watching it all fade away

the thing about mr koh is that he gets you to think, to delve deeper, to not take things at face value.

and i've been ruminating about the things that we discussed over dinner over a week ago.

one of which is my admission that i'm no social butterfly. i'm hermit or recluse, but i'm not the person that others will come to and talk. this i'm sure, and comfortable with.

but recently, a snide little voice in my head added: well, how can you be, a social butterfly, when even those that you care(d) about refuse to talk to you about their lives?

touché.

anyhow, i saw this comment made by mr barack obama on mrs sarah palin which is absolutely hilarious, saying that he has great respect for small-town mayors.

'they are the one who trim trees, and make sure the portholes are filled, and get the garbage cleared.'.

ouch.
