Can't We Slow It All Down?
Can't crises take turns, like the rest of us? Learn to wait in line?I'm dizzy with the Breaking News all the time.
No wonder our blogs are slipping to the meaningless and trivial. Overwhelmed by your impotence regarding the plight of the Japanese? Charlie Sheen is a natural distraction, a tsunami implanted in a TV star.
Horrified by what's starting to look like a major slaughter of Libyans by Omar Q., there's always a hot photo of Kim Kardashian in a bikini to ease the pain.
It will ease the pain, won't it?
If all bargaining rights are taken from private- and public- sector employees, can we still get a nice pin-ups of our favorite stars to take the place of our Social Security checks?
In the meantime, Baby Doc has probably dipped into Haiti's relief funds while everybody's distracted.
Leave me alone. It's time for my favorite shows.
