Unsettling news of the day

Bear attacks are seemingly skyrocketing.  Seven people mauled nation wide in the past week.  The bruins must be irritable for some reason.

Meanwhile, in New Jersey, a prosperous state as states go, there is the following worrisome statistic:

  "According to the US census Bureau, at least 1 in 4 N.J. adults, ages 18-31 live at home and 42% are 24 or older. Experts call it an "epidemic" of millennials leaching off their parents, but does a bad economy and student loan debt crisis justify the situation?"

I say it's a combination of the student loans, and the culture infantilizing the younger generation.  Or, just maybe it's a fear of bear attacks.
