A rather sarcastic piece from Victor Davis Hanson:

We’ve All Metamorphosized to a Higher Plane

I can feel myself becoming a being of light...

Seriously, the sarcasm is on target. I watched the news tonight; despite the many things going on in the world, the main coverage was devoted to deceased celebrities. All the problems seem to have disappeared.
