continuing the hate tirade

People who think that power, money or fame can replace good old friendships also fall into that aforementioned list. Which brings to mind an interesting turn of conversation i had with a dear friend yesterday. While rounding off our talk, she asked me "Do you mind if i send you interesting jokes thorugh the sms?" and i said, "no, i don't" to which she replied.."i usually ask beforehand because some people may not like it." And i said..."sure. no problem, as long as you are not sending me stuff every two minutes, it's fine." 

The point of the story being, simple courtesy can go a long way in deepening a bond. that is what irritates me about so many sophisticates who claim to be intellectual iconoclasts, but who can't differentiate between the lefts and the rights of decency.
