I miss my coffee talk

I cannot say it any better; I have to resort to plagiarism....

An extract from The Zahir, Paulo Coelho:-
"The most important thing in all human relationships is conversation, but people don't talk anymore, they don't sit down to talk and listen. They go to the theatre, the cinema, watch television, listen to the radio, read books, but they almost never talk. If we want to change the world, we have to go back to a time when warriors would gather round a fire and tell stories."

wei, i believe the last coffee talk was over crabs... where i had this bad tummy ache. hahaha, that was prob 4 months back?!!!

have you ever thought, what do you need to spur an engaging chit-chat?
e.g:
1) topic of discussion
2) trust
3) non-judgemental
4) plenty of chit chat lubricant(i.e beer,wine,cocktails...)
5) respect
6) l i s t e n i n g skills
.....etc.
