Do you like her? Have you read her book, "Don't pee on my leg and Tell me it's raining"? I think you'd like it. The basic premise is that a lot of America's (and, before I have a bunch of flag waving zealots incapable of dispationate debate in the thread, I'd best add "consequently a lot of the western world's") problems stem from the policies which infantalise people and encourage a shirking of responsibility and expecting others to fix your problems. I know these are subjects that interest you, so thought you'd appreciate the heads up. |

I haven't heard about her before, but I laughed at the books title! It sounds like an interesting read, but I'm not sure if her book is available here. However, I think I may have been onto the same thought: In America there is a sort of ideal about "THE INDIVIDUAL" who stands sovereign ("I am the state of John. I am currently at war with the state of Carl.") with his or her individuality-promoting and liberating rights. I, as an INDIVIDUALYESIAM, have the right to be free from everyone else's judgement. However, at the same time, they seem to want the government to protect them ("I am not a subject, but I demand protection") while claiming innocence on account of "everyone else's influence on me while I was growing up" (or similar things). Thanks for the tip, if I see it I may not just think "HA HA funny book title, TV judge lady." |

I know the money that should have been spent on that book, will go to buy whisky instead. |

hahaha, that is indeed quite possible.. I also generally don't like ordering stuff on-line..aside from play.com I've ordered on-line only two times, and out of those two, only 1 (50%) was successful. |

no. What's it like? I generally go for Islay whiskys.. I think my fav has gone from laphroaig to lagavulin, but I try to keep both of them plus ardbeg in my cabinet at all times. |

I have never had a bad experience with online shopping. Nobody will steal a book like that. It's uneducated post office employes that steal porn thats the big problem. My brother ordered something once, and didnt get it. He then wrote a mail to them, and they replied very politely, and shipped it again without any trouble. |
