That's the kind of talk I like to hear! As expected, Obama said such talk wasn't helpful and dialogue was what was needed. Hillary (as well as I) agrees, in theory, of course; she is simply threatening very severe consequences if our close ally is attacked. It's not often I have chance or reason to say this, but: good for you, Mrs. Clinton.
Now then, for a total change of subject matter:
On Friday mornings, I would get an espresso from the coffee stand outside the station where I change trains on my commute home from work. On Fridays, I usually stay up to do the bulk of the housework and work on my music and/or writing.
Well, the inevitable happened: I'm getting espressos every morning, even though I'm supposed to be cooling down after a hard night's work, not revving myself back up. But I can't help it. It smells and tastes so good. I consider it a just reward after a night in the office.
But, hey, people have after-dinner coffees in the evening, don't they? Is it really that dumb to have one single espresso two to three hours before I plan to sleep?
There's no escaping the fact, cependant, that my Friday espresso has evolved into a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday espresso as well. If that's not a sign of addiction, dear reader, I'm at a loss to say what is.

Hillary? Talking tough? Wow. Let's just hope she means what she says (she HAS been known lately to misrepresent her words....) I love how people like Obama mention 'dialogue'. Um, dialogue doesn't work when they've nuked the snot out of you. As if evil people can negotiate.
I love espresso - will be getting my gaggia over the weekend at last! (been without it since starting this new job!
