p>A very good article on the 9/11 grief marathons. I thought for a
while that I was the only one who thought, “Enough already!” I was
in Oxford, England, the day Princess Diana died and people were
going about their important business, like an education (something
the princess was lacking) and barely noticed the nutty response in
London. What is this penchant for public displays of grief (the OWS
— Oprah Winfrey Syndrome)? Can’t we do things privately anymore
(and that would also include sex)? Wouldn’t it be nice if everyone
just minded their manners and played things a little closer to the
vest? Thanks for the good thoughts.
