Shriek!

I was driving along a highway in Sunway area this morning (as every morning since last week...), singing at the top of my lungs to whatever songs playing on the radio.  Sure enough, the Sunway Pyramid landmark - the lion head, was in view.  Coincidentally, the 'Desert Rose' was on and I felt a little 'Egyptian' - started to image myself in the desert, with camels and people in ancient Egyptian attires surrounding me.

That happened in the short few seconds during the drive until I saw a clump of what looked like soil (sand?) on the road.  My mind, that was already as far away as being in ancient Egypt, immediately thought:

"OMG, the lion head's crumbling down!".

Yeah, I know it's silly, but that's the first thing that came to mind.  Luckily the lion head was still in view, I got a quick look at it, confirmed it was fine and felt relieved.  That was when I remembered that the statue is made of mortar (or something like that) and I was in Malaysia, driving to work!  So I laughed as hard as I could, all the way to office.  ROFL!

My gosh, that poor statue, imagine if the face is really falling off!
