“The real hopeless victims of mental illness are to be found among those who appear to be most normal. Many of them are normal because they are so well adjusted to our mode of existence, because their human voice has been silenced so early in their lives, that they do not even struggle or suffer or develop symptoms as the neurotic does. They are normal not in what may be called the absolute sense of the word; they are normal only in relation to a profoundly abnormal society. Their perfect adjustment to that abnormal society is a measure of their mental sickness. These millions of abnormally normal people, living without fuss in a society to which, if they were fully human beings, they ought not to be adjusted.”

Pointy hat, ie KKK plus we are dealing with the Confederate flag debacle here down South in a divided Amerika. Made me think KKK. No closet for me. Married, 4 kids, no close guy friends (if ya know what I mean).
william....could you please make over the picture of the german finance minister that the tylers always use. you know the one...been used twice today. i am thinking something in a SS uniform....god knows he looks like one out of uniform.
Leave Schaueble alone. His job is to be a Scrooge, or at least perceived as one. Whether he is pandering to a crowd is not obvious to me, yet. Do you also like to poke fun at the few fiscally responsible representatives on our side of the Atlantic? Ever defaulted? How tolerant were your creditors?
Is the US national debt amusing to you? A non issue?
Would you support a personal tax increase or else (deferred with lots of interest) put on the credit card, a bailout for Puerto Rico? Successive bailouts when they did not change the way they did business? Seems to me, 'charity(and responsibility) begins at home.'
A little tip: If you go to borrow money, you will likely have to agree to their terms, not your own.
TAPI pipeline states to select consortium leader in Sept - Turkmen head
The four countries planning a gas pipeline from Turkmenistan to Pakistan and India via Afghanistan will in September pick a company to lead construction, paving the way to the start of work on the project, the Turkmen president said on Saturday.
Turkmenistan, a central Asian nation of 5.5 million, holds the world's fourth-largest natural gas reserves and sees the TAPI pipeline, named after the countries it is designed to cross, as a way of boosting exports.
It has won support from the United States but security concerns and costs estimated at $10 billion have caused delays.
"At this moment negotiations ... are entering the final stage, a consortium leader will be named in September, after which the implementation of the project will begin," President Kurbanguly Berdymukhamedov said during talks with visiting Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
A Turkmen government official, who asked not be named, said construction work could start in December. Companies involved in the talks have not been named.

The perfect quote from a very learned gentleman.
Alan Watts had much to say about this as well.
Lee And Jonas Salk were clients of mine years ago. Jonas had balls but both died from cardiac issues. Lee had stomach cancer prior but both were very cordial men and will be missed.
I would be mortified if I had written that I took that for a Klansman. Oh well.
The beauty is, the very same thing that allowed you to write that, will shield you from any possible embarrassment. LOL 8)
