    I don't feel sorry for him at all. He should have been more aware and/or had an assistant who was on top of the it.

    But we all know this kind of stuff happens pretty much on a daily basis. Least he is going out in style.

    I do feel a lot of sympathy for him, to be honest. He gaffed, but so do all politicians, and at least he had the guts to stand up and completely admit that he was wrong, rather than attempt to justify it. In particular, he kicked off the final debate apologising for it. I'm glad that he's capable of being so humble when he was wrong, something you wouldn't see from Cameron or Clegg.

    Brown's smile has a habit of appearing at some strange moments, though.

    I finally finished my CNN Student News for the week!! :D

    It's such a relief to get that done and off my schedule! :)

    And I finished my 4th scarf for a friend and am starting one for my mom, after that I have one more for a friend and then I can take a break, unless more people ask for scarves.

    It's not a scarf, it's a cravat, lol. It's always in season, especially if you're in England, or on American Idol -

    People are actually talking! :rolleyes:

    If anyone wishes to know, my ear still is blocked, so I'm partially deaf and it's very annoying. I've tried lots of different stuff but it's not helping. :(

    Thanks. :) I don't think it's anything too serious but my dad didn't exactly cheer my up by telling me about something similar he's had- which lasted about 4 weeks. :rolleyes:

    But not as bad as having it forever.

    Afternoon, all.

    I was in downtown Seattle earlier today and saw a group of kids, looked like a 6th or 7th grade class, walking along, chattering and happy and goofy. I wish I could go back to middle school. Life was so much easier then.

    I was up till three in the morning watching episodes of Doctor Who from the Tenth Doctor's era. He's still my favourite, but I think that Matt Smith is different in a very good way. :)

    I think I'm back for now. I needed some time away to concentrate on my studying and personal life.

    I'm now a certified IT technician, but very lonely and heartbroken after a small...crisis. I've gotten over feeling sorry for myself though, it was hard to stay away from here for long, the company here is heartwarming.

    I must dig down deep into my nerd roots to find strength and solace. I shall begin by watching the entire Stargate SG1 series starting from season 1. It should take me a decade to get all the way to Atlantis.:cool:

    edit: if anyone's wondering why my avatar is green, it's not your eyes or your screen going bad.
