PROBABLY JUST ME

(Or maybe George).

Anyhow, I love the juxtaposition of these two headlines in Yahoo! News today:

Bush Seeks Better Ties In Latin America

New Mexico Makes The Bolo The Official State Tie

Apart from the obvious (and amusing only to me . . . and maybe George) connection of "tie" (the tie between ties?), there's the New Mexico-Mexico thing. And then of course we've got the selection of a particularly Latin object as the official something of a state that borders Latin America, and . . .

Ohhhhh, if you like this sort of thing you can extend the conceit yourself. And if you don't like it, you probably stopped reading already.

(Man, I'm goofy sometimes.)
