Athens Classic Marathon

The classic marathon race this weekend comes in the most fitting moment... Race to vote the cuts... race to vote next year's budget, race after the unwillingness of Europe to give the bailout after the race to vote the cuts after the race to form a goverment... race to evade riot police and their brand new water thrower... and on top of all the primordial race to get to work on time, with public transportation on strike... It's not by chance that the Marathon was invented here...
