Pick up a newspaper, read the news online, listen to the radio or watch TV and the fact that we’re all not slitting our wrists on a daily basis is simply a manifestation of the innate will to survive.  The uncertainty of the economy, the fact that Donald Trump of the surreal combover is considering running for president of the United States and the fact that Rob Ford is a serious candidate for mayor of the big smoke is enough to create a run on valium at the drugstore and vodka at the LCBO
