See, there's a fine line between genius and crazy. If someone has great talent, and convert the potential into gold, you love 'em. However, there's nothing more frustrating than to watch talent being wasted.

I can't explain, but hope you get what I mean.Smoochyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15493520112643765542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23119000.post-39662732218977878532008-09-09T01:21:00.000+05:302008-09-09T01:21:00.000+05:30hmm...ironic, since I am reminded of a comment you...hmm...ironic, since I am reminded of a comment you made during the world cup (football) as to liking the professionalism (work-man-like approach) of France and trashing the flamboyance of Brazil. I thought you would like Nadal cos of that, and also since I don't like the bugger, by default I assume you like him :PBikashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05220415487630682379noreply@blogger.com
