In the news...

Once in awhile a group of headlines simply appeals to me. Not for their humor, but for the way the various stories combine to present a remarkable view of society, a cross-section of stupidity, malice, venality and all the things that make humanity interesting. It's kind of like the Sesame Street song, "These Are the People in Your Neighborhood" but with a focus on criminality, not public service.
