Onemunki says: We live in a world of genuine tragedy, starvation and terror. So, after hearing stories of cruise line passengers complaining at the air conditioning breaking down, what stories of sheer single-minded self-pity get your goat?

History of evasion in Greece
Nearly forty years ago, during my first holiday in Greece, I asked why so many buildings still had steel reinforcing bars sticking out of the roofs. I was told this was so they could avoid paying taxes on them by claiming they were unfinished and "one day" would have another floor added. What hope is there for a country where people can get away with this behaviour.
