The question went unanswered as I drifted off to sleep and dreamt I was hanging from a cliff. Every time I would almost pull myself up I would slip again.

I got up about 5 am, took a shower and got dressed...

    Well, politics is everything that's wrong with the world, so being politically incorrect is the way to go.
