Tuesday Tuesday

Nine days til Thailand.

-------------------

Supper was yummy: sliced carrot, cucumber, avocado and sun dried tomato, rolled into crunchy lettuce leaves and rolled into a sheet of nori (seaweed).

Super simple, super crunchy and super delicious.

A colleague today commented: in the US Marines [before going to fight in Vietnam] we were taught how to shoot babies.

Now WHY would anyone share that information???

(the context for the conversation being the woman who had taken a gun with her to church and who shot the gunman because god told her to)

------------------

The other day I was coming home in the evening and someone had fallen down the stairs at the station, cracking open their skull. Well, from their lack of movement and flow of blood I'm assuming that's what had happened. So, a member of station staff was 'looking after' them while the ambulance was coming and another person was also kneeling down and looking concerned.

What got me though was the crowd of onlookers. Why do people stand around staring at accidents when there is nothing they can do. That kind of voyeurism makes me uneasy. But not as uneasy as someone in the room telling me they were taught how to shoot babies.
