Here we go again

I was too young to experience it but thanks to the events of the weekend, I get to relive what Belfast was like in the 70s all over again. If it was happening on the mainland, politicians and commentators would be calling for heads to roll. But because it's in Northern Ireland, no one really gives a shit. They never did.

You can find full coverage of what's going on over at Slugger O'Toole

It's the best blog. Period.

Read it in the newspaper, saw it on tv.

Didn't dare to ask you how bad it really was, but then saw a picture of an overturned and completely burnt out crane (?) in the newspaper today.

Thanks for the info.

Some days, I forget not to rely on the American media to provide me with all the information I need.

Your family all right?

Mum and dad live at the opposite end of the country, me and Robyn live away from the trouble spots. Thankfully.

That's good to hear. Y'all are in my thoughts.

In totally other news, can you please PLEASE smack people, o minor diety of the Whedonverse? I'm seeing people in reviews saying Jewel Staite is Joss' wife.

I've been thinking about you guys. I hope you, Robyn and your family are ok.

I don't know too much of what's going on, thanks for the link.

I saw some of the BBC coverage the other day.

It's very disturbing. I'm glad you both are safe.

Thanks for the link.
