I was on topic, a rebel with a cause. Those Thai street racers have no agenda. Well, sex , yes, but it aint that hard (pun) to get. It is the political task of the social scientist -- as of any liberal educator – continually to translate personal troubles into public issues, and public issues into the terms of their human meaning for a variety of individuals. It is his task to display in his work – and, as an educator, in his life as well -- this kind of sociological imagination. And it is his purpose to cultivate such habits of mind among the men and women who are publicly exposed to him. To secure these ends is to secure reason and individuality, and to make these the predominant values of a democratic society As an engineer doing risk assesment its my task to examine cause and effect. As a manager its my task to examine what motivates my staff and motivate acordingly. Maybe I fink too mutt, sabai sabai dee kwa. In my current position, i can see the lights are on in many, but the Gerbils are very much dead |

Better be careful, as self proclaimed worthless scum he might just fink on you  Alas Dear Uncle, not self proclaimed, tis a sobriquet picked up from elsewhere, where I was referred to as "worthless scum", quite amazing really seeing as the person concerned knows nothing about me. I wear it like a badge of honour, seen them come, seen them go, seen them come back again with new names, quite amazing really. |

Console yourself with the fact some mug is dumb enough to pay you big wonga for "babysitting" these idiots. Further consolation can be had from knowing, there are mugs out there willing to do your job for half of what you are paid. Even further, at the end of the month, pull out your pay cheque and have a right old laugh. Even better, why would you want these idiots to get smart, if so you would be out of a job. Blessed are the Cheesemakers. |

Vicious. ... and that when he's still in a friendly mood. Watch out when he gets nasty and starts to declaim John Milton, or works his way through the complete Ulysses from James Joyce |

................"Even better, why would you want these idiots to get smart, if so you would be out of a job"...................... Hurts me to admit it, but rg makes a good point here. Rather than hang shite on the idiots of the world, the smart ones appreciate the fact that they are idiots, otherwise there would be just that bit more competition for their positions. Like the smart, attractive people don't criticize the ugly ones. If not for them the "pretties" would not look so good. Some people who sit in their ivory towers hanging crap on all the plebs below, are not as smart as they think they are. And they are telling the world what nasty prix they are.  |
