I was flipping around channels when Keith Olbermann said they'd be interviewing people with monkeypox from Dorchester WI, so I watched the story (I said, "DORCHESTER? I know where that is"), wondering if my hubby's relatives knew them--and then I realized of course they knew them. Dorchester is not that big. In fact, it's really tiny. Towards the end of the interview (you could hear the kid playing during the interview), I heard this thump, then the kid screaming & wailing. They pulled out to a wide shot & there was the resin lawn chair tipped over into the grass, the kid howling, mom leaping up to comfort the kid....and Olbermann gave periodic reports about the condition of the kid for the next half hour. I mean it's bad enough the kid's got monkeypox, but to total out on a lawn chair on cable news TV....and I can tell you that being on cable tv was the biggest thing to hit Dorchester since...well, EVER.
