The stillness and deafening silence seem to have descended everywhere. Is it the effect of that extraordinarily hot summer month? Or are we all waiting to get ready when they are ready to tell us \u201cget ready\u201d for nukes from NK?<\/p>\n
Is there an ominous message in this? I can\u2019t pin it down but the scary beat goes on something of a towering shadow\u2014from the figment of our imagination\u2014lurking up north.<\/p>\n
