    This young generation should take some notes from the elders. Be more proud and a bit less radical!

      One of the too-few times they had to pay Pall-Bearers it seems.
      I’d say ‘the young’ might be learning … blowing yourself up may have some kind of dignity, but taking a pile of others, and a favourite restaurant, with you is not really appreciated.
      In fact, ‘the youth’ may realize that being a waiter/waitress in a restaurant, or working in a hotel, IS a viable occupation to put some food on a table – or to gain money for higher education.
      When an idiot blows it up – no work, no food. And THAT IS an education. 😉
