Having been away from the world for so long, I decided to take my first two days of freedom to catch up on world news, what a bad idea that was.

It is a bad idea to absorb news of war and images of dead babies right after taking the bar.

It is like showing toddlers Barney being tortured and his head chopped off.

I feel like I woke up from a nightmare only to find my real world gone mad.

This morning I decided not to visit CNN.

But I did anyway.

Although, thinking I was smart, I jumped straight to the entertainment section.

I learned that Mel Gibson, one of the actors that I truly respect, is an anti-Semite.

And J.K. Rowling is hinting that Harry Potter will die.
