#1 Page 3: Non-War on Terror was definitely the right call, dear Woodrow. Here’s the latest from The Times of Israel:

2 firefighters killed, dozens injured in Paris bakery explosion

Blast appears to have been caused by gas leak; authorities say 10 are in critical condition and 37 others less seriously injured?

And thank goodness it was not, after all, a bomb — whether from the yellow vests or from either native-born or recently imported jihadis.

#2 Ah, Paree! In the Rue de Trevise,
Every breeze seems to whisper, "Louise!"
But it may just be gas,
So please flee from the blast
If the breeze sez, "Jeez, who cut the cheese?"

No disrespect intended toward the casualties. Never really thought about it, but I can't recall a single person in uniform, years ago when I freewheeled around France looking not entirely unlike a bum, being anything but correct, even friendly.
