A little disheartening...the Buddhist-Muslim violence in Myanmar. If anything religious, I think of myself as Buddhist, and when I read about a Buddhist monk running around with a machete, or the Muslim crazies, yadayada, well... It was "sparked by an argument between a Buddhist couple and the Muslim owners of a gold shop". Thinking back to the Inquisition of the Middle Ages, and on and on, history?...
Every once in awhile, when I'm driving, I put on an Anne Murray's "A Little Good News"

Just a few of the lyrics:
There's a local paper rolled up in a rubber band
One more sad story's one more than I can stand
Just once how I'd like to see the headline say
"Not much to print today, can't find nothin' bad to say", because
Nobody robbed a liquor store on the lower part of town
Nobody OD'ed, nobody burned a single buildin' down
Nobody fired a shot in anger, nobody had to die in vain
We sure could use a little good news today
