    The importance of taking a break from the clutter

    Reminds me of the Anne Murray song.
    Just once how I’d like to see the headline say
    “Not much to print today, can’t find nothin’ bad to say”, because

    Nobody robbed a liquor store on the lower part of town
    Nobody OD’ed, nobody burned a single buildin’ down
    Nobody fired a shot in anger, nobody had to die in vain
    We sure could use a little good news today

    For me, it’s holding one of my kids at bedtime.

    Quite a contrast from yesterday’s edition, when absolutely nothing happened…

    Yesterday was about fantasy, today is about reality.

    Things have only gotten worse. I’m ready for a dandelion break myself.

    Hmmmm … never put dandelions in my bong. I’ll have to give it a go.

    Eight seconds later, Opus was devoured by carnivorous dandelions. Full story at 10.

    My favorite; “Russian Tanks on the Jersey Turnpike. Details at eleven.” From “Shoe” before the collapse of the USSR.

    To put a positive spin on this, most of the problems mentioned in the first panel are long over. To most people below the age of 30, the Soviet Empire is something they read about in history books, about as relevant as Nazi Germany. Even Ireland has worked out its problems. And no one but the penguins cares about the Falklands.

    I’m surprised to see the mention of El Salvador (my country).. I guess, because I wasn’t alive back then, I would barely know about the impact on the rest of the continent… still, nowadays, I could use a dandelion break
