I didn't resist showing you the cover of the New York Times of this Sunday.
I was a bit worried when I woke up this morning. Between the war in Iraq, the global warming, the terrorism, a dummy at the White House... I really had all the reasons to be in a bad mood. And no reason to think that my mood will improve in any way soon.
Thanks God! I had a look on the New York Times online: something I like to do the morning to get an overview of what happened during the night. That's the article I have found on the first page of one of the most influential newspaper in the world today. I guess they didn't find any news more important to talk about today.
I think I go back to sleep, no reason to be worried today: according to the NYT nothing serious happened in the world this night, this week, this year...
