His A Level results were pretty dire were they not?

Re: The Overspent American
^Woss (vaguely knew him at one time), the Beckhams et al. annoy me because they don't have anything to offer yet they presume to be style leaders and movers and shakers. I'd rather listen to a great surgeon or even a great binman (seriously) than to their twaddle. I guess that I am sure that I see through them - deep down they are shallow (John Julius Norwich's line) and I am cross that other people don't too. Blair is another one - a total con-man.
Hep - they were - as well as rich in a continuous stream of inventions, cartography and the gathering of all kinds of knowledge and endeavour.

Re: The Overspent American
It's the two times divorced or more with families that I pity, you know the type, they need about three grand stirling a month after tax just to pay-off the ex-wives and kids. They haven't got time or money to work their way-up Maslows hierarchy of needs. Just enough left for supermarket wine bought in cartons.

Unless he concluded that 21 was the number of notes excluding the octave? Either way it's not right, and he presents it as fact...

Although I have a wide variety of way out theories. Homeopathy strikes me as the biggest snake oil ruse ever. Little sugar pills at £6.50 a pop with no actual physical ingredients. Whoever came up with this shit puts most other business people to shame.

Re: The Overspent American
Yes, and he's got dire taste in architecture too. Anybody seen that "new old" style he's adopted in Poundbury for his peasants to live in? Vile. It's like an architect for the sort of supermarket you see on the outskirts of rural market towns has designed a housing estate. And been paid in over-priced biscuits.
His lecture to that centre for Islamic studies on why Galileo ruined everything is hard to beat for dim-witted Neo-Luddism.
I can't stand the bloke.
