Most recently and tragically, however - and ongoing as I write this - a series of bombings and shootings in Bombay has killed more than 150 people, including at least 15 foreigners. The horror has been documented in endless repeat-loop reels run by the Foreign News Media Machine, most notably CNN. They - in all understatement - have done a terrible job of covering the story. But I won't belabor that complaint in this post. I'm just saddened by the tragedy that has killed so many innocent people including, but not limited to, Hindus, Jews, Christians AND Muslims. I worry about what this tragedy might be used to justify but it's a bit much to cling to knowing conclusions right away. So, for now, with a prayer, I'll move on.
I urge readers to turn off the television, put away all else and immediately download Duran Duran's greatest hits, including "New Moon On Monday" and "Save A Prayer." Then shut your eyes, move your mouth into the overbite position and get down with your bad selves. If you follow these instructions, I predict 20 percent growth in your Happiness GDP.
