alright, I'm paranoid.

but stuff pops up to CONFIRM my delusions &--well, I just dunno WHAT to think.....

for instance, my initial rection on hearing about the whole Jessica Lynch dramatic rescue was, "You GOTTA be fucking kidding me."
NOT that I wasn't happy & all that she was safe, & that I wasn't sad for her compadres, or didn't feel for her family in the deliciously coincidental town of Palestine...but....

anyway theBBC , the Guardian & The Toronto Star carried these articles in the past week or so, & NOBODY's touching it here in the states (as far as the Mass Media goes)....

Question: Are there certain stories that should be, like, LEFT ALONE? Are we better off with the polite fiction, with the feel-good sham?

-----------
ten-minute-later edit:

checked out some of the boards for the first time in a while & discovered that this has been already covered....

My favorite line from the Toronto Star article:
"Maybe this was a movie after all"

Oh, and now for something completely different, I was intrigued by the saying "library sale". Is it something like a garage sale, only it's in front of a library instead of being in front of a garage?
