If You Think You're Freaking Out.....

I know there's a lot of awful stuff going on right now.
The list is endless if you really ponder it:

No money
No jobs
No groceries
No roof over our head
The War
The Economy
British Petroleum
The Republican filibuster of UI
The building super who doesn't do his job
The crazy neighbors
Dirt and litter on the streets and sidewalks
Noise pollution
Air pollution
Heat and humidity
High utility bills
Cutbacks on bus routes
The threat of a subway/bus fare increase
Cigarettes going up to $10 a pack (what?!?!)
Increasing crime and violence
Unseasonable and unexpected weather patterns
Earthquakes, floods, tsunamis, mud slides, tornadoes, hurricanes, hail storms, astral anomalies, the wrath of God (not likely)

And yes, most of us feel like we have no control over any of this stuff.

But next time the urge to lose control starts to take over, remember the words of America's most famous philosopher:




What, me worry?

Alfred E. Neuman
