Henry Ford
To be honest, I have studied "fordism" and "taylorism" but I don't recall much of it. What I know is that what he says, I absolutely agree, so here goes another quotation from Mr. Ford.
"All Fords are exactly alike, but no two men are just alike. Every new life is a new thing under the sun; there has never been anything just like it before, never will be again. A young man ought to get that idea about himself; he should look for the single spark of individuality that makes him different from other folks, and develop that for all he is worth. Society and schools may try to iron it out of him; their tendency is to put it all in the same mold, but I say don't let that spark be lost; it is your only real claim to importance. "
Right on!!

Golegã
To most of you my dear readers (the three), the name mught sound unspellable, and indeed it is portuguese hence why.
It is a village in the middle of Portugal, considered t be the capital of th Horse.
very year they have a Horse fair, and this year I decided to visit it.
I am not much of a orse fan, nevertheless, I was curious.
Let me say I came back delighted and one of my goals in a medium term future is to have a horse "farm".
Fantastic atmosphere, you cannt imagine the amount of horses there were in the village. Tey close the streets and everybody that owns a horse is invited to bring it on, and ride in the streets, go into the bars, etc all sitting in the horse.
The food as always in Portugal was also great.
I will post a photo here and very soon will be back with the link to my flicker account.
Take care y'all
