This really isn't the sort of thing to joke about, and nothing we've yet read gives any information on what caused it, and, even if it is a terroristic sort of bombing, the timing could well be entirely coincidental. But at least six blasts hit London's subway system and a bus today, a day after the city was chosen for the 2012 Olympics. And the headlines immediately reminded us why we're so very glad the Olympics aren't coming here.

Update: Oy. Now there's at least two40 dead and more than 90160 injured. This is rapidly becoming much less funny — and it wasn't funny in the first place.
