Branden is Back

Branden was scheduled to fly from London to Oslo this morning. However, chaos ensued when the new terminal 5 opened at Heathrow yesterday, so shortly after midnight he received an e-mail notifying him that his 7:15am flight was cancelled until Monday! So we have him back for the weekend :)

The other front page news story today was in relation to the sentencing of two boys who murdered a girl and tried to kill her boyfriend because they were "goths." I was horrified to read that the parents of the killers joked and laughed in court about what they had done. It's not hard to guess who steered these two kids in the wrong direction.

As I scrolled through the online news headlines earlier, I noticed a seemingly related article in Time Magazine about Britain's Out-of-Control Kids. The story is so dead-on as to what life is like here.
