never been a good listener, one of my wife's favourite quotes is "i told you weeks ago" i have to take her word for it, as i more than likely wasn't listening, i never listen to the actual words another says in any conversation, only the silence when they stop talking, so that i can start, who cares what the topic is, i have my own running in my head while they are speaking, yes, if your speaking to me, watch my eyes, you'll see them glaze over after ten seconds, take a hint and shut up, i've probably got something far more important, relevent or witty to say, and you might learn something. even if its only the realisation that its not worth wasting your time talking to me. 99 times out of 100, i couldn't care less about the person or subject your talking about, hence the reason i'd make a lousy politician, i just don't care!!!!!
was that the last word? don't answer, thats a rhetorical question, i already know the answer, besides, i'm not that interested!!!!
