Viva Glasvegas!
I arrived in the UK this morning from France, to the news of the bombs found in London yesterday and then to hear the breaking news of the Glasgow attack this afternoon whilst driving north. Glasgow is the finest city in the UK and my former hometown. Glasgow is beautiful but also hard. You've got love a town where pathetic, muderous, wannabe-terrorists get floored by passer-bys before they can hurt anyone besides themselves. We'll see what details come out over the next few days, but immediate reactions are emotional not intellectual - Viva Glasvegas.
