What is more significant? Getting everything you ever wanted or getting everything you ever needed.
Nine months ago (non-maternity related), Vincent was flying back home after attending a wedding somewhere. Suddenly, he asks the flight steward for some beer. Now, they were 20,000 feet above sea level and the steward assumed he was already high. So, the steward comes back and tells Vincent that there's nothing to drink.
Pissed and embarrassed, Vincent decides to take matters into his own dirty lousy hands and goes to the store area, he finds a beer can and then snaps back to the steward-
"This is how you treat your passengers! I admit I'm travelling on a physically disabled discounted ticket (like always) but I'm still a passenger. This is not hospitality at all. You think 'popcorn' is something that grows in a field and makes music."
Then, he opens the door mid-air and throws the crate of beer out of the plane. The story above has no meaning. It's like giving a "tweetment" to a sick bird.
Anyway, it was also the day when Terence beat Patrick over a game of Tekken. Sadly, Terence felt a tight cramp in his right leg which did not feel right at all. After intense hours of continous gaming, he felt a thirst for some beer. So, Patrick volunteered to go out and get some. Two hours went by and he still didn't return. Terence wondered if Patrick had lost his way since he was complaining of a loose stomach and that he only took refuge in places with paper (he did not like using water- please visualize).
Thats when Terence decided that he had to stand up for what he believed in and he, at that point of time, believed in chilled beer. Terence got up, ignoring his cramp. As he stepped out, he saw Patrick lying flat on the street (with a dazzling smile amongst many a broken tooth). It looked as though something hit him on the head but thank goodness, he was wearing a helmet which said "Empty".
By the way, remember the crate of beer that Vincent threw from the aircraft.
Well, it hit Patrick.
It's a small world :-)
PS- This is an old post. Just re-shuffled it because the slot for the month of 'May' was lying vacant.
