Hi DJ,

<<PS: re US-Sino relations, my sincere appologies for dragging this issue in>>

The issue is relevant to the thread's subject matter, long after 2001.

<<They shoot horses, dont they>>

Not any more, at least not the diligently working ones. More important to all Germans, they shoot less dogs, as the growing middle class looks for unconditional friendship while they get stressed out chasing the American, oops, I meant the Chinese dream; or maybe the German dream, not the part about where map is simplified, but the part where beer is freer flowing, and chugged.

Some of the "they" do advocate caning folks who deface Mercedes, a fine and valued possession. Some things are treated as important.

<<Think of my kids before pulling the trigger>>

At least they do not shoot darker complexioned folks, be they Tibetan or otherwise, at least not for crossing the street while clutching unpaid traffic tickets.

Odd thing, I didn't read (actually I didn't bother follow the story as they are getting too plentiful) about any apologies, sincere or otherwise, but maybe because no 24 policemen has yet been invited to relax at a palmy resort yet.

Odder thing still, no pending UN resolutions to squash as yet, either, probably because no one wants to waste their time.

On the Euro, thank Allah for them, as, together with the heavier metals, be they shiny or more glow-in-the-dark toxic, in the right hands, keeps the maestro and his boss more honest than otherwise.

The music playing is now by Luis Delgado of Spain, but "Bebiendo Al Alba" sounds Turkish for some reason. I still do not understand a single word, but would like to meet the girls that dance to the tune. The motion, strangely, remain the same, and I can see myself with turban wrapped around, arms outstretched, dancing around and round.

Chugs:) Jay
