Crazy News

So I decided to glance at my blog roll to see what is going on in the world. And discovered the following:

1. Everybody is optimistic about the default but cannot explain why.

2. Pogroms fueled by ethnic tensions started in Russia.

3. Four-year-olds are being trained to do multiple choice tests in New York which traumatized them (and with good reason).

4. A man in Alabama is paying good money to import Jewish families into his tiny town.

5. Somebody wrote a post essentially saying that I’m stupid without a slightest provocation on my part.

Please inform me when the news cycle gets better because for now I see no reason to go back to it.
