Ostriches

Hm. Got our heads stuck in the sand again. Highly focused on our own problems.

How many of you knew before today that there's been a week of riots in Paris?

I knew, but I've been listening to and reading the BBC.

CBS news has covered it slighty.

I've known about it since the first night of rioting. It's been getting regular coverage in Google news and the BBC world news.

Between a cold and a new job, I've had my head up my ass all week.

Wow. No, I hadn't heard... but as you say I've been kind of preoccupied.

The GM feels good root beer is a fine and dandy thing, so yes :)

There've been blurbs in the Metro for the past three days or so.
