Thoughtless for the day.

Maybe I wasn't properly awake when I heard Anne Atkins broadcast her Thought for the Day on Radio 4 this morning. She seemed to be irresponsibly (in these days of suicide bombers) commending the value of a glorious death to complement a virtuous life cut short. I've never been a fan of hers, I will admit it; she always sounds self-righteous and pompous. Who would want to hear the opinions of someone like that? Eh! What's that you say?
