    Daphne,

    Is this the guy who tells us to ‘think outside the box’? Think he should have left his socks inside the box.

    Love the pose of all three, are they sitting on bed sheets?

    I told you he was a w****r. But all I got was a torrent of abuse.

  3. Leo Said says:

    Exquisite Fashionable Lateral Thinking provokes reflections worthy of a Maltese genius.

  4. Tonio Farrugia says:

    Reminiscent of the pink socks worn by the flamboyant Italian showman Cristiano Margioglio at the last edition of Ciak si Canta. His fellow male presenters had a field-day with them.

  5. Tim Ripard says:

    Maybe he’s crewing in the America’s Cup…

  6. Chris says:

    I see he has no hat on.

    His coloured socks are his “signature”. I attended a seminar of his, at the end of which he asks the participants to write a question. He then boastfully says that he always gets three questions about his coloured socks.

    Did I or my colleagues get anything out of the seminar? Not really. Quite honestly, I was put off by his claims of saving millions for this and that company by his thinking methods. However, he sure knows how to sell himself. Great marketeer.

    Parallel thinking creates nonparallel colours!

  9. Dunstan says:

    Oh so cool! He was `socking `it to them…laterally!

  10. Anna says:

    What was he thinking of ?

  11. Leonard (that's it) says:

    George Best liked wearing red socks because they didn’t show the blood from repeated kicks by defenders.

  12. Marku says:

    I still don’t get what is supposed to take place in this presumptuously-named “palace of thinking”.

  13. Tony Pace says:

    Right, I am going to delve into dangerous territory here, but I seriously think that the biggest con to world thinking must be Prof. Debono. Millions have been taken in by him, including what possibly could be the foremost international universities. But why is it that everytime I attended one of his lectures I always got the impression that this guy sells himself beautifully, being a master at exploiting the concept that perception is 90% of the game. For that alone he deserves international success but for the rest of it..? I have never heard any lecturer blow his own trumpet as much as this man. Does he need to with all his success?

    Hear hear Tony Pace!

    [Daphne – Excuse me, Gerald – but isn’t Tony Pace one of my coterie of right-wing conservative fascists with blue eyes?]

  15. Graham C. says:

    Marku, The palace of thinking is a place for people who lack that ability.

  16. Andrea says:

    Tony Pace,

    I knew you were ‘Ol’Blue Eyes’ reincarnation.

  17. Tony Pace says:

    You’re confusing me guys. Must be old (insomma not so old) age!

    [Daphne – Gerald thinks that 90% of people on this blog are conservative right-wing fascists and blue-eyed boys.]

  18. Tony Pace says:

    Ah Gerald, so what happened to the liberal, left-wing brown-eyed boys? They obviously cannot read or write.
    You mention ONE, I mean just ONE site which promotes a healthy intelligent (and very often tongue-in-cheek) debate on contemporary issues, other than D’s and you can buy my vote (wink, wink)!
