Don't sit next to two women anywhere except when it's unavoidable:jibber jabber being their raison d'etre. Unfortunately, it's not even possible to avoid senseless chatter from them even at a distance these days. Every few weeks I get my ear bent from one of them in New York and a couple of days ago another telephoned with the wonderful news that she can now get a cheap rate form the Swiss telephone service and will be calling me once a month henceforth. Don't you just love modern technology ?

Tip 217: Don't assume that raising your voice has the same effect as a simultaneous translation of your language into someone else's.
It is embarassing to be with people who do this.
Tip #218 - Don't derail a lighthearted thread.
As I've had a habit of doing lately, with all of my sincerely deep questioning and thinking, almost like the woman in that "limitations" video. The only difference between her and me is that I don't know all the answers.

Orientals know that the best education in a particular sphere is in the West but, when they have learned it, they will eventually use it to overtake the West.Quote:
