The weekend is nearly here. Instead of my usual anticipation there is a feeling of weariness. After Tuesday I’m off the project. Took this stage live, now I can go. Away from people who lie and abuse me. Away from a huge conflict of interest, I can’t protect those who don’t deliver but politically I was under pressure to pretend they did fine. Such a relief.
Meanwhile the writing weekend awaits. That means what is the theme for the weekend?
As the rugby world cup is on in New Zealand I suspect this has to have an influence on me.
So this weekend the theme is
COMPETITION.

Rest up this weekend and get better!
I’m trying
When my granddaughter was three I taught her to play simple dominoes matching the cartoon characters(not dots as normal). I would let her win and make such a fuss about losing and about how smart she was and the time or two I would win I would gloat in a soft and kind way. One day she exclaimed “Grandpa, it does not matter who wins, because we are having fun.” What kind of socialist trash are the schools teaching our kids about competition? Everyone knows it is the American way and the Christian way to destroy the opponent mercilessly, rub his nose in blood and make the kid run crying home to his mother!
aaah! the male and female differences
it is so much better to walk away!
now a stage is over, yes I can go with a clear conscience
Erk…
love them, hate them, indifferent……….?
I have made a response to the challenge Sidey.
By the way being taken off things hurts.
Hope the bruises heal soon.!

I am so glad to be going. There will be ramifications for them in doing so as I did what they had been unable to achieve in the previous project 😉
Competition and GREED are causing the collapse of Capitalism:

oh yes, people behave as they are rewarded. unbridled capitalism is not a good thing at all
I confess to being disappointed that we didn’t get a rocking discussion about capitalism and its shortcoming going today . . . but it is my own fault.
What the hell was I thinking posting this post on a Friday ~ at the end of a long hard work week???
My bad.
Enjoy the weekend!
by the week’s end maybe everyone is too tired by the demands of capitalism to respond?

wonderful, on my way to read
Everyone would be happier if they quit keeping score at games like rugby . . . What? No!
i suspect not 😉
although when your team loses……………
male competitiveness is maybe stronger than the female?
