I read in the European Wall Street Journal today that the Spanish elections have overthrown the liberal government and the Socialists have taken power. Aznar, that lying fascist pig, is out and the Socialists are in.
I also read that a bomb going off in the Madrid subway system killed over 200 people so far. i hope no one I know was killed.
My God. They're blaming ETA.
My people!
Well, not mine _specifically_, but the de la Rocha line has long been sympathetic to the brave and valiant freedom fighters of the ETA. I cannot believe that something so very pointless to the cause would be done by ETA.
Well, maybe not entirely pointless. Aznar's out of power now.
I think I have a new set of thoughts to divert me from the bleakness of my existance, at least for a little while. I wish I could call Alphonso to make sure he is all right, to get a better idea of what is happening from someone who would know about it from the inside. But I am not permitted to make phone calls - and I do not know Alphonso's current number. And Emma is overseas on business.
Damn.
