I haven't posted in a while. But it hasn't been for lack of material, since the news has been full of real-life horrors lately.
In New York, a van dragged a (hopefully) dead body for 17 miles before the driver noticed anything was wrong.
In Michigan, a 93-year-old man froze to death when the electric company shut off his power.
In Ohio, a transexual woman has plead guilty to exercising her 73-year-old husband to death in a swimming pool; she received just five years for the crime.
In Georgia and Texas, a sloppily run peanut processing company that sickened hundreds with salmonella and killed eight has filed for bankruptcy. (If you need a URL for this story, you're at the wrong blog.)
In California, a single, unemployed mother of six gives birth to octuplets. Even more distressing, Joaquin Phoenix is acting strangely, too.
In Nigeria, people are claiming a car thief transformed himself into a goat and it looks like the police are buying it.
This time of year -- and this economy -- seem to engender these types of stories. It probably won't be long before we get news of another school shooting.

The evening news is really starting to feel like the "News of the World." Shenanigans.
