A browse through yesterday's headlines could be viewed by me, by you, or by Gwen Stefani as altogether mighty frightening:
- "Passenger jet show down over Ukraine ... 298 dead ... 23 Americans killed ... Ukraine says 'will present evidence of Russian military involvement.'" (Added bonus: Before scurrying off to multiple fundraisers Thursday night, "Obama gives crash 40 seconds before telling jokes" and "blaming [gop-ers] for slow-walking transportation spending." How shocking!)
- "Israel launches Gaza ground invasion" against Palestinians.
- "Wall Street bubble paranoia setting in," market off 161 points.
- "Autumn-like chill to expand from Midwest to South, East."
- "Cold temps break 128-year record in Mobile, Alabama."
- "Town blasts music to drive out gypsies."
- "Hundreds of dead pigeons fall from sky in Houston."
- "San Diego strippers sue police over naked pictures during 'inspections.'"
- "USGS: Risk of earthquake increades for half of USA."
Good Grief! So this is it, the Apocalypse? Asked the Imagine Dragons. The end times? Variously referred to as the Rapture or Armageddon?
ANSWER: Nope. Sorry. Hold off for now on hoarding away them ramen noodle and beans pallets down to the Sam's Club. The world ain't coming to an end just yet, me predicts.
Not to mention, all of these headlines come from heavily trafficked news aggregator website Drudge Report, where right-winger headline writer Matt Drudge tends to make every day seem like the damn sky's 'a fallin'!
BTW, what's wrong with snapping a few stripper pics or having some gypsies hanging around town?
