Vorurteile
Interessant ist nicht nur, wer da bei der UN wie oft gegen die Interessen der U.S.A. gestimmt hat - nein, ich finde es viel wichtiger festzustellen, daß Deutschland in der Liste der 'friendly states' überhaupt nicht vorkommt ....
Muß es uns da freuen, daß wir auch nicht in der Liste der 'hostile states' geführt werden?

Die - selbsternannten und deswegen von ihren Claqueuren so bezeichneten - α-Blogger* sind unzufrieden mit dem, was sie so an Kommentaren bekommen ....
Wie schrieb mir neulich ein anderer Blogger:
Wer polarisiert muß damit rechnen angegriffen zu werden ....
Nun aber bitte lieb sein und bei den α-Bloggern* ganz, ganz zustimmende & sprachlich wohlgesetzte Kommentare schreiben und nicht vergessen, euch mit eurem Namen anzumelden .... was Herr W. S. kraft Amtes nicht schafft wird nun - den tollen Alphas und ihrer zarten Befindlichkeit sei Dank! - frei Haus in deren Weblogs geliefert.
Geliefert?
Ja, irgendwann ist dann jeder geliefert!
Deutschland im 'vorauseilenden Gehorsam'-srausch - was sonst?

Ganz recht, "Winkelschleifer", weil die Kraft um 90° gedreht auf einen rotierenden Teller übertragen wird ....
Einen Winkelschleifer, im Volksmund auch kurz "Flex" genannt hatte ich am 18.05.2007 bei RATIO erstanden: € 19.90 .... sehr preisgünstig, weil zudem noch mit drei unterschiedlichen Scheiben ausgestattet ....
Nach Zuschneiden mehrerer Steine / Klinker hat das Gerät heute 'seinen Geist aufgegeben' .... ein Ärgernis, sollte es doch noch helfen, überschüssigen Mörtel von meinem Projekt zu entfernen .... auch neue Kohlekontakte [höhere Heimwerkerkunst, nicht Jede/-r/-m zugänglich ;c)] halfen nicht, das Gerät blieb einfach 'stumm'.
Ich also mit Quittung (!) und Gerät zu RATIO - in der Erwartung heißer Kämpfe um die Garantie .... aber: Weit gefehlt!
Die nette Dame an der Infotheke telefonierte mit einem netten Herrn irgendwo in einem der zugehörigen Büros und der entschied:
Neues Gerät - ohne wenn & aber!
Wie sagte ich früher hier schon 'mal:
Wenn 'was gut gelöst wird muß man es auch einmal schreiben ....
Die Welt ist nämlich nicht nur schlecht ....

-- What do you expect from such simple creatures? Your last name stays put. The garage is all yours. Wedding plans take care of themselves. Chocolate is just another snack. You can be President. You can never be pregnant. You can wear a white T-shirt to a water park. You can wear NO shirt to a water park. Car mechanics tell you the truth. The world is your urinal. You never have to drive to another gas station restroom because this one is just too icky. You don't have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt. Same work, more pay. Wrinkles add character. Her Wedding dress - $5000. Your Tux rental - $100. People never stare at your chest when you're talking to them. The occasional well-rendered belch is practically expected. New shoes don't cut, blister, or mangle your feet. One mood all the time.
Phone conversations are over in 30 seconds flat. You know stuff about tanks. A five-day vacation requires only one suitcase. You can open all your own jars. You get extra credit for the slightest act of thoughtfulness. If someone forgets to invite you, he or she can still be your friend.
Your underwear is $8.95 for a three-pack. Three pairs of shoes are more than enough. You almost never have strap problems in public. You are unable to see wrinkles in your clothes. Everything on your face stays its original color. The same hairstyle lasts for years, maybe decades. You only have to shave your face and neck.
You can play with toys all your life. Your belly usually hides your big hips. One wallet and one color for all seasons. You can wear shorts no matter how your legs look. You can "do" your nails with a pocket knife. You have freedom of choice concerning growing a mustache. You can do Christmas shopping for 25 relatives on December 24 in 25 minutes.
No wonder men are happier.
Talk about this to the women who can handle it ....
And to the men who will enjoy reading it ....

kann ich einfach nicht (mehr) zuhören.
Dem Radio zuhören.
Das Fernsehen meide ich ja schon länger ....
Ich störe mich an der aufgesetzt-penetranten Stimmungsmache, die dem Volke weismachen will im nächsten Jahr werde alles viel besser .... ich sehe förmlich die Nasen wachsen!

Die pauschale Annahme, "alle" Amerikaner seien dumm, faul und Imperialisten (Ja, sowieso!) kann nur durch Gegenbeweis ad absurdum geführt werden. Hier also ein weiteres Beispiel, daß es dort doch eine Anzahl Menschen gibt, die sich Gedanken um den Verlust von Werten in ihrem Land machen:
" .. Dear Daily Reckoning reader,
On the Fourth of July, more than anytime of the year, the emphasis is put strongly on the American patriotic spirit. Perhaps that's why we were recently accused of having "lost our sense of home," as we have dared to leave our American birthplace to live abroad in Europe.
Because we were "cowardly" enough to leave America, this reader suggests that we have not only lost our sense of home, but our sense of family, neighborhood and roots.
To this we reply:
How do you think you got to America in the first place?
Was it because your ancestors were too cowardly to stay in Ireland, Germany, England or Italy? And what about those who leave from India, China, or France, today, to make their homes in America? Are they cowards, too? Is that the problem with everyone who doesn't stay put; does he or she lack backbone?
"Where freedom is, that is my country," we've always believed. Americans used to be a restless breed, always searching for greater freedom, greater opportunity, and a place to have a smoke. Your ancestors probably left the old world because they were looking for something better - a place where they could mind their own business, earn a living and find happiness in their own way. But now that the country has become the homeland of a vast decadent empire, with an agenda of its own, we have to ask ourselves:
Where should real Americans live?
Where is freedom now?
Where are opportunities?
There are no sure answers to those questions, but we find some of the most appealing of our countrymen outside of the country. It is as if they had left so that they could continue living as Americans should - by their own wits and their own wills. In many ways, they are the best Americans. In some ways, they are the only ones left.
Happy Fourth of July,
Bill Bonner
The Daily Reckoning .. "
P.S. In an important collection of essays called The Idea of America, we explore the questions at the bedrock of the nation. This book represents some of the most significant ideas that have shaped thinking about America - what it is and what it's supposed to be. Read on to find out more.
