Damn...! It's REALLY hard to keep the ol' chin up...!

the never-ending oil spill steadily killing the entire caribbean ecosystem, israel intent on exterminating the palestinians by insuring they starve to death, predator drone attacks murdering innocent civilians in afghanistan and pakistan and, on the home scene, continuously accelerating foreclosures, jobs being erased by the thousands... let's all keep a stiff upper lip, eh...? tomorrow's another day...

ri-i-i-ight...
