	:-\| I know "sarcasm is the lowest form of wit" ( so they say) but I sometimes can't stop myself lol. What is your 'fault' that you secretly feel is a virtue ? ;-)

	I do like a bit of sarcasm I'm afraid. Sometimes you just have to say it don't you? :-D :-D :-D

	Of course not MC - shopping keeps you sane and gets rid of stress. Much better than meditating ;-)

	Cynisism. Not of 'real' people, but of 'academics' (what - you left school, went to Uni, stayed on at Uni got a Phd and work for the government, advising plebs on how they should live their lives when you've never had a 'proper' job in your life????)and the government - telling us what we 'should' do when you've never so much as stepped in our slippers, let alone walked a mile in our shoes. Basically, those who think they know better than us 'normal' people

	I can never understand sarcasm. Modesty is my fault which secretly I think is a virtue. Shopping, alcohol and beauty are virtuous in moderation. Too much and you become Elizabeth Taylor :-D
