Fixin' to die


Don't sing the blues before you know the rules.

How about Constant Sorrow, and having trouble all your days? Wouldn't be no blues if you said "I am a man of being sad a lot of the time, but on the other hand I'm looking forward to the Picabia opening"

True enough, but don't you see this is exactly how the Blues is holding Britain back? If we get rid of the outdated concept of Constant Sorrow and embrace flexible working, we can have three people being sorrowful for eight hours a day each, creating two new jobs. Similarly, how about having trouble for just three days a week, enabling a jobshare arrangement?

I think your emphasis is wrong. Far from focussing on sorrow, we should have a "cheerfulness culture" in which we ask what people can do to buck themselves up. Rights, responsibilities, appease the shareholders etc. Pip pip.
