In 1965 Vietnam seemed like just another foreign war

Do you ever read those articles with titles like "Three Easy Ways To Revolutionise Your Day" or "Ten Simple Steps To Kick-start Your Life"? Or, worse, anything involving a weird old tip from a mom.

Do you find them ultimately rather disappointing, because if our day could really be revolutionised in easy ways we'd all have done it already?

I present, in contrast, an article I've just re-read and enjoyed for a second time: the complete and logical guide to winning at your own life in 19 super difficult steps.

Do not read if you dislike gratuitous and repetitive swearing :)

Right, yes. That's the sort of thing I agree with, but am only really appreciating now it's reminding me of lessons learned first-hand, if that makes sense.
