# That word
I always saw as 'ogliarch'. It's only very recently I've realized I got it wrong.

# I had to look it up : Oligarch may refer to: A member of an oligarchy

# A word rarely used in English before Russia became a market economy.
But it was used in George Orwell's 1984, which, if you haven't read it already, I strongly reccomend you read.
Because it's fucking great.

# I admit now that Orwell is great
this opinion has changed from my opinion of a few years ago, when I used to think Orwell wasn't great. My opinion changed because I read a bunch of Orwell. He isn't completely right about everything there is, but I can forgive him for that because I'm so wonderfully magnanimous.

# I read 1984 at a time
when I probably didn't need to get any more paranoid. It quite fucked me up, actually.

# Same here!
It fucking crippled me for the rest of my life. Nothing can be easy ever again.
A life of stickin' it to the man is often a tad tricky.

# Also:
I remember a description I read of Vic and Bob's personas... Vic is like an enormous shallow lake, and Bob is like a small but incredibly deep well.
I don't know what it means but it's true.
