With the many examples of political corruption and white collar crime occurring in
the U.S. capital, Washington
D.C., here's a significant point to consider:
A tourist from Nebraska walked up to a group of cameramen and
a director,
standing in front of the huge edifice of the U.S. Department of H.U.D. (Housing
and Urban Development).

"What new movie are you filming
here?"
An actor turned and said, "I'm starring in the new political thriller,
Boys in the HUD!"

meowing poems?

side to another, the part of a Greek ode sung during a dance, and a two-lined stanza
in poetry.
