An Approach














I find myself more and more in the company of the so-called businessmen.

That they need all the amenities of travel life is known to anyone who has ever tried it - and this is no joke.

But it is also the sad truth of all of us, businessmen included, that the corporate world unwittingly and sadly exploits all those not in its favour. This is perhaps also apparent.

However, is it also apparent that we, in our daily roles of porters, waiters etc. - humbly cower? Yes, we like and dislike but we also - tolerate. We earn that dollar.

And then you have the activists and - those a bit more violent. Not being able to imagine a world constructed better (I for one cannot indeed), they blindly and desperately destroy.

Today I saw the Rainbow Warrior in the Port of Dubrovnik. Suprisingly a small operation, really.

I personally shall advocate - ridicule. So I tease about contribution etc.

In one of Croatian weeklies there's a good column which is all about writing about people who were in (any position of) power ten years back. When the suits fray off.

Cast Dies

There is probably not a single one of us who sometimes has not wished that theft for instance should be punished by chopping hands off. Still, we don't do it. Why? Maybe because tens of people die yearly just because they are stupid enough to stick their fingers into sockets out of curiosity.

Today, a dictator was sentenced to death. Nota bene, by hanging. A firend asked whether I was against capital punishment per se. Avoiding all studies of prisons being corrective institutions, a word for the time spent on thinking how life sucks once you're deposed. And, what about setting a better example and showing off in front of that cell TV?

One additional complication is the US role. Far from being angels, as only a lunatic can expect anyway, they stand vulnerable to being accused of running a puppet case.

And what of monstrosities? I personally come from a country where it was served in America for dinner. None complained too vigorously. Hungary is but another current example.

And what next? I asked my Mum about the Middle East when it recently started. She replied wisely: they mess around where they shouldn't – until something vile occurs.

Optional List

Responsibility vs. drifting
Measure for measure: immitation & creativity
Individuality or adaptation
Credibility
Example leadership
Success (no option)

Next step would be hyperlinking these.
Mongrels, they say are the best dogs.
The other day I read how this HR composer has so many influences he can be described best as himself.

List of things, I`d never wanted to do, but anyway did today

  1. Using one of that terribly uninspired, comercial blogging-platforms for a blog-project.
  2. Making strange people laugh by using my neglected school-english for writing.
  3. Hiding behind the worn-out stilistic form of a "list" to cover an obvious lack of creative potential.
