Emails and their election impact

There’s more than enough chatter going on in the country about Hillary Clinton’s emails. Like Bernie Sanders said months ago, nobody wants to hear about these damn emails anymore. Even with the FBI re-opening the case in the wake of ex-congressman Anthony Weiner’s premature evacuation, voters seem to be over Clinton’s email fiasco. As FBI Director James B. Comey said, we agree that Clinton’s handling of the emails was irresponsible, but it was by no means illegal. Like Clinton, we’re confident her political enemies will, once again, be disappointed when the newest batch of emails really contains nothing controversial.

Solitude in a world filled with billions of people

This weekend, I had the pleasure to find that the band The Last Shadow Puppets covered a Leonard Cohen song titled “Is This What You Wanted.” This song talks about a breakup and how the separation has affected one of the two people. The part that immediately resonated with me was the verse that goes: “You defied your solitude/I came through alone.”
