Hi, Maurice:
>>Hooray for Alan Green$pan, keeper of the greatest currency which ever stalked the earth. He's great!<<
Your constant singing of praise to Greenspan could be a hoax. Just to make your thumb stick out and/or poke it into our eyes. You'll have to provide evidence for that later on, if you suddenly, for whatever reasons, decide to come clean.
In the mean time I'll take it for a sincere conviction - just look at what he accomplished! -.
Taking just the adoration alone, it reminds me uncomfortably of all the masses that adored "The Great Leader" - Hitler, Kim Il Sung, Stalin, Mao Tze Dong, Tito -.
If Hitler was GroFAZ to Germans (*) you're close to calling Greenspan GroWAZ - The greatest Economist of All Times. Here's some more disturbing signs, you can expect in case of The-Great-Leader syndrome:
a) "If he ever knew" - ...he would not allow this to happen. It's the others, below him, he's off in his lonely chamber at the top of the tower, caring about our destiny.
b) The use of family attributes - Father of the country etc -. Now that the Big Brother has definitely turned sour as of 1984, and the Father is occupied by ... Holy Father for instance, Uncle is rather appropriate - cant be Son, Son has been occupied since cca 0AC. Would also make people ask about your age...
c) what's missing, but it may be coming, is writing a letter to the Big Uncle: "Dear Uncle AG, we bow deep & low to the eternal wisdom of the Biggest Economist of all Times and tell humbly our sad story, in the hope ...yada yada yada ..."
d) He's getting old so it's about time the discussion starts about alternatives. Like embalming and paying for Lenin mausoleum? Or let him ascend to heaven - in a SUV from the Temple mountain for instance, solving the Palestinian problem by unifying two major religions...
Re Breakfast in the grass, I guess Manet just surprised them at the wrong moment. Should wait for the rest to strip I guess... Re galaxies, they are work of God, we were discussing works of mankind.
Let my Kuh(**) be with you

(*) behind hands of course - Größte Feldherr Aller Zeiten, i.e. The Greatest Commander-in-Chief of All Times, because these 4 words just kept popping up
(**) pronounced Q. See Babelfish for translation (German to english) |
