Am reading the updates on the earthquake in Christchurch, NZ and the uprising in Libya. Is it just me, or are there more natural disasters now? And I know the Middle East is always a powder keg, but it does seem more explosive than ever. I wonder if this is truly more unrest and distruction than before, or if it's just that with the internet, the size of the world has shrunk.

It makes me think of the Eddie Izzard bit:

"In world news today, three British people skinned their knees. Loads of other people died, but we don't know 'em, so who gives a shit!"

Now with twitter and blogging, we know those other people, and we do give a shit.

In other news, today I have been watching The Tudors, season 2, and working. No holiday for me!
