Unusal as it may seem, I'm not jewish, maybe we'll just put that down to 'hybrid vigour' :p |
Goth claws :nervous:. Speaking of goth stuff, I heard your new set. It got some pretty neat tunes but some pretty freaky too. :nervous: |

| Actually it's a very tame set that one, it does have a few pieces in it which have a mean streak to them but thats been 'toned down' by the remixes to make them a little more accessible, light and fluffy enough to dance too. |

Often this is crudely called 'balls' but I can assure you right now, two fleshy nuts have nothing to do with it. |
BTW, the latter sounded so much more eloquent than the former. I can't get that damn visual out of my now, thank you very much. And not just any regular... ummm... sack... but more like...  ... I'll stop. Don't want to be having nightmares involving nuts anytime soon :nervous:. |

Yeah I agree with Lilith on the desire.
Everybody wants to be rich, but nobody is willing to take the road of being rich. Another great book is
Think and Grow Rich, by Napoleon Hill. Its an old book, but there are some amazing stories in that book. |

| I think it was Noam Chomsky who said that Universities and the idea of "education" was set up for the sole purpose to form a middle class. A middle class that is trained for occupations that don't allow them to creativly make money. A 9-5 job isn't accumulating wealth. |

Secondly, there's the issue of Brain Drain . Take the case of India. Bright engineers graduate from Government funded top notch schools like the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) and choose to come over to US. These engineers have made a huge impact on the industry. But in the US and not in the home country. |
Indeed. I think people really underestimate the effect that this has... |

John T Reed is another wealth guru so I'd take his review with a grain of salt as well, but IMO he does raise some good points. |
