One Year Ago

I was trying to avoid a mention of Hurricane Katrina: One Year Later because I have a terrible headache. But, that damn Anderson Cooper is on and who can resist? I can’t believe it’s been a year. I have a lot more questions than I ever saw any answers to on how the promises [...]

Almost Infamous

Remember all the hubbub about John Mark Karr? The self-confessed killer of JonBenet Ramsey? Remember how all the news channels made a big deal about stupid little meaningless nothings, like the fact that he rode in business class from Thailand to the U.S.? Remember that?
