Breaking News

It's that the DOW is down or the politician that was the least offensive to you just got bombed with an expose, or everything you eat is either going to send you to the hospital immediately for food poisoning or eventually because the latest study negates the previous study that made you change your habits so you could avoid the trans fat and so you decided to eat what is now considered highly carcinogenic in the long run, etc.

And I say don't be stuck in silly-head land. Breathe in that apple crisp air. The sky is still blue and not only that, it's a downright drop-dead miraculously clean slate with just tracings of picture clouds for effect -- lit with that rich slant of autumnal sun. The squirrels are nearly as brisk as the wind and the leaves are fire dancing again. Forget the media for a moment. We are all so blessed. God's in his heaven and all's right with the world.
