Quincy Jones was a phenomenal musical sculptor before this fella wrote his first book, the driving force behind Serena's success is his dad, and Hemmingway... well I've never heard of her.

 

You reckon any of those people you've listed were paid for their words?

Go on, give him a go. You have nothing to lose ane EVERYTHING to gain.

You're sounding like I did when I was selling windows... and I sounded like a damned fool too.

 

Those books are stuffed with popcorn philosophies, vague promises and patronising gumph. If it works it's because you've already made the decision to be more proactive and you've the inherent desire to be successful anyway.

 

give that book to a benefit grazer and they won't change a damned thing about their life, give it to a Stock Broker and they'll become successful

It frightens me how many don't see past the basics.

 

I've got a friend here who is a 'healer' and people pay money to him for chats and the like. He's completely clueless and

often divulges to me how he totally 'lucked out' with this 'healing thing'.

Swine Flu Suspect: 'I've Got The Virus'

 

Graeme Pacitti fell ill after going out for a drink with Iain Askham - Britain's first confirmed victim of the disease along with his wife Dawn.

 

The two men went to a local pub shortly after the Askhams returned to Polmont, near Falkirk, from honeymoon in Mexico.

 

Mr Pacitti, 24, who works at Falkirk Royal Infirmary, has been given antiviral drugs and his own contacts are being followed up.

 

He is in quarantine at the flat he shjares with his mother and other family members.

 

Mr Pacitti, who plays in the same six-a-side football team as Mr Askham, told the Daily Mail: "It's just typical flu. I have a sore throat, a sore head and an upset stomach."

 

The Newcastle victim is a woman who recently returned from the Mexican holiday resort of Cancun.

 

She lives with two Newcastle University students, who are receiving treatment. Her symptoms are said to be mild.

 

Has anyone anywhere in authority actually stated that this strain is any more dangerous than the normal strains that go around.

 

No, but Dos Equis does seem to reduce resistance to it

THIS.......i think the death toll in Mexico is more of a testament to how shit the level of proper medical assistance is in Mexico, everyone else so far has had mild symptoms, with the exception of the toddler from Mexico that died in Texas

The point is that we have no resitance and it could easily mutate into something far worse.

Bit like your initial presence on this messageboard, then?

US just announced that the virus does not have the same bad traits as the 1918 one.

 

Start of the climbdown perhaps.

 

While all this was distracting us they did something real bad.

Fair enough, but you usually come across as the sort of person who does not dismiss a subject without fact or reason.

 

If you ever get bored and at a loss, buy one of his books (awaken the giant within) off ebay for a couple of quid and I guarantee you that after one chapter, if nothing else, you will no longer view him as "Californian pyscho-bullshit".

 

If you or anyone else prefers, theres also a very good audi book called get the edge on mininova.

 

 

If you read Sham: How the Self-Help Movement Made America Helpless

You see, that stuff doesn't appeal either

 

Me neither. I'd never heard of the bloke. I just saw that book amongst the list of criticisms against him on Wikipedia.

 

 

Proper Wiki Warrior me.

You read a fair bit of non-fiction though, don't you irrc? Basically stuff I'd like to read in theory but can't be arsed to in practice (Naomi Klein, etc.).

Aye. I love that shit. About 75% of my 'to read' shelf is non-fiction. Though I still like a bit of fiction. Just read Metamorphosis last week which was funnier than I expected. Just getting towards the end of Shantaram now too. Which has been epic.

Even if it was this isn't 1918, but frankly it's all been exaggerated from the off. Largely by the media, but also Mexican authorities in a panic.

 

It could still be nasty of course (1918 the 2nd mutation was worse).
