I agree. Still have my doubts about Van Hecke.

- Kurt Vonnegut Old quote but still very true

"America is the wealthiest nation on Earth, but its people are mainly poor, and poor Americans are urged to hate themselves. To quote the American humorist Kin Hubbard, 'It ain't no disgrace to be poor, but it might as well be.' It is in fact a crime for an American to be poor, even though America is a nation of poor. Every other nation has folk traditions of men who were poor but extremely wise and virtuous, and therefore more estimable than anyone with power and gold. No such tales are told by the American poor. They mock themselves and glorify their betters. The meanest eating or drinking establishment, owned by a man who is himself poor, is very likely to have a sign on its wall asking this cruel question: 'if you're so smart, why ain't you rich?' There will also be an American flag no larger than a child's hand - glued to a lollipop stick and flying from the cash register.
Americans, like human beings everywhere, believe many things that are obviously untrue. Their most destructive untruth is that it is very easy for any American to make money. They will not acknowledge how in fact hard money is to come by, and, therefore, those who have no money blame and blame and blame themselves. This inward blame has been a treasure for the rich and powerful, who have had to do less for their poor, publicly and privately, than any other ruling class since, say Napoleonic times. Many novelties have come from America. The most startling of these, a thing without precedent, is a mass of undignified poor. They do not love one another because they do not love themselves."
— Kurt Vonnegut, Slaughterhouse-Five

If you’re thinking that *this time* they will have to admit Trump’s depravity & their hideous folly in supporting him. Then I’m afraid you’re in for another nasty surprise…

It is for ground investigation. It is a bore hole rig. Could be testing for any number of reasons, checking makeup of ground, load bearing capacity for building, contamination etc

Always thought Deki is effective through the middle. Another reason why we need Solanke to regain his fitness and form.

Very true. I have to admit 2016 to 2019, was unnerving for any Spurs fan traumatised by relegation, used to counting to the 40 point total. 😄

Make love, not war. Or tea. Actually, make tea first. And would it kill you to put a bit of toast on? In summary, make tea, then toast, then love, then war. No, wait, not war. Don’t make war at all.

Pop music at the Proms has always been a disaster. It will never “get people into classical music”. The only thing that gets people into classical music is hearing a beautiful piece of classical music.
