A few days ago, Bewildered in a midst of 'Worms' and 'Sigmas' on Risk and Uncertainty subject*, I realized that I couldn't grasp the whole idea without getting the substantial concept of risk itself**. Getting back to the definition and concept part, I came across a phrase goes like :


"A Risk is like love."


Uhm. You may blink. Twice....No. Three times would be fine. OK.

Now, go on.

"It's tangible, you can feel it there, but it's hardly measurable."


Uhm. Ok. Now you may grin. =D. Well, I'd say it's quite a fine depiction of risk. The default figure of the writer which was a bold proffesor wearing thick glasses and tight squared-patterned shirt suddenly vanished into air, replaced by a figure of a fine intellect gentlemen. :D Hahaha....Whether you buy it or not, it certainly had managed to ease wrinkles above my brows, and raise the edge of my mouth, a bit.

Yes. It works, for a few while. I suppose the opening statement is aimed at leveraging people's l.o.v.e on the risk subject. Well, having to confront once again with the 'worms and sigmas', I'd say it didn't work, mate. At least for me. Nice try. Keep On Practising...

But Anyway, It might work for you guys, metaphoring a subtle idea into something more tangible. Hehe...

Anyway, figured an image relevant to the subject hung here would be nice : here's an old piece. Just one of my mad-art. Hahaha...took this piece while gasping over a laboratory assignment's--which requires me using an old fashioned typing machine!!--deadline, in groggy eyes..or was I weeping?! (*Thus making the image a lil blurry. pardon*). Taken bout 3 years ago. Here's another evidence that art is my--not last, though--resort in depression. Oh no, no, no, no. it's not my current mood. So don't bother to relate.


"Ouch"


OK,that's all for now. Gotta get back down to the matresses****!! Cheerios!!



*)it's a subject which purpose You-Know-But-Should-Never-Be-Mentioned
**)Hate to say this. though.
***)for fellow TI-ers, you should recall what's the initial purpose of that typing machine, don't you?!

Ehmm...Love is absolutely TANGIBLE!! oh, grab a dictionary that prove the pick of word is not irreasonable : Tangible is Perceptible by the senses especially the sense of touch. Ehm, suppose not by tounghing sense, but it's perceptible by sense.
