"we have not been here before"

So true

it's probably going to come to the opinion of the teutonic man on the street because politics will rule the decision the german policy makers will make as regards bailing out their wastrel neighbors.

and the typical teuton is not happy. he sees no reason for germany to be in the EU. if it comes to it, and it might, will Willi Six Stein vote to dial 1-800-get-me-out or will his traditional penchant for good deeds and selflessness prevail?

i think i have a clue to the correct answer: his fat little digits will be dialing away.

bye, bye EU.

it will go the away of another stupid idea, the United Arab Republic, if you remember that far.

but there will be pain galore in the process. the biggies, france, spain and italy, will be toast.

japan, too. what a mess it is. the demographics alone guarantee a crisis, and no bond can yield what the JGBs yield and survive.

a lesson we need to capture.

we at least are inventive and have re-invented ourselves many times, very few other countries can do so.

oh, yeah, we have never been here before.

send money, guns and lawyers.

And what a great place to be - adventuring into the wild blue yonder... <we have never been here before.> That's a bloke's job in life - take the chance of adventure where nobody has gone before. That's why the mother of all non-Africans migrated 90,000 years ago and the father of all non-Africans migrated 25,000 years ago [more or less] = men are disposable because one can service a harem of 4 which coincidentally is the number Islam allows [I think it's about that many] but they are born at the ratio of 1 man per 1 woman. Women are primarily the pregnant, the lactating, the infant minding - the bloke can't do that so he might as well be off taking the risks. If he doesn't come back, there are plenty more willing and able to fertilize the women and keep the supply of wildebeest going while women harvest some yams and bananas.
