The bombs just keep on coming. More than you can count. Deafening explosions abound, one after the next. Chaos rains down from missiles and constant shelling, not to mention “incoming” from land and sea. Infrastructure decimated by the hour; homes leveled, possessions destroyed or abandoned; lives lost. Indiscriminate killing is the new norm: citizens, all—men, women, children.

People that don’t regularly read this column may not realize that the famous movie star, Cheeta is dead. His best friend and caregiver hauled this 140-pound dead Chimp around on a cart so the other primates he lived with could say goodbye. Cheeta spent his last years at a roadside celebrity zoo near Tarpon Springs, Florida. Cheeta was later cremated, and his remains placed in an attractive burial box for his funeral. Over 60 people attended the old Tarzan movie chimps’ funeral. Cheeta was 80 years old.
