I was 16 and shocked. Thinking this would never happen, but it did. Staggered by the possibilities of the future.

And I still am. Except for the 16 thing.

I saw it on Al Jazeera. Turner got rid of CNN and Cartoon Network, and replaced CNN with MSNBC, which is now on two channels, and added Al Jazeera. In East Texas!! Excuse me while I laugh.

They are a good network. Al Jazeera, RT(from Russia) and Chinese News give me stories our domestic media won't touch, like the prison-industrial complex, gun violence and other stuff.
