Best quote ever...

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

Best quote ever...

Post by Chuck »

"The Budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed, lest Rome will become bankrupt.

People must again learn to work instead of living on public assistance."

Cicero, 55 BC


So, evidently we've learned bugger all over the past 2,069 years.

Might we need a new outlook for today with a world population of seven billion?
Cicero's Rome had fewer than a million.
