The power of the media
Last week, I covered the media handling of murder victim Gabby Petito. And now, the press, social media, John Walsh, and Dog the Bounty Hunter have entered the fray. It seems like everyone on the planet wants to find Brian Laundrie, who is suspected of killing Gabby Petito—the young woman he professed to love. If you look at Facebook, he seems to be everywhere except in police custody. People everywhere are posting pictures of various bald Caucasian men from different parts of the country.

He sighs, eagerly awaiting the jury to make their verdict. His head hurts. “I need a drink.”, he thinks to himself.

The mama's boy
Most of us can appreciate our mothers. In most instances, they are nurturing and kind. Whenever we need a good meal, a small loan or just someone to lend a sympathetic ear, we often seek our mothers. But the best mothers teach us how to live without them. They are like the mother bird that prepares her nestlings for their independence.
