  1. This may be about Iran but it also sends a message to other world powers.
  2. As you well know it's not meant to be taken literally but if that's the best you can do....
  3. Three epithets I try to live by: 1. Live dangerously. “For believe me! — the secret for harvesting from existence the greatest fruitfulness and the greatest enjoyment is: to live dangerously! Build your cities on the slopes of Vesuvius! Send your ships into uncharted seas! Live at war with your peers and yourselves! Be robbers and conquerors as long as you cannot be rulers and possessors, you seekers of knowledge! Soon the age will be past when you could be content to live hidden in forests like shy deer! At long last the search for knowledge will reach out for its due: — it will want to rule and possess, and you with it!” - Friedrich Nietzsche, The Gay Science: (Gay meant something different in those days). 2. Part of the Serenity Prayer. “God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference…...” - Anon (disputed) and not that I believe in God. 3. And now the end is probably near (No not Sinatra)! Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light….. - Dylan Thomas
  4. Try a ticket to Switzerland - it's legal there.
  5. Seems like a sensible precaution to me whilst there is uncertainty around the issue.
  6. Maybe deport them to Ukraine would be more appropriate if found guilty
  7. OMG can we stop the left /right paradigm . Sometimes my views might be "left" sometimes "right". But what I want to be is a person who thinks for himself after looking at as much information as I can on a subject.
  8. Yes and No depending on the context and the source.
  9. Old saying - what's yours is mine - what's mine is mine!
