Flashing blue lights

Fill my screen.

Where this time?

Not that it matters.

    The best way for the ordinary citizen to react is to stay normal , go to work , go to play . And don't let them disarray .

      I tried printing my own money but they frowned on it .

      Thought I share with you my initial reaction: I have several friends with migraine attacks that are accompanied by visual phenomena. Then I realized, dah, another bombing, shooting, etc. I heard today that there have been over 2500 separate terrorists events over the past few years. Love the power in these perfectly chosen words.

        It has reached the level of full scale war, has it not? And I can't help thinking just how difficult it is to win in a guerilla war, i.e., like Vietnam, or the American War Of Independence. I see this going on for a very long time, a 'gift' to the next generation. Thanks for your generous comment, Augustus.

        Such a sad reflection - such well chosen words.

        • Louis Gibbs

          Much appreciated, Michael!

          Just think of the message that came from the concert in Manchester on Saturday - Love will win.

          • Louis Gibbs

            I would dearly love to see that happen, Goldfinch. Doubt that I will live long enough.
