the man who has everything would have a beard trimmer anyway, but because he has everything he must also have a beard, but then that means he hasn't got a clean shaven face!

ahhhhh i'm going mad!

see Zobag it's what I was saying the present is always haunted by the absent.

Surely Marx wouldn't like to be given a gift with the implication of purchase and the hierarchy implied. He'd want to work for everything he had, rather than sit around while others gave him stuff...

If Marx had had a problem with hierarchy, we wouldn't have Marxists, would we.

Happy Birthday to the Moor.

Maybe one day I'll read Capital.

When they finally throw me in jail, I'll be bored enough to read it.

If you're in Heaven, I'm sure there's no manual labor. Never did suss that out, did ye?

How about a nose-hair trimmer? Or 1000 Pounds (in money)? Then he could of gotten out of Engels debt. (My guess is that he had a critique or two against Engels but needed to keep the money rolling in).
