Thank you Kevin.
But I don't need any help.
Now fuck off and please, just stand around and do nothing.
I hate the thought of a hyper-active twit that just wants to do stuff. Very dangerous people.
One of these days, I am going to dig out "About face" and write down the story about how a Prussian general categorised his officers.
He had two axes on his chart - there was a stupid/smart axis and a lazy/active axis.
Smart but lazy people made great staff officers - they'd work out the simplest way to do something, then go play golf.
Smart and active people commanded battalions or something like that. I guess they all went over the top and got shot.
Stupid, lazy people are always with us, so sinecures had to be found for them - managing the stables and that sort of thing.
However, stupid active people had to be sought out, identified and gotten rid of as quickly as possible. There is noone so destructive as a stupid person that wants to do things.
