Introductions Part 2 !

                                                     He introduced me to Luis Rivera , an Argentinian hippy who just happened to be the head hotel maintenance man , and told Luis to look after me and get me kitted out in the hotel uniform , and to get my hair cut so I would be neat and tidy for tomorrows introduction to hotel life ,
                                                     Now Luis was a really nice guy , a bit spacey but isn't everybody in some shape or form ? He was going to be my best friend over here and in so many ways a stabilising influence on me .
                                                     I won't go too much into my hair cutting ,suffice to say I was depressed all evening and couldn't believe what I had done . Every time I looked in the mirror , I seen someone who was not me . How could I sell myself out to conformity  ?, but it had to be done no doubt about it !I'll just finish this episode by saying , I don't think I'll ever truly get over that awful experience .
                                                     The apartment was communal , there were three rooms each with four beds and I was shown mine . A locker beside my bed was my only bit of privacy that I would have for the next ten months .To be honest privacy was not something that was to be had obviously in an apartment with four beds in each room , but we made do !
                                                     One by one the occupants of each bed arrived after work and we introduced ourselves .In my room was Jean Claude from Paris , Brinda Git from New Delhi , and then there was Bob from London . Geneva , I then truly understood why it was called the most international city in the world !
                                                   
No need to examine or analyze me , I am Well Beyond That !

Zionism and its Supporters , A Cancer That Needs Extracting !

When you see countries committing indefensible acts on their fellow human beings , something must be said . Not just in objection to those acts , but to remind everyone exactly how evil a position can be taken by supposed civilized societies . Take the Jews for instance , because they suffered at the hands of the Nazi's , the world welcomed the survivors and leaders with open arms , saying this will never happen again . This statement in itself was to be commended and lauded by anyone with a hint of decency . The Germans had done to them things that should never be spoken off . But lest we forget , this is an example of how one society can turn on another at the drop of a hat . Now lets start thinking hypothetically , take your own country wherever you may be , lets just take the Good Old U.S.of A for example , and for the sake of argument you don't happen to be a world power with nuclear weapons and such .There you are minding your own business , and the United Nations

Happiest of New Years Everybody !

                                                                    In the huge scheme of things we live our lives in a way that has been somehow mapped out for us .  We wake every day and do the things that are expected to be done by others , but mostly by ourselves . Most of the time we are pleased by our efforts , and sometimes we just let ourselves down . And that's okay too , because we're not as perfect as we would like to be , or as others might expect us to be . We are as good as we want ourselves to be , or as we hope ourselves to be .                                                                    Now at this time of year I tend to get a little sentimental about stuff . You know what I'm talking about ? Family , the future , the dog and I suppose a little about our own mortality . The rest of the year seemingly it simply doesn't seem to matter . Christmas and even more importantly the change over from one year to another is so deep in our character and

A Ghost in my Machine !

                                                        Being forever the optimist , you'd wonder what could possibly change my position regarding the same . I never get paranoid , well nobody has complained about my demeanour recently , so I'll take that as a positive . But you know when something is not sitting with you too well ? You kinda feel that because certain things are happening so out of character , that well something you think is amiss .                                     Take for instance last Friday , I go to my laptop and practically every app I use is asking me to change my password . Normally if one asks I will put it down to something updating or whatever , but when most of them ask you kinda feel something is just not right .                                      Then you decide to change your operating system back from Windows 10 to Windows 7 your original operating system , and your laptop stops functioning entirely .Wont even let you boot up in safe mo
