What is wrong? (I)
A few weeks ago, when the Big Game jackpot was getting up into the hundreds of millions of dollars, there happened to be in some journals suggestions that the war in the Middle East was leading to Armageddon, with vague notions abounding that perhaps the End Times are upon us. The juxtaposition of these two ideas caused me to think, for a moment, “What a bummer that would be, to win $300 million in the lottery, five minutes before the Apocalypse.”
Almost everything that is wrong with me is pretty well summed up right there.
