the plane this morning from Indy to Dallas, then Baton Rouge, I was struck by what seemed to be the “normalcy” of fellow travelers in these volatile times. Mostly polite, though of course, preoccupied, with probably more than 50% at any one time focused on working their thumbs while scrutinizing small print on their cell phones. I imagine each one longs to convey his or her own personal story — of fear, excitement, change, demotion, sudden breakdowns and/or breakthroughs — should anyone care to stop and listen.

This afternoon I walked into sister Paula’s home to find Mom sitting at the kitchen table, eating. Once again, she has seemingly recovered from mysterious weakness and pain, although her  ”new normal” may turn out to be a notch less vital than the old one.

She’s now sleeping, so I can check the internet for stuff that interests me. Like this:
