What Liz Truss is wanting is a manner of Leadership, with a Capital L. UK PM Boris J. was an example of a poor leader and I wrote that so many times--so again, I was proved correct. I can spot a poor leader a mile away, just as I can spot a good leader, having been to more military schools than one, as well as my own personal understanding and experience of leadership. Also, I have been a CEO, run a business, etc. Mrs. Truss would then greatly contrast with Boris, and frankly the other guy too, who also is no leader. But, Mrs. Truss, could be or I suspect may at least have some real potential or it's already there; but we can't see it yet. The thing has little to do with a TV image, this is just the opposite to that. And note where that "great image" has landed Mr. Boris today. It is a kind of thing that is picked up by the press, in writing, as well as noted by the cameras--if done correctly. Most so-called leaders have no idea what they are doing, and are in way over their head; but pride prevents them and they go on pretending that they are doing anything wrong. Which is too bad; but simply training of a high quality can focus so much, and bring results. It turns a good leader into a great one. There are natural-born leaders, yes; but then again, I can guarantee that each one of them had numerous, excellent instructors. Nowadays, however, as I say, virtually no one is a leader. Virtually every one of them is a pretender. I had followed closely this subject. Often, leaders start strong and then crash and burn--this is the common theme of today. There are exceptions. And the word itself can mean more than one thing to a certain group. When we encounter good leadership, we never forget it, we refer back to it often. At first it is "incredible" and "refreshing" and we are in a sort of state of shock for a while until we adjust to this, strange rare thing called good leadership. For everything else we, shrug our shoulders and say, "...eh".

The 2 most beautiful cities in the world are Berlin and SanFrancisco. Berlin has a soul. You can feel it in places, as if it is there and not there at the same time or just around the corner. This is, I have understood, is because there once was an incredible, magnificent city, which was bombed to oblivion, recently. So, the Berlin I knew was only the new one; but the city is beautiful no matter what. But sadly, like some parts of Poland especially, Berlin is all modern; but it is rebuilt better like the 9-11 area.
Rome was crowded and sort of like what Berlin would have looked like; but I think I have to visit again because there is so much there. The further South I went, the People became more amazing to the point where I became to sort of travel in a haze, occasionally gaining partial consciousness. The whole thing is a dream. I had to turn in my rent-a-car and find money for a return train ticket so I went to the base and received a small monetary grant given to veterans of the Persian Gulf War (victory causes that kind of thing) that had largely gone unused.
Venice was quaint and touristy. I mean, even the city, which reminded me of a Dutch one; but it was just a chintzy city made by super-rich traders (like the Dutch). It was originally placed in the middle of the swamp by the last-surviving Romans who were trying to evade the ever-present Heathen horde.
