My radio told me some unsettling things this morning as I was applying anti-fungal spray to my feet. It said that there were people in Madrid who were critical of the actions of the "American Right" with respect to Terri Schiavo's final days. I just about puked. How dare those dark little train haters judge us! We are fully capable of judging ourselves, thank you very much. Sometimes. Besides, everyone knows that Spaniards hate life, foster a culture of death, and are terrible, terrible people besides. Bugger off, Spain.
