and yeah...

i sat my ass on the floor of the kids section in order to read 'the little match girl' (alex).

perhaps you could enlighten me on what exactly about that story pertains to me and/or my postings.

surely i can easily come up with bountiful explinations and interpretations...
but i'd kinda like you to tell me.

to be honest, not really.
perhaps it may stem from some american home-grown contempt.
some would argue that.
for me, the story had an underlying tone.
maybe even THAT is contempt.

blast.
maybe i should quit while i'm ahead.

I didn't read it, but then again I didn't go to the library wink

So I, like shatoushka, was unmoved to tears wink
