A Sad Anniversary

Even though the Berlin Wall fell twenty years ago, there is still a divided capital in Europe.

Today marks the 35th anniversary of the Turkish Invasion of Cyprus. You're not going to hear a word about it today in the American media, but you know, we're kind of used to that by now. We're used to having to explain the details of a complex situation to each person we meet, so today is no different.



As each year goes by, it just becomes harder and harder to believe that justice will ultimately be served and Cyprus will be reunited in a fair manner. It's encouraging that there continue to be discussions between both sides, but in the end I can't imagine an agreement ever being reached.

Now that you have been informed, go about your business.

Yeah, news here is going on about Sarah Palin and Michael Jackson.

Will these people die already?!
