pseydtonneAll I wanted to do was take a few minutes from my tiring day. I had read a satire and wanted to find the real story about Eric Cantor trying to shoot down FEMA funding in the middle of a massive tornado. I opened Google News and there they were: eight versions of Jared Lee Loughner's mug shot.
I beg of you not to look.
I thought we could be done with him. Perhaps we will be -- he is unfit to serve trial and being sent to Missouri. If they hurry, the plane could get caught in a tornado and the pilot will be a national hero. Then the news cycle would be complete.
That fatheaded version of Travis Bickle meeting Charles Krautmeyer is so creepy. Seeing a whole bunch of them is like some Andy Warhol piece: here is the same pic cropped and tinted, here is a side shot, here is a zoom on his lack of eyebrows, learn the iconography of celebrity...
Seeing that puts me off looking at the news for a while. I may as well go back to work, no matter how tapped I feel.
