I watched for...I did not think that way even once. I watched for much of the day and at least the news cycle had nothing else so consequential on CNN and MSNBC. The background on those stations was of course the body count. I am grateful the soccer crowd did not implode on itself. I am also grateful, my friend, that you are rarely in Paris, so I did not worry for you.<br /><br />And I tell the truth here. It is not fear but rage that fuels my heart in this matter.
