Thx Russian_bot. Coming from someone who once was at the other end of my outbursts that's pretty big of you. It's just that I think I'm more effective when I don't let these guys get to me - and I'd like to evolve beyond just juvenile struggles in the mud and wasting emotional energy on it. But like you said, we're all human - so I can't expect perfection from myself (or others for that matter) 100% of the time. The higher up you are on the political pundit food chain, I think the better you are at handling the rift-raft and better identifying when someone's just yanking your chain and you still maintain your cool. It's always the better take.
Stuart Chase - I'll take a look at. I've been fan of Jung's work for quite some time. His autobiography MDR (with the help of the remarkable Aniela Jaffe) was pretty unique.
