Information about the economic situation has given me a lot of stress and aches in the head. Sometimes I think that if I'd never heard of it at all I'd be none the sadder, none the wiser.

Some people are lucky I guess.

Some knowledge is worse than useless.

My newspapers pile up and I read them on the weekends. Mostly I look for stories about people and culture and interviews. That's why I like the radio show This American Life. Check it out if you haven't already. I've got a couple regular podcasts I listen to (Fresh Air, Stories of the Day, both on NPR).

There's a way around all that tfunk. Just crank up the tunes and shut it all out. Wait, that doesn't really work. Oh well.
