1)And I (foolish Yank that I am) thought The UK guys (at least Frank)
were 'refreshingly direct"!

2)Yeah, it's not been a good week for much of the world.  Even the (fill
in your nationality of choice) Islamic citizens and Middle Eastern
descent type have had to rebound from reported 'hate' crimes like
attempts to firebomb a mosque in Australia (per BBC), a death threat to
the local Islamic elementary school (I am ashamed of our crazies
sometimes more then others), and a Sikh shot while working in their
store
(I think here is USA but I forgot to print the article I was scanning at
work).	Hatred and fear are so easy to stir and so hard to control. 
Some
of the things I usually complain about don't seem so important this
week.

3)Well, we could change it to Gravity Zero games... Only kidding!
