Søren Kierkegaard, Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Jean-Paul Sartre, Friedrich Nietzsche to name but a couple.
None of them could play football, so why concern yourself.

What about Albert Camus? He certainly could.

It's the folk that can't play football that are doing the societal damage, same the countries and continents that can't.

The Possessed and The Brothers Karamazov by Dostoyevsky are must reads.
Can't wack a bit of Russian literature.

Hi YesThat.
Never really took to the Matrix.
I always thought that the conspiracy was convincing us that Keano Reeves can act.

love it or not the matrix was a big deal in introducing the concept of the nature of existence to folk.
for that it will always be a big deal in film.
groundhog day is more important but hardly anyone will ever realise it.

My life is pretty much groundhog day
Work,eat,sleep work,eat sleep. I know my work/life balance is all out of kilter but finding the cure eludes me at the moment.
Maybe my months holiday next month will sort it.

I'll give it another try. Much respect yTib for your earlier post which got deleted. There's no 'real content' anymore on here, unfortunately.

This boards days are numbered. It's just going to turn into a toxic wasteland for the duped right vs left.
Puppets for muppets.
Anyway, Look after yourself, adios amigo.
