German Red Cross:
And I loved that little game you have called "crying lightning"
(I'm addicted to this song)
Play with me:
Noun crying - the process of shedding tears (usually accompanied by sobs or other inarticulate sounds)
...I know you have bad days just like I do. But that's not an excuse for disobeying mommy and daddy. There are consequences to your actions and that's something you need to learn.
It breaks my heart to see you this way, but one day you will understand that it's for your own good, that it will help mold you into a better person.
We love you, always. Even on your very, very bad days... :-)
"Your past-times consisted of the strange
And twisted and deranged
And I love that little game you had called
Crying lightning"
- Arctic Monkeys
the title? the lyrics? they've got nothing to do with this photo.
however, it's been stuck in my head for weeks now, particularly that one refrain.

The little boy was standing when the train suddenly slowed down. After falling down, he tried to contain his tears as much as he could, until we give him some candies.
Milan Cathedral, day 6 of our Cosmos tour, October 5, 2012. We arrived late in the afternoon so didn't see all I wanted to see as we left very early the next morning. So not many good shots as it was too late in the day!
Milan Cathedral (Italian: Duomo di Milano; Lombard: Domm de Milan) is the cathedral church of Milan, Italy. Dedicated to Santa Maria Nascente (Saint Mary Nascent), it is the seat of the Archbishop of Milan, currently Cardinal Angelo Scola.
The Gothic cathedral took nearly six centuries to complete. It is the fifth largest cathedral in the world and the largest in the Italian state territory.
Milan's layout, with streets either radiating from the Duomo or circling it, reveals that the Duomo occupies what was the most central site in Roman Mediolanum, that of the public basilica facing the forum. Saint Ambrose's 'New Basilica' was built on this site at the beginning of the 5th century, with an adjoining basilica added in 836. The old baptistery (Battistero Paleocristiano, constructed in 335) still can be visited under the Milan Cathedral, it is one of the oldest Christian buildings in Europe. When a fire damaged the cathedral and basilica in 1075, they were later rebuilt as the Duomo.
The cathedral was built over several hundred years in a number of contrasting styles and the quality of the workmanship varies markedly. Reactions to it have ranged from admiration to disfavour. The Guida d’Italia: Milano 1998 points out that the early Romantics tended to praise it in “the first intense enthusiasms for Gothic.” As the Gothic Revival brought in a purer taste, condemnation was often equally intense.
John Ruskin commented acidly that the cathedral steals "from every style in the world: and every style spoiled. The cathedral is a mixture of Perpendicular with Flamboyant, the latter being peculiarly barbarous and angular, owing to its being engrafted, not on a pure, but a very early penetrative Gothic … The rest of the architecture among which this curious Flamboyant is set is a Perpendicular with horizontal bars across: and with the most detestable crocketing, utterly vile. Not a ray of invention in a single form… Finally the statues all over are of the worst possible common stonemasons’ yard species, and look pinned on for show. The only redeeming character about the whole being the frequent use of the sharp gable … which gives lightness, and the crowding of the spiry pinnacles into the sky.” . The plastered ceiling painted to imitate elaborate tracery carved in stone particularly aroused his contempt as a “gross degradation”.
While appreciating the force of Ruskin’s criticisms, Henry James was more appreciative: “A structure not supremely interesting, not logical, not … commandingly beautiful, but grandly curious and superbly rich. … If it had no other distinction it would still have that of impressive, immeasurable achievement … a supreme embodiment of vigorous effort.”

don't know what happened but suddenly the little girl came running crying and looking in her eyes she looked also very mad
Probably best seen from a different angle, she doesn't look much like she's crying from this side. Or a lady.
Good sea stacks out there, and way over to the left, there's rumor of another arch. We'd go looking.
