Shares In Futility Up Sharply In Early Trading...

     Listening to a steady drumbeat of news this morning, the local TV stuff that wakes me up, NBC, NPR, BBC, and it strikes me that "Alas" is a damn poor motto to live by.  People are starving and it's become an opportunity for online grifters and self-serving propaganda vids from the nations causing the starving, or at most throwing pennies at the problem while looking the other way and hoping it will end soon.

     "Alas."  Guess it'll make a nice epitaph.

    It's all right, because as the junior senator from Iowa says, "Well, we all are going to die, for heaven's sakes, folks".

    My wife is having a shirt made which says, "You first, Joni".

    A nice epitaph and a book title as "Alas, Babylon". Hmm, that doesn't comfort me like I had hoped.
