worrying and love Armeggedon Lite.
OK. I'm not really worried because my home country is a democracy and so it's "leaders" would never launch an unprovoked attack against some weak baddies just for the hell of it if the vast majority of its citizens and ruling elites are opposed, right?
That could never happen, right? So, I won't worry about it. What? Pass you the roach? You want a bug? Oh, you mean THAT kinda roach. Look, dude(tte), I don't do that kinda stuff. Do you know how much time you could spend in a prison here in the Land of the Morning Calm for that kind of behavior (or 'behaviour' for the Brits in the audience)?
This is confusing. I need a philosopher/king. . . maybe even a warrior/philosoper/king (oxymoron there?) to 'splain it (Ricky Ricardo expression) to me. Help. I'm confused, but luckily (from my own self-centered perspective, at least) still breathing.
Cheers.
