Miracles can happen

TS Eliot was wrong - January is the cruellest month. The wasteland when the trees are skeletal, the nights long and dark and your thoughts turn black. When all that's left of the jollity and frivolity of Christmas is a sinking 'glass-half-full-feeling' of economic armageddon, we're in need of a miracle or three. And as if by magic - Friday saw a airliner land on water, Saturday saw a ceasefire in Gaza and tomorrow is Obama's historic inauguration. Enough said.
