The Economic Crisis and Spain
Some Home truths. The economic crisis in Europe has now been dragging on for four years. Far too long given that there are no indications that the situation is improving. So what exactly is the problem? I have read many detailed and exhaustive explications of the root causes of the crisis, but as is so often the case their observations do not start at zero, no, their starting point is often...

A brief history of the 'Euro Crisis.'
You didn’t want to know? Sorry for bothering you, maybe you might like my latest book, ‘The day the lights went out’ at amazon.com, but I’m sure some of you must be interested. To start at the beginning, Europe as it exists today in its incomplete form is an untidy cluster of small countries squashed together upon quite a small land mass. Now geographically speaking Europe is quite big, but... (posted by Terrence 39 days 22 hours ago.)

What is the definition of Luxury?
What is luxury to you? A rare stone, dug up at huge human cost that you can hang around your neck? A job, a roof over your head and a meal tomorrow? A billion dollar yacht? A chance, a hope to survive? Is there any difference in any of the above definitions of luxury? If you think there is you are lost, hopelessly and terribly lost. For the majority of people on planet earth luxury is a definition of something beyond... (posted by Terrence 49 days 22 hours ago.)

How to Write a book
There must be many potential authors and writers here, many with a natural gift for writing, but how easy is it to make the jump from five hundred word observations to a hundred thousand words? Please allow me the indulgence to share my birthing pains with you. Do you like the title? I don’t, but it will catch some traffic. A little sad, I know, but welcome to the wonderful World of quick fixes. Really I should have titled... (posted by Terrence 61 days 20 hours ago.)

Time To Revisit Our Definition of Sanity?
The guy shuffling down the street with a “The end of the World is nigh hoarding hanging across is shoulders is crazy, right? The followers of Jesus Christ awaiting his return (with donkey?) are a little detached, maybe? The youngsters that would rather get high than get real are a wasted space?

Should You Be Feeling Angry Right Now?
May I suggest yes and no, yes, if you believe that whatever political leader that you helped vote into power has let you down and no, if you really thought that your sum total effort in the governance of planet Earth was to mark an X in a box once every four or five years. Is it not ironic that a tiny country in the Eastern Mediterranean that is celebrated as the birth place of civilisation is now in danger of... (posted by Terrence 207 days ago.)
