npr wake-up

every morning when the alarm clock wakes me up, it seems to be that point of the npr broadcast where they are profiling another dead soldier, another late twenties early thirties father of one or two who was disillusioned with a war that was supposedly over almost three years ago, but felt obligated to the others in the group. it's always a situation where they have come home, had the choice to stay home, but decided to go back. i cannot comprehend these decisions.

this is what i seem to hear every morning when i wake up.

i guess that politicians wake up earlier than i do. or wake up to the oldies station. i guess if i were them - the less news the better.
