People

 

 People are, to my mind, very much overrated!

The Light at The End of The Tunnel

 Beware that the light at the end of the tunnel is not an oncoming train!

Happy Thanksgiving

  Happy Thanksgiving to my American chums!

Could vs Should

People invariably conflate "could" with "should".

They are wrong!

The Certainty of Conviction Paradox

 Beware those who never doubt the certainty of their own convictions!

IRONY KLAXON - The Freedom Pass

 

The so called "Freedom Pass" is a contradiction in terms. 

Any state that requires you to have a pass in order for you to live your life freely, is not a free state!

Kimchi Top Tip

 

When you find some Kimchi that has attached itself to your jumper when you were scoffing it earlier in the day, don't throw it away eat it.

Lightning Bolts

Whilst lightning bolts can illuminate the very darkest corners of a room, their effect is transitory!

The Truth

 

Beware those who claim to have discovered the truth.

Their version of the truth may not be your version of the truth!

Happy Friday The 13th 2020!

Don't Fall For The Banks' Bullshit!

 

Certain banks and financial institutions are proposing that those who work from home after the pandemic should pay more tax, in order to support those who have to travel to the office.

Altruistic?

BOLLOCKS!

These institutions are not thinking of others, but merely themselves. 

For you see dear reader, they have large sums of money tied up in commercial property investments. 

Unless those properties are occupied they lose a fortune. Therefore from the banks' perspective the more people who are taxed back to offices, the better

Question For Handcock (aka Dr Mengele)

How To Escape From Painting Yourself Into a Corner

 

People become terribly stressed when they realise that they have painted themselves into a corner.

They have no need to be stressed, for the solution is simple. Just walk back across the painted area, and paint over the footprints.

Simples!

The "Special" Relationship Debunked

 

Every time there is a change of President in the USA, the media and certain politicians/political commentators wax lyrical about the so called "special" relationship and fret whether it will continue under whoever is the new President.

Whilst personal chemistry (or lack of it) between the President and the Prime Minister can be a help or hindrance to the optics of the interactions between the USA and UK, there has never been a "special" relationship in the sense that the media and politicians would like to have us believe.

The USA and UK, because of their shared heritage, history and economic/security ties will continue to work together no matter who is President or Prime Minister. However, never be under any illusion that the UK will be treated "specially", the USA always acts in what it perceives to be its own best interests!

Die Alten Tage - Presidential Elections

I am so old that I remember a time when a losing Presidential candidate would graciously concede defeat, and call the winner to congratulate him!

Remember, Remember..
