Sad.

A friend of ours left here today to travel to the RAF transport base in Oxfordshire to claim the body of his son, killed in Afghanistan.
No parent should have to make such a sad trip.

Some things never change.
Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed.
