A Hard News Day

October 2, 2017 was one bad news day.  The Las Vegas massacre is unfathomable.  God bless all those killed or wounded, their loved ones, and those who attended and survived but who will be traumatized by the event forever.  We all stand with you united in love for our fellow humans, and opposed to unspeakable terror and evil. 

After trying to digest the undigestable, along comes news that Tom Petty suffered a massive coronary and died.  He was only 66.  I just saw TP in July and wrote up a review of the show and my thoughts on his career.  I won't restate that here.  Suffice to say, the world is worse off today as one of the world's best rock musicians no longer walks among us.  RIP, my man.
