"The guard at the shop was taken by surprise and could not retaliate in time." - NST

It's a beautiful notion, no? That the person you pay good money to safeguard your property and/or belongings was "taken by surprise" by the very threat he is supposed to be prepared for. Could not retaliate in time? That's because he was sleeping on the job! Countless times have I walked by goldsmith shops only to see the guard falling asleep whilst hugging his gun as if it were a pillow. Seriously... That same shop was robbed twice in a span of two years. Fire the guard!

In all honesty, I think that the only thing you get out of security devices is peace of mind. You can spend a lifetime of savings installing top-of-the-line anti-theft equipment to protect your lifetime of savings but at the end of the day, if someone wants to take it, he/she will find a way. If someone found a way to make it, someone can find a way to break it.

Anyway, I'm a little bored at work... And I'm feeling all fuzzy inside looking through people's Facebook profiles and stumbling across recent wedding photos. *Wide smile* I may have known them when they were still running away from cooties and may also find it way weird to see them in their suits and their flowing white dresses but still... So sweet! *WIDE SMILE* I love weddings...

Word of the day: To go with the flow is the lazy person's excuse and a girl's prerogative.
