Everything comes full circle.

As video grabs bring in details of Muammar Gaddafi's opulent underground bunker in Tripoli and his numerous palatial shelters, one thing that becomes certain is man's greed for riches. We're witness to the same old story when Romania came tumbling out of Caeucescu's clutches or when Saddam fell out of power in Iraq.

The commonality in all these cases is the most striking aspect of life's vagaries. The people who rode to power or siezed power under the garb of fighting corruption and sleaze, finally got blown away for following the same methods that they once abhorred!

Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely!

Tailpiece.

I still can't fathom as to why people have faucets and other fixtures in their bathrooms - er, rest rooms - made of gold. Do they help in, anyways, to relieve their woes from constipation or loose bowels?
