Just When the Devil Is @ Your Door

No shit there's a lot of grim news out there. Liars and greed and our cold sewn seeds makes you want to run it all straight down or climb a clock tower. How do we rub salve on all these psychotic lesions, how do we tamp down the bezerk? Hey, occasionally good news blasts through. Like this story. Made my week and the week has just started. Drink deep and teach the children well, you lazy fools.
