Waking from a coma

Do you ever wonder what someone who awoke from a coma after ten years would think about the world today? I do.
Let's see, little Katie Holmes from Dawson's Creek is having 80s heartthrob Tom Cruise's baby. The Terminator is the Republican governor of California and wrestler Jesse Ventura is a politician! Holy cow.
Just think, to wake from a long slumber and read the headlines today: We're at war in Iraq, the World Trade Center is gone and you can't even take nail clippers on a plane.
Peter Jennings passed away, Dan Rather retired after a messy media faux pas and Katie Couric is going to be the first woman evening news anchor.
Or what about celeb gossip? Liza Minnelli married a gay guy, Liza Minnelli divorced said gay man. Friends is off the air. Brad and Jennifer broke up and now Brad is part of Bradgelina. Britney Spears went white trash and married a wannabe rapper and had a baby. Martha Stewart went to prison then got out and had a flop reality show--and Donald Trump has a reality show too. Pretty much everybody has a reality show, in fact they've taken over the air waves.
The thought of waking up to such crazy news and changes in the world, may just make you want to fall back asleep for just a bit longer, as if it were just a bad dream.
Just some food for thought.
