Dark mood — need jokes and good news

I’m feeling demoralized today.  I think the news is getting to me — or maybe it’s just the inevitable return to earth after the giddy pleasures of Fleet Week.  Regardless, I could use some cheering up.

I started the work of cheering myself up with a Spengler article pointing out that, propaganda aside, the “downtrodden” Palestinians are doing exceptionally well compared to their Muslim compatriots in surrounding Muslim lands.

Do you have any contributions to offset this emotional ennui?
