I would like to congratulate Julian Farod on having correctly identified the western quote. All the more impressive as I happen to know he is not of the western generation (other than vicariously through his Dad). He gets 5 bonus points in the great blogging competition.
Ah yes, you thought you were just passing an idle moment by reading this blog, I'm sorry but in this highly competitive dog eat dog world all activities need to be productive.
