Dear Germany, Finland, & Austria,

Thanks for taking the heat off of America.   You have been upping the crazy recently.  Sure, we have school shootings, but you have been kicking it old school.  Which suits you, since you are America Old School.  First you had your own school shooting, Finland.  Then you, Austria, had the second kids raised in an incest cellar episode.  The story doesn’t even make sense–there’s about eight parts of the story that seem impossible (who doesn’t go in their cellar for 22 years?).  And it’s the second time it happened there!  Is Flowers in the Attic available in German translation?  Because I bet it would be selling like hotcakes right now.

And then today, frozen babies found by their siblings in Germany.  What is going on Europe?   Is the crazy tied to the Euro to dollar ratio and it’s finally swung around to you in a big way?  Or are you just so bored with the American political news you had to step it up?  I mean the rest of the world is trying with volcano eruptions and Earthquakes in the Midwestern US, and the crazy fundie mormons, but kudos, Europe.  Way to school us.

All my love,

~J
