Thought for the day

A good person always knows their limitations.

 

[noirua]

Flowers are oft' the gift of thoughtlessness, be it what is expected to be given and no time or even the status quo, but stress there is and time on others to deal with them, and thought toward status quo ante the answer and respect.

 

[noirua]

Decisions are with the living and none with the dead.

 

[noirua]

This bear market will be long and hard. Be not fooled by lengthy recoveries as they are there to drag you in.

 

[noirua]

The journey always ends at the same place, having started there. Whatsoever you do meanwhile matters not a jot, nothing whatsoever.

 

[noirua]

IF YOU CAN'T SEE MY MIRRORS, I CAN'T SEE YOU!

 

[noirua]

In my younger days I was honourable and fought the battles of argument that I thought were right.
These days, I'm seen as more sensible as I fight the battles I can win. I wonder why though, that I do not feel so right about it now as I did then.

 

[Calliope]

I love it when the bulls score a win at Pamplona.

IF YOU CAN'T SEE MY MIRRORS, I CAN'T SEE YOU!

Or praps that should be ...

"If you can't see my mirrors, then I can't see your eyes.
But if you're driving a normal width vehicle behind me, and I can't see you, then I haven't set my mirrors correctly".

So Calliope, you're asking us to celibrate a death ?

The mayor of Pamplona in Spain says the running of the bulls festival will continue despite a man being gored to death last night.

A 27-year-old Spanish man became the first person to die from a bull attack at the festival for 15 years.

Yeah I thought that was a bit rough, com'on Calliope someone died there.

 

[Calliope]

So Calliope, you're asking us to celibrate a death ?

No. I didn't ask you to celibrate (sic) anything.

 

[2020hindsight]

well done , because that would indeed be sic
... (sic)

PS some say it's called "paying the rent" ...
but having said that , the same happens whenever daredevils do these things - whether surfing with sharks, or parachuting, etc etc

but it's something else to say that you "love it" when the bull (or the shark etc) kills someone.

I love it when the bulls score a win at Pamplona.

Yep, I had the same thought. Just a very small retribution for all that the miserable human beings put the animals through for their own amusement.
It's a disgusting and gross sport.

They just run them through the street don't they ? they dont hurt them as far as I know.

Julia, thats sums up my feelings exactly on this "disgusting and gross" bullfighting industry. It's schadenfreude.

 

[2020hindsight]

I know an Aussie who ran it this year. - (he's not a bullfighter btw)
I was pleased to see he's ok.

I've bought a bike, as in pedal cycle - part of my green contribution to the world. I noticed the sign on the rear of a very long vehicle. Obvious you might think, but it's easy to forget at that vital moment and get nastily squashed.

Good luck, don't ride it on the roads, make sure you stick to the bike tracks, only suicide contenders mix it with the idiots that have drivers licenses these days.
