Letter of the WeeQ

I'm responding to Rob Borsellino's column ("Just When You Thought It Couldn't Get Worse," March 8):

Uh-oh. I think I'm the culprit here. You see, after the last election I was feeling blue, so I prayed that this administration would show all of its flaws and people could make a better choice at the polls next time.

But I didn't know I had this kind of power. One calamity followed the other. I tried to stop it with a counter prayer (as in "enough already"), but the laws of physics must have been in play here (a body in motion tends to stay in motion - I guess that must apply to administrations, too). The moral: Be careful what you pray for!
