TGIF! Weekly Water News Summary, 23 February – March 1, 2013

So much for sequestration; some people are more concerned with a ‘fiscal sinkhole’. Like those in Florida, for instance.

I know who can save us - the Mighty Quinn! Just tell me where to put him and I’ll tell you who to call. If you think I’ve taken leave of my senses, then elect me to Congress.

One thing has not been sequestered – this week’s water news summary – click here.

Enjoy!

Come all without, come all within
You’ll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come all without, come all within
You’ll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn

Let me do what I wanna do, I can’t decide ‘em all
Just tell me where to put ‘em and I’ll tell you who to call
Nobody can get no sleep, there’s someone on everyone’s toes
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here
Everybody’s gonna wanna doze
–The Mighty Quinn, by Bob Dylan
