That's right, there have been other events this past week, things other than the start of the fall television season. Like a stampede that killed almost a thousand people in a matter of hours in constitution-hopeful Iraq. Al Qaeda claimed responsibility for the London bombings (I suspect they were feeling shut out from the news). There's an interesting piece in the Economist this week about possibilities for native Hawaiian indpendence that would give them the same happy options that native Americans possess (must read to understand). Or check out the latest bad news from Africa, where long term ailments mix with day-to-day crises. Honestly, when do we hear good news stories coming out of Africa? I do believe there is much good going on in this vast continent. My dad's birthday is one week from today; that'll be a day of celebration to be sure. Oh, and apparently there was a natural and man-helped disaster somewhere in the southern United States.
I've missed my humor and sarcasm. The above was a practice run, in the event that future circumstances require immediate implementation. It's all about planning and foresight for me this week.
