Unimportant work expands to fill the time in which frightening things should be done

Urgent but unimportant work expands to fill the time in which frightening things should be done and unpleasant decisions taken.

Facebook expands to fill the time in which unimportant work should be done.

  1. Since reading the above I've tried to spend less time on the internet.

    Social networking is a weak substitute for face to face, shoulder to shoulder, contact with people in the real world.

    But I do enjoy reading your blog - it's annoying, irritating, reactionary, funny, thoughtful and downright outrageous sometimes.

    But thats you :).

    Thanks.

  2. I cannot imagine anyone being annoyed by plain common sense but ours is a degenerate age. But thank you for the compliments and for reading it.

  3. It is a joy to read you.

    It must be an Orwellian twist that Romania is perceived freer than England. Such times we live in.

    1. Thank you very muich- please keep reading. And do invent an alias! Yes it is very true. I am typing this in the West End of London and am very aware of the restictions on freedom. Were I to light a cigarette or loudly criticise Islam or the sin of Sodom.... Romanians still live in an atmosphere of fear because of Communism but nowadays the English do too.
