    Drivelling in TPD is not a mental health issue. We're just community blogging, that's all.

        So is it defeatism or is it pessimism? I need to know what I'm being warned against.

            I'm optimistic about my defeatism. Is that good or bad?

              I learn many such words from the publications from the desk of the supreme leader.

              I'm yet to understand most of them - but I take comfort in the knowledge that we are the best hands possible.

                Massive layoffs as gloom deepens

                Workers around the world face losing their jobs as several big corporations announced more than 70,000 layoffs in one single day.

                The biggest cuts came in the US where construction equipment maker Caterpillar said it would cut around 20,000 jobs.

                In Europe, electronics group Philips, financial firm ING and UK steelmaker Corus announced cuts.

                The announcements underscore the depth of the global downturn.

                  Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? - Epicurus

                    It's called working for a living.

                    I do apologise.
