Thanks!
Well, the latest news headline from MSNBC is "Protesters riot after Kenya cabinet announcement"
Looks like the violence will continue there.

Did you think it was going to suddenly stop for some reason?
Please enlighten us.

I was just trying to get us back on topic... No, I didn't think it would magically stop.

If I may offer a friendly suggestion: don't worry about trying to keep "on topic". Thread drift is allowed here, and I love it. It throws up some amazing links. There's a thread about avocados in which we ended up discussing drinking bhong water and the nature of Aliantha's arse.

Nope. It wouldn't be fair of me to do that...especially for those of you who might happen to be eating at the time.
