Crises Near and Far

I’m in front of the teevee in tbbs World HQ, watching coverage of the Minneapolis bridge collapse. MSNBC’s coverage of the incident was reminiscent of old-time reporting, i.e., just the facts. Interviews with eyewitnesses, photos from local media outlets, and a noticeable lack of talking heads, experts, and pontificators. Just the news; tragic, but news.

Meanwhile, in the mid-level of our place, SWMBO is ministering to a neighbor lady, recently divorced, extremely depressed, who expressed suicidal tendencies when I answered the door just a few minutes ago.

This evening could go on a while longer.
