Time to wake up

In case you've missed it, Justin left me a comment a while ago:

"Okay, the WC has been over for more than a week now. Time to wake up from your drunken stupor and get blogging!"

Indeed.

The other day I went to Chris Patten's book-signing thing. There were no more than two dozens people when I got there, yet I managed to bump into a UM friend, a middle-school friend, an ex-collegue from YA, and an ex-biz partner/supplier - not something I encounter everyday. Anywayz, had a small chat with Patten. He was very charismatic - which isn't surprising given his root as a politician who's risen through elections after elections. I bet if you layout photographs of all US presidential candidates and pick out the most charismatic / leader-like one from each election, you'll have picked the winner 90%+ of the time. Just a thought.
