Taurus Meister, Mikey, Mr Sherrie has hit on it I reckon. Yeah! I wanna be a Winner. I wanna be a player. They even called me a Winn-er; course I want to be one. Sloping off into the nite isn't a winner! That's a piker, a coward, not up with the play, party pooper, negative. Sir Rick. You are on the way to putting backbone into us GOOFIs. We should stand up for our right to bow out. We should be proud to be laughed at when we put in for some dud in the investment shop.
Do we have a personality profile? Our tiny minds seem to be in synch. Which probably means we don't know enough to differ. But did anyone do psychology? I don't even live in California and have difficulty with my relationship with sheep, so know little of arcane points on Freud, "in denial" and all that stuff, this is only a suggestion.
Does a GOOF have a childhood of "Not today Tommy!" "Isn't little Peter down the road just the cleverest little handsome chap?" "Watch it punk!" "Ha! ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!" "Mum, Tommy's done doo-doos in the bath again", "Mum, why does my little brother have to be such a drip?" "I don't know Spike; did you get top of the class again?" "Tommy don't pick your nose in public" "Oh, I don't know Harold! Spike seems to be so popular and Tommy just pees his pants". Later, at school. "Tommy! Stop daydreaming when I'm trying to tell you about Greek history" "Tommy, stop drawing pictures of space ships and walkie talkies on your exercise books". Tommy goes to work. "Shit Tommy, do it like I say. We don't need your ideas". "This company was here before you were born and it'll be here a long time after you''ve gone".
Well, here we are folks. And guess what. Spike buys at the top, cause he's used to getting it handed on a plate. No dry gulch for him. Nobody gives us anything, so we gotta go dig it out ourselves. The world of Big Business is as imaginative as a brick. Maybe we are wanting to finally be accepted; even though we have created a great life, having escaped their clutches, there is still that niggling little urge in there to do more, be more. Beat Spike! Ride the rocket ship! So we hold on too long.
"What a pillock you are Maurice" "Cancel the NGW status Paul, he's lost it", "Where'd he get such a dum idea?"
Any other comments?
NG Winner! |
