Vale!

Whenever I see a news item about Romney, I think it’s about the English artist who did such great drawings of Orpheus and Eurydice. I am always disappointed. This is made even worse by the fact that the artist’s first name is George (the same as Mitt Romney’s father–the guy who incautiously said he had been brainwashed about Vietnam).

Political Romneys come and go. But Eurydice will be vanishing forever.

Orpheus attempts to embrace Eurydice as she vanishes in a puff of logic; weird deathy figures in the upper right corner.
