Brad,

I've seen "Upstairs and Downstairs".

Apart from it becoming a great hit with Americans, it conclusively showed that those below the stairs had a great time. I think they got Wednesday afternoon off as well with no reduction in pay.

If it's so good down there that you decide to be one of
them, send me a postcard!

Their physician, Dr. Karl Abraham, in 1907 reported the
case of a woman who exhibited neurotic symptoms because
she felt being a servant was not good enough for her.
Abrfaham lamented that she avoided getting well by
excaping into a better job where she was happier
with her lot in life, instead of working through
her problem and learning to adapt to being a servant.

If you decide to be a pre-WWI Polish Coal Miner,
Dr. Abraham will deny your attempt to weasel out of
your job with a disability claim, too.

Damn the man (and all his ilk)!

Enjoy! (But keep it to yourself, don't try to
share it with me!)
