Just asking

Why can't baseball players who win a big game or a best-of-something series devise some other celebration rather than dance in a circle with heads down and arms around each other's shoulders? 

Why are we sending CF-18s to battle ISIS when the humanitarian aid we promised in August has yet to arrive and the last I heard we've welcomed less than 100 of the 1,000 refugees we promised to take from Syria. Why are we not accepting thousands of refugees as we have done ever since the Hungarian Revolution in 1956 through Uganda and Vietnam to Somali and Sri Lanka. What has happened to our generous civility?

Whatever became of novelty songs? You know, like Bryan Hyland's "Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini" or  "The Little Nash Rambler" by The Playmates?

What is it with Dracula and the many and various Vampires? There seems to be an insatiable appetite (pun intended) for movies and books about the bloody minded monsters. Is it a sexual thing?

Mozart was touring Europe at the age of seven. Schubert composed his first symphony at sixteen. Their work is played and honoured today. What child prodigy of this era will be enjoyed two hundred years from now?

Just asking.
