I did pop uptown but that was mainly for a poop dropoff. Okay, that needs a little explanation, doesn't it? I went to see my doctor on Wednesday and visited Lifelabs yesterday afternoon. I had a routine blood test and ECG. I was also due for routine colon cancer screening. So yesterday, I took my small, brown paper bag containing the stool sample kit. That is what I returned today. Jay and I bought only three apples at the uptown Walmart.
In addition, we watched as Sri Lanka apparently rid itself of the Rajapaksa family political dynasty. Against odds, it seemed a grassroots movement was able to up-end a two-decade, ruthless consolidation of power! They couldn't have possibly proven to be more inept and corrupt. There is seldom international reporting about the island. It's a shame the current TV news sound bites mainly show a house set afire and thugs in a swimming pool. Most of what passes as journalism today consists of whichever 30-second video clip appears most dramatic.
