Calling it Like it is

 We went to Ashdod today, and we had a lovely, low-key time at the little zoo there and then the beach.

The subject of this blog, however, is a headline in a local paper:

"There is nothing new under the Sun!" The Teachers, According to Their Well-Established Tradition, are Threatening to Strike at the Opening of the School Year

 Will there be a strike? The answer is as always, there will apparently be a strike on the first day of the new school year, starting at 7 am."

The article is very short expansion of the headline, and ends with the reminder that we know the drill: the teachers union generally threatens to strike on the first day back, but they almost never actually do. But seriously, what a great headline.
