Some consider the Nation’s Capital as “Fantasyland on the Potomac”. Other outsiders are “Fed Up” with the Federal City. It's better to consider D.C. as “the District of Calamity” (sic).

Las Vegas Massacre Prompts Faith
The Las Vegas Massacre at the Country Music festival near the Mandolay Bay hotel exposed evil in humanity as well as goodness of people. In the heat of the shooting and the aftermath, in which 58 people were killed and over 500 people injured, strangers helped one another to safety. There were many stories in which off duty law enforcement officers and former military selflessly sprang into action to help others and possibly lay down their lives for the safety of others.
When CNN was interviewing victims of the shooting, one of the attendees professed that the horrible experience jolted him from agnosticism to faith in God.
The humanity of how many responded to the terrible travesty and the faith which the adversity inspired is another instance of how God writes straight with crooked lines

R.I.P. Tom Petty
Rock legend Tom Petty died today after being found unconscious after suffering a massive heart attack at his home in Malibu, California. The 66 year old rock iconoclast was taken to the hospital and put on life support. However, since Petty showed no brain activity, it was decided to pull the plug.
Petty had been around the entertainment world for four decades. Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers were induced into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2002. Petty was also a successful solo artist as well as a member of the 1980s supergroup "The Traveling Wilburys". Petty also hosted a music channel on Sirius XM.
