A world gone made

A day at the beach can do wonders for the psyche. After reading and reporting on so much violence and deceit (i.e., the Middle East, American politics, etc.), it was nice to just hang out in Long Beach Island, wade into the ocean up to my waist (the temperature was a frigid 57 degrees yesterday) and ignore the world/

Too bad, the world refuses to be ignored. Waking up to the newspapers today, I — like the rest of the world — faced the prospect of World War III (this, this, this and this, and then later in the day, this and this).
