The papers say that the huge pall of smoke that appeared over the city yesterday was half of Nose Hill burning! I'm not sure that it was the area where Charlie and I had been in the morning, but wow. Metre high wall of flames all along the perimeter.

... I'll let you in on a secret. Big people are exactly the same as little people. They're selfish, squabbling children whose motivations are jealousy and greed. No one becomes big when the hit adulthood. They just become better at hiding how small they are.
