Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I'm finding myself surprisingly moved by John Hughes' death.

RE: John Hughes. Yep. Heart attack. Heard about it at work (one of the hazzards of working here I suppose).
