Tom's Angry

Me? I'm just stunned. Stunned and awed by this man's compassion and skill with the English language. Stunned that 786,432 dots of light can cause me to feel, well, kind of scared. I salute you, Tom. You and all the boys and girls in green uniforms.

I know it's not in the same league, but I had a friend (to be honest, a fellow cadet in the Air Training Corps squadron I was in when I was a teenager) die from inhaling butane. Even though I hardly knew her and hardly spoke to her, it's left a lasting impression. A stupid, stupid waste.
