Bloody Sunday.

lu: (Do you find me sadistic?)
I've just watched the evening news and found out the attacks in Rio by the organized crime are all over the internartional press. So, just in case anyone out there is worried, I am fine and so are all my friends. Around twenty people died in Rio, and the city is a bit chaotic right now, but I hope all will be well soon (before New Year's Eve).

I'm in São Paulo, so I don't know for certain all that is going on over there. I'll keep you posted of any news, though.

On a side note, Christmas was great, and now for New Year's Eve. *grins*

You like bowling, don't you, Montag?

If you don't want a man unhappy politically, don't give him two sides to a question to worry him; give him one. Better yet, give him none. If the government is inefficient, topheavy, and tax-mad, better it be all those than that people worry over it. Peace, Montag. Give the people contests they win by remembering the words to more popular songs or the names of state capitals or how much corn Iowa grew last year. Cram them full of noncombustible data, chock them so damned full of 'facts' they feel stuffed, but absolutely 'brilliant' with information. Then they'll feel like they're thinking, they'll get a sense of motion without moving. And they'll be happy, because facts of that sort don't change. Don't give them any slippery stuff like philosophy or sociology to tie things up with. That way lies melancholy.
