London

When London successfully bid for the rights to host the 2012 Olympics, no one in my MSN contact list congratulated her, nor did anyone even acknowledge their victory, except for me.

When the six explosions took place after the announcement of the results, I witnessed a quick reflex by the people in my contacts to change their nicknames to report on this tragedy, complete with mockery and sacarsm.

It says a lot about our generation, doesn't it?
