    Over there >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

    It’s worth remembering that history in itself is biased. History is written by people, people are biased.

    The Bias Rule
    “This rule says that every source is biased in some way. Documents tell us what the creator of the document thought happened, or what the creator wanted others to think happened. Historians know that even eyewitnesses to an event tell different stories about what happened, influenced by their biases, loyalties, personal experiences, etc.

    Biases and opinions tell us important things about the past and can help shed light on both cultural and individual prevailing attitudes of the time. For example, consider the diary of a southern plantation owner, and the diary of one of his slaves. Each would certainly be biased and have very different opinions, but neither is less valid, and both help us gain a better understanding of the situation.

    Remember, just as eyewitnesses have biases, so do historians. Bias is usually not intentional, but historians are not free from bias and a selective retelling of the facts.”

    What’s the time Mr Wolf …..?

    Yeah, yesterday you said
    You had yesterday for sure
    And tomorrow when the sun shines
    Tomorrow is all yours

    But just this once
    Give me what I really want
    Give me a choice
    And give me now
    Not tomorrow not when
    Give me now now now
    Not yesterday not then
    I want now now now
    Not never not forever
    I want now

    So go and think of a letter
    Between T and V
    Yeah, that’s the kind of idiot choice
    You’re giving me
    I’ll go and think of any letter
    Between T and V
    And if I don’t want U
    You don’t get me
    And if I don’t want U
    You don’t get me
    Don’t get me

    And if I don’t want U
    You don’t get me
    And if I don’t want U
    You don’t get me

    Yeah yesterday you said
    You had yesterday for sure

    Talking of wolves ….

    There is a quote in the bible …

    ” beware of false prophets that come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves” Gospel according to Matthew …also in Aesop’s fables

    But the one I like the best is ….

    ” the only thing worse than a wolf in sheep’s clothing…is a sheep in sheep’s clothing…

    Whenever you do ask anyone they either laugh, smile or are extremely vague …..
