Things fall apart; the center cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity. ~ William Butler Yeats

My experience with Google Maps while at sea is interesting, to say the least. Currently it says I'm three blocks north of the Circle K in Asgardstrand.

Leaving this morning, and if I'm smart I'll stay off the news sites for fourteen days.
