A Cure for Feelings of Doom


This story from the NY Times about a revived paper mill in the Adirondacks got my day off on a positive note.

One thing that keeps amazing me is how cheaply you can live if you move to paradise. Of course, the nearest cardiologist is probably 100+ miles away. But I'll bet you get treated like a real person in that 20-bed hospital.

Follow that up with this story in the Washington Post about how positively Obama's victory is being regarded around the world. I don't crave their approval, but the world is a safer place for Americans if people in other countries admire us than if they despise us.

Finally, read Digby's June 4 comments on the Clintons (titled Coda) at Hullabaloo. The future looks bright.
