I'm cynical and that's me. I'm not saying I am right, or that he was wrong, we all react very very differently.

I know when I experienced the call to tell me when my first grand parent died: I was about 23? not much older than Tom and as cold and callous as I can be, I still couldn't have cracked a joke in the first 30minutes.

He is in a weird situation and place too.

You were 5 years older than me when I lost my Grandmother,I couldn't have cracked jokes either, I went for a very long walk on my own to a lot of the areas I had spent time with my Grandmother at

Also, Pyramid, I could never agree that you could be cold and callous,you are one of the really nicest and most honest people I've come across.
