Thanks, that was a good one. Not one of those trite "5 things that will change your life" lists. It's a really good list.

I used to be a total news junkie, now I don't even pay attention to that stuff anymore. Maybe it's just because I'm now more focused on my own issues and don't have time for that kind of distraction anymore. And it's not like my reading about it all the time is ever going to change any of it. But I can work on myself.
