It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

That's cruel.  You are already down on your luck if you have to live in a loom.  If you lose the loom where do you go?  A spinning wheel?  Not in today's housing market.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Surely the Feds will blink and come to the rescue before they let that happen...surely?

Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".

I'm sure Ivankas working on the administrations response. "Try living somewhere else!"

Our chancellor said a few years ago that people who expect to have no or only small pensions (which means few working years or low income), should buy real estate for their retirement. :)
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

"Gimme Shelter" was stuck in my head before opening this thread, and the thread certainly hasn't helped with that. :sleep:

Reminds me of the Duke of Westminster's advice, as one of the UK's richest people, for entrepreneurs which was "make sure they have an ancestor who was a very close friend of William the Conqueror." Half tongue in cheek, half sadly true.

So in laymans terms, they're saying you need money to make money. And one of the best ways of having money is making sure you end up on the right side of certain people. Or at least make sure your ancestors did.

Will this impact on their ability to vote? - not having a stable address registered et al.

Loved that game. I don't know if it would hold up today though.

no entitlements they said!  :grr:

If people are too sick to work and pay their rent, they just had to not get sick in the first place.  Logical.  When you don't think about it.
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.
