[ST (Jul 17, 2005)]
At the promenade couples meet and interact for a little chat. Those bits of small talking always seem to me staged in genuinely cheerful attitudes, as they develop. When these same couples split each one of them ponders about the interaction which just happened, the conversation that just took place. And comparisons are made upon a solid basis of harmless criticism and petty envy. A person I barely know said this once aloud among four attentive listeners - the distinctive feature of our local personality is meanness. Somehow we all agreed, despite the implicit accusation in our nods.
