The news scares me.

So I've been dealing with an acute work-related stupidity disability in recent days, but I suppose that I also haven't been blogging current events too much because it's sort of depressing and/or horrifying to survey said current events. Case in point: I got home tonight, after another stupid day and a somewhat rejuvenating stop at the bar, and for whatever reason I looked in on my Yahoo! mailbox. Here were the news headlines that were thrust at me upon login:

• Bankers vow to build trust with increased lending (AP)
• Big satellites collide 500 miles over Siberia (AP)
• Taxpayers may have to cover octuplet mom's costs (AP)
• Official: Wife pulled $15M before Madoff's arrest (AP)
• 69 computers missing from nuclear weapons lab (AP)

That's not a heartening list. 'Nuff said. I think I'm going to go and hide in Hulu for a little while. Cheers.
