I'm terribly shocked by this accident:
Bus ungherese contro un pilone su A4, prende fuoco: 16 morti a Verona - Repubblica.it

14-18 year old kids, who wouldn't find that shocking.

 

[Gyuri]

You may think you know what I feel in my never-healing wounds now.
As if picking it with hot iron.

 

[Gyuri]

Yes, these kind of accidents are always shattering, they were happy kids!
I remember when my son was in Scotland, with a bus.
I was in fear, while he not arrived home.

 

[Gyuri]

I know the feeling when they awaken you with it at night, your son died!

I remember when my son was in Scotland, with a bus.

Same story here when my kid went on a school trip to Paris, likely how any (normal) parent responds.

I crawled out the window of my parents' home at age 6, to sit in the rain gutter at ~30ft height. Carried the weirdest scar collection by age 12, from tip to toe. Even got scars in both armpits from playing Tarzan on 2 ropes, tied high-up between trees, a jungle experiment that didn't go quite as anticipated.

Now that I think of it, my dad often mentioned I gave him sleepless nights. One time I went abroad on holiday on my own, when I returned home my family was about to go to the cops because they hadn't heard anything from me in close to two months time.

Praise be my son is a boring stiff behind a game computer.

 

[Gyuri]

Which one to choose?

Here's to me, Gyuri.

I thought that previous years were bad, but I just hope that 2017 will be better, even though it doesn't look promising. I feel sorry for all innocent souls, gone in a flash, for nothing. Me, right now I am sitting in a hospital beside my mother. What started as a seasonal flu, went out of control whithin just a few days, with complications. Now I just hope for the best. Scary it is...

 

[Gyuri]

I wish my very best wishes to your mother!

So you have bought a ticket from Virgin Galactic.
It must make thee to be sad.
You fooled.
For VSS Enterprise it would take about 14400000 years to overcome this distance, assuming a solid 50Km/sec velocity.

What larger anchor in life than your parents.

Fingers crossed (downside of cutting parts off is becoming less easy to cross) for a positive outcome.

Couple of brewskies and any bum can be spaced out, including all those wonderful stars in the sky (says who they're traffic lights)

Row, Row, row your Boat
Gently down the Stream
Belts Off, trousers Down
Isn't Life a Scream !
