You have to admit, even though we strive for good news, it doesn't exactly
appeal to the average American's inflated sense of urgency. The Enquirer
would never sell this:

EVERYTHING PERFECTLY OKAY

or

ANOTHER GOOD DAY; STREAK CONTINUES FOR 7,450TH DAY

Nice thought, but sadly, it doesn't seem to sell newspapers...
