@maxdancona,
Nice excuse. I don't see friends and families from other countries making a day out of a
small tragedy compared to other things in life.
Frankly, if friends and families really cared about each other, they would change this world - destroy politics; think of the people rather than material, and choose mind over money; family over luxury and so on.
Want to tell me another excuse? Popular to contrary belief, pockets can only run so deep compared to the wisdom of a tired man.
