Some infidel facts about water
All right then.
To start with the beginning.
Piece one.
Here are some so-called facts for all those still tending to rely on science-based expertise.
Being published on Bloom’s Day, it is, of course, infidel stuff for all those claiming to know that water-shortage in Turkey has been intelligently designed approximately 10.000 years ago.
All my posts "Crushed" by Ingsoc
Spent all blogging time at Crushed by Ingsoc.
But tomorrow night.
Ah, it will be a tiny little story.
About what?
Ah, well, about . . .
a) water and no water,
b) a mayor who is a prime-example for that in some countries no career would fail due to incompetence,
c) a prime minister who does not like people exaggerating
and
d) about people who might soon ask their prime minister the same ... :)

Baykal takes Brecht's advice
According to our absolutely honest and trustworthy source, for approximately 80 per cent of the Turkish people Deniz the Magnificent is the outstanding thinker and theoretican who has fully mastered Atatürk's revolutionary ideas; he is the sagacious leader of his Party and people who is possessed of brilliant wisdom, unusual insight and refined art of leadership; and he is the real leader of the people who has unboundedly lofty virtues.
TDN's Yusuf Kanli seems not able to accept Mr. Baykal's victory. Mr. Kanli is even mocking about Deniz the Magnificent.
But we know better.
Mr. Baykal and his (sic!) CHP won.
Not enough to drive Mr. Erdogan to Kars, where he could work as extra at the revolutionary local theatre, when it is next time snowing.
But - and nobody could deny: Only about 30 per cent more, and Mr. Baykal and his (sic!) Party would even have won the absolute majority.
Now, why did / COULD this not happen?
Officially one could hear all those arguments Mr. Kanli is mocking about.
One should not blame him, though. He does not know better. He CAN not know better.
Fortunately we can and DO.
According to my closest friend's either omnipresent and absolutely honest and trustworthy source, who's deep throat knows the büyükbaba - not to muddle up with Büyükanit - thus again: who knows the grandfather whose cousin's grandson's aunt knows the sister of a very very influential editor of Cumhurriyet, Deniz the Magnificent has told this extraordinary influential beacon of independant and unbribable Turkish journalism - sub rosa and off the records - the ultimate reason why him and his (sic!) Party would not get - at least - 98,9 per cent of the votes: "The stupid people did not vote for us. But at the next election WE shall turn the table. WE elect a new people."
The very very influential editor has not been seen, since. Influenza, it says.

It's as simple as that
It's somehow a pars pro toto for the daily secrets being published.
Ah, and - perhaps - it is about the time you are to be introduced to one of my closest friend's "ceterum censeos":
Banquo knew before
And oftentimes, to win us to our harm,
The instruments of darkness tell us truths,
Win us with honest trifles, to betray’s
In deepest consequence.
In German it sounds even more impressive (and not only because "Death is a master from Germany")
Oft, uns in Elend zu verlocken
Erzählen Wahrheit uns des Dunkels Schergen,
Gewinnen uns durch ehrlich Spiel im Kleinen,
Um uns in größten Dingen zu verraten.
Shakespeare, McBeth 1.,3

Victim of Loneliness
Some ignorant people might not really understand that "loneliness is a very serious thing, and the life of a MP can be a very hard life."
My closest friend immediately took a plane to Rome.
- After all, Signor Mele lives closer to God and his wife than the intelligently designed Republican primate who recently received forgiveness from God and his wife. My old friend Ratze will give this victim of loneliness a private audience and afterwards Signor Mele's reputation will be as immaculate as . . .
- Tetrapilotomos!!!!
. . . hm, . . . as snow from the Aetna. . . . You are worse than the worst chaperone.
Büyükanit or The Name of the General
- Ah, General Büyükanit remembering his people of what party is de facto ruling Turkey?
- General Büyükanit is doing nothing but his duty.
- Which is – according to George Bernard Shaw – what a stupid man always declares when doing something he is ashamed of.
- Let’s be serious, Tetrapilotomos. There have 46,59 per cent been voting for the AKP.
- Thus 53,41 per cent voted for a putsch. Which is, by the way, bigger a margin than George Bush once could let his little brother organise in Florida.
- What are you going to tell, then?
- Nomen est omen, would you agree?
- Hm.
- Nomina sunt omina?
- Yes, yes , ...
- So let's look at Büyükanit.
- Oh, please, Tetrapilotomos, no jokes with names.
- I am just trying to inform those of your readers who unlike you are fluent in spoken and written English, but like you do not speak Turkish.
- We shall speak about this later on; without any emotional blockade and off the records. Go on then.
- All right, to cut it short: büyük means great; anit means memorial; thus, Büyükanit means Great memorial.
- Ah, isn’t it nice to have - even being - one’s own memorial in one’s lifetime?!
- I have not finished, yet. Would you agree that language is magic?
- I do, for the first time after a long interval.
- Now, a Turkish native speaker would perhaps know better. But, one can read General Greatmemorial’s name Büyük-anit and/or Büyü-kanit.
- Interesting. And what does this teach my readers?
- büyü means sorcery / witchcraft / witchery / wizardry; kanit means evidence / proof / argument; thus, Büyükanit means f.e. Evidence of Wizardry.
- And what is the essential inheritent interior essence which is hidden in the root of the kernel of everything, and thus in your words?
- Depending on what spell General Büyükanit will be casting when it’s coming to presidential election, once the Turkish people might build him a memorial – perhaps even in their collective memory.
