Guardian: It's OK to smoke dope, England fans told

Portuguese police officers will turn a blind eye to England supporters who openly smoke cannabis during Euro 2004, having decided that a stoned crowd is easier to control than a drunk one.

Ha ha ha. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. Hoo hoo hoo-ha. No, don't, ha ha ha ha. Heehee. Hee he he he. Stop it! No, ha ha ha ha ha.

Flash dancers

At 6.58pm precisely, dozens of individuals dotted around the concourse at Victoria station, each wearing headphones, begin to dance. Lost in their private musical world, they all bop happily on the spot to their heart's content. Welcome to the world of mobile clubbing, the latest underground, and somewhat surreal, movement taking hold in London.[Via TechDirt] and [Engadget]

I think there's something sad about this — loneliness, maybe? Tube stations in London are where nobody looks at each other. As a country boy, I want to say hello to everyone. Are these mob dancers coming together because they too are lonely and to express that loneliness in a crowd of lonely people?

Art. Means different things to different people.
