Hi Gustave, nice to see how well you, CMYK and TD are mixing up all the time. Honestly: didn't I help you to keep them both sticking until they have heard enough to make their own picture of gains and losses of communicating seriously with you? I did it just for the sake of it, now I won't interfere as long as I haven't got any issue of my own...
I knew you would find out about this passage, it was part of the message for you... but how had Eddie Blinker correctly explained to you: during the last 600 years German-Turkish relationships were always friendly, with only one exception of only a short period.
However this should be seen merely as a matter of fact, a fact that may make life for Turks in Germany and Germans in Turkey easier, but to say the truth, in the era of national states, the good relations between Germany and Turkey indicated, among other things, the extreme social conservativity of Germany - not a thing I am exceptionally proud of.
This information and the way he passed it makes Eddie quite a probable candidate for being German.
I don't take the Rice passage as serious as you do, I think in this case Turkey is good merely for rhetoric reasons - and nothing else. 'Turkey' is used like a 'joker' in a card game, because not much is known about the conditions there by the average listener. It is exotic, it is unknown, it seems to present a chance to the listener, and the speaker shows she knows the way to evaluate the chance once she has her way. In this way the mentioning creates hope. Creating hope, and linking it to herself, is the best thing an opposition politician who soonly wants to become a government politician can do. In a way I would like C.Rice as a foreign secretary, but maybe she would be more suited for Germany than for the U.S. I would vote for her then.
I'm very disappointed that you didn't tell the truth to Colleen about profiles with and without additional personal information. Those that feature "real life names" and a high load of personal details are the synthetic ones, that were made up by an extremely "intelligent" software that automatically and context-sensitively produces thread postings that sound as reasonable as Frederic's, Charles', and some others. Those who use short acronym aliases and only reluctantly pass on personal information are the real life persons ! Only real life persons have an interest in keeping some anonymity.
Or what is your idea? Somehow I have the feeling that you are a real life person in spite of all the information in your profile and the job information you recently passed in this thread. Also many of your postings lead to giving links to other information - a machine was likely to use this strategy, but not if it was trying to hide the artificiality of its' postings.
However, if you are a 'part time cabbie' and if you once drove Romano P., why shouldn't I assume that in reality you are a bodyguard in service of the EU commision and in charge of R.P. at the moment? Actually that would make you an ideal candidate for being a secret agent who spends a lot of time in finding out about the public opinion in other states while the object of guarding is in relatively safe places...
Regards, have a nive week-end with a lot of fares and tips, MNI. |
