Is my mind going numb on me or has the news become less interesting? Sure, there's a war going on in the Gaza Strip between Israel and Hamas, with people across the world shouting out their opinions for one side or the other (or neither). Bush is preparing to leave office, while Obama is preparing to begin his term. The economy is bad off, but how bad off? What's the new president going to do? Russia is in a dispute with Ukraine over gas resources, resulting in a temporary shut-off (by Russia) of the pipeline flowing through Ukraine to Europe. Someone please try to make sense of this news to me! Is Caroline "Y'know" Kennedy going to be selected to replace Hillary as New York's senator? Do you really care? Will Al Franken ever get to be sworn into his Senate seat? Will Blagojevich ever disappear from the news headlines? Even with my University of Florida Gators winning the national championship in football this past Thursday, I'm not all that excited.
Maybe I need to do what that Chinese journalist did a couple of years ago and lift articles from The Onion, reporting them as real news!
