And the fireworks die down…
hear ye! hear ye!
Lebaran has passed and the celebrations seem to take a turn for the normalcy of quiet. I love it that way. not dat im anti-social or anythin but i prefer less of a brou-ha-ha on matters. by the way,aidilfitri is a solemn affair in the first place as a time of reflection and forgiveness. too many people get caught up with the necessity of extravagance(not sparing me too but i try to keep it controlled nevertheless).
Had a run in with moral dilemma a couple days back. as a kid,i was brought up to tell the truth as far as possible and be good to others. i have not forsaken those principles in my mind but what happen when an old lady at my work place accidentally pulls a plug which links to a computer dat holds important files (and it is still running by the way) and the rest of the office is questioning around whodunnit and i’m the only one who knows? come on,i respect the elders and she’s a nice auntie who cleans up the place and makes coffee for people and she does not speak a word of english at all.
what did i do? i kept quiet.
quiet…nice.
noise…not nice. rationale explained.
unless my ass is on the line dat is.
and the world is going crazy around us.H5N1 virus.escalating oil prices.bombs over baghdad(still?). and the situation in france reminds me of pages from Frank Miller’s The Dark Knight Returns. maybe the Les Bleus need a vigilante to clamp down on crime. his moniker would be Baguetteman and tagline…."Suck my crumbs,dirtbag!".
Thanks for the spelling check,Marni.Ya such a doll!
Til later
hold on to ya hats.

Donald Trump may say,”You are a nice guy. But You’re Fired.”
