Do you know what I find newsworthy today? <cricket-cricket> Do you hear that?……. <cricket-cricket-cricket>   I read a LOT of news sites and blogs on a daily basis, and as busy as the “wires” were yesterday, today they are eerily quiet.  I’m finding very little to bring you guys in the noonish edition!  This could be a foreboding calm before a storm.  Market crash? Major strike in one of the many nations verging on war? I don’t like it!  I’m a retired nurse, and all nurses know that when things get quiet like this, it is because something is fixing to hit the fan.  Guess we’ll know soon enough.

Here are a few stories and opinion pieces:
