Last Friday, July 17, a pair of bombs ripped through two luxury hotels in the Indonesian capital, Jakarta, killing seven innocent people (plus the two suicide bombers).

" She's laughing now at the spectacle of a dog who is world-famous, at a house trafficked by thousands of strangers every day, at a life in which every stroll can become a headline. "I was like, Oh, darn, I should have gone around the other...
