Thanks, I’m Good

Not sure what it says about us a country or a culture that, with the leader of one nation negotiating peace on the Korean peninsula with an infantile narcissist (and btw, the North Korean media can use the exact same headline), our news feeds are all abuzz with reports of Sonic’s Pickle Juice Slush.  

In the grand scheme of things, you’d think it was a simple choice between coverage of an effort at mitigation of tensions that stretch back to close to seventy years or wall to wall reporting on a semi-frozen fast food item that (from what I’ve read) could prove to be so sour one sip could cause your underwear to give you a wedgie. But no….nothing is ever as it seems

In short, this is the Information age’s equivalent of a cat meme. Worldwide, real-time and totally live. Thank goodness we don't have scratch and sniff internet. Yet.  And then we wonder if there’s intelligent life “out there” why they don’t visit.
