London

First London is elated by news that they got the Olympics.

Then London is devestated by the bombings.

I went to a Blue Jays game last night. They had a moment of silence for London, with an image of Big Ben up on the Jumbotron. I'm beginning to miss London a little when it comes to certain things. On certain days when I'd like to cruise along the Thames, and maybe pick up a calcium stone or two if the tide has receded sufficiently. Seeing old Big Ben--a common sight from Waterloo Bridge across which I travelled quite a bit on my walk back home--makes you a little nostalgic.

Damn, London, don't stop kicking ass.
