Astonishing
No school run today so I squeezed in a 6.5km run in KLCC park before work. Nothing too astonishing about that but...
The radio call-in subject this morning was why some women cannot leave their house without make-up. One woman called in to say that she has to wear make-up outside "in case I am mistaken for being a maid" - !!!!!!!!!!! I am stunned by this, but not surprised. I get the impression that maids are generally looked-upon as third-class citizens, if they are lucky enough to be treated as human.
It's World Environment Day today and although I can't confess to doing much to help today in particular, I do think it's a bit funny that a local actress is quoted by the press as saying that she will make "the ultimate sacrifice" by switching-off her Blackberry PDA for the day! Wow - what a contribution!

Yeah, we have progressed to a state of superficial personalities. And that is what we called progress :(
BTW, yeah you can use the article but you need to improve on it like hell ;-)
