Default Re: OT - bored with gaming ? Get philosophy!

I seem to recall it was Mark Twain who said "Any Fool can be a critic.....". Anyone want to complete the quote ?

I decided I had permission to speak LONG ago, see the above....

A politician complained that only one Texas Ranger was sent to quell a riot. The reply was :
"There Was Only One Riot" - anyone care to find that story ? All I found was :

There is no nation and no religion on earth that over the long haul makes a greater effort to inspire loyalty than the consumer megacorporations. http://www.cocacola.com/ http://www.dialcorp.com/index.cfm?page_id=62

At the root of everything lies language. The battle between Languages spans races, religions, nations, cultures....
English is an imperialistic language, driving into every corner of the world. This is not necessarily bad except for two major factors :
1) The insistence that only English be used. A second language should be learned. I learned Latin and have found it useful.
2) The **** English language dictionaries are BACKWARDS. You should have noticed that by now from the hints I have given.

I know that I have hit a REALLY big nail on the head because a red hot vise clamped down. But I can take that too and gain from the experience.....

I now point out the combats between fantasy and reality, between order and chaos, between the scientific method and superstition. I like them ALL! I do not discriminate. If you want to do things as I do then be flexible.....
