Fathers appear to be the topic of discussion right now; contemplative LJ posts, Father's Day this coming Sunday, and both House and The Bold And The Beautiful (come on - I'm unemployed) have depicted failed relationships between father and child in the past 24 hours. And I've been thinking a lot about fathers and family as my 30th birthday and marriage draw ever closer. Not without a touch of melancholy.
But I'm distracted from this topic by a news report on the television about a mass seal slaughter near Wilson's Prom (where the wedding is being held).
This is just despicable.
