"When Black Friday comes
I'll stand down by the door
And catch the grey men when they
Dive from the fourteenth floor."
(Steely Dan)
Will they dive? I doubt it. They've got their loot stashed away in the same dodgy banks the tinpot dictators and the drugs kingpins use. It's other people's money they gamble with and lose.
Reagan's dead, Thatcher's gaga, but their legacy lives on.

About Me
- Jemmy Hope
- "Grandad's swearing at the telly..." (Alan Klein, "What a Crazy World.") Old, tired and somewhat disillusioned, but trying to keep up standards. Aware that capitalism cannot be reformed, but despairing of its dissolution in the near future, I use whatever means are available to me to avoid capitulation. I join forces with other resisters in the Industrial Workers of the World.

Black Friday, Katy Lied, Walter Becker and Donald Fagan on top form at their cynical best. A man of impeccable taste Jemmy.
Cheers, Jim! I'm going to print this comment off and carry it around as a reference.
That might be a grave mistake Jemmy, having me as a character reference. Look what happened to Valverde in Le Tour. To paraphrase Groucho Marx "I wouldn't want to join any club that would have me as a member"
Of course no one will believe me, but I was backing Carlos Sastre at the start, but it got so you didn't know who was team leader, then I gave up on him.
OK, I won't use your comment as a reference, I'll just frame it and hang it on the wall alongside my swimming certificate (swam one length of the pool).
