I fully understand Winston's love of a drop or two: I work for a city government (in U.S.)and it is a pain. But, consider the alternatives to democracy, even when democracy screws up (yes, that's exactly what I mean).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-1137594555978408372006-01-18T15:29:00.000+01:002006-01-18T15:29:00.000+01:00Merci Winston!

Je suis sûre qu'il aurait besoin d'un conseiller stratégique de ton expérience pour délivrer le monde des tyrans. Y'en a un qui dit être connecté avec lui, mais je crois qu'il aurait plutôt besoin d'un tranquilisant. Si tu devenais son conseiller, au moins le roi Georges en Amérique prendrais de meilleures décisions...camionneusehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11026401739719353279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-1137593022071636332006-01-18T15:03:00.001+01:002006-01-18T15:03:00.001+01:00Hey Eric!I'm french and I live in London since a y...Hey Eric!<BR/>I'm french and I live in London since a year and a half and just to say it's nice to see the good side of Paris at last.<BR/>Almost making me feel homesick! ;-) (almost)<BR/><BR/>beau travail!<BR/><BR/>P.NPrince Nezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02420191228293677797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-1137592988081059762006-01-18T15:03:00.000+01:002006-01-18T15:03:00.000+01:00He was a rather interesting, colorful, and also co...He was a rather interesting, colorful, and also controversial figure, as newly released records of World War II Cabinet meetings reveal.
