What a great day, what great weather! But for all that, the news was unavoidable: it was just as I went down the street outside of On Off Digital World, located more or less in the heart of Manhattan, and there it was, the news about Osama bin Laden being dead, broadcast by the televisions in the store’s window display. And truth to tell, “it’s all good.”. It’s OBL all day, every day this week. And it’s an interesting contrast, all this dramatic historic stuff in the midst of such a serene day. I can’t imagine a nicer day, really, what spring is supposed to be like, yet the news pervades my waking hours like nothing else.
