What is the one thing that you absolutely cannot do?

For me, it's math of any kind.

Athletics of any kind. Except for dodgeball; for some reason I was always a natural at that.

"Do you know what pledge time is, Andrew"? said the PBS Executive. "Yes", Lloyd Webber replied. "My 50th birthday special must be one program that gets done a lot." "No", mused the man from PBS heedlessy. "Not so much. Our Stephen Sondheim Carnegie Hall concert. That's a big one." Spoons, forks and knives seemed suddenly to suspend their motion in horror, all around the table.

Nothing precious, plain to see, don't make a fuss over me. Not loud, not soft, but somewhere inbetween. Say sorry, just let it be the word you mean.

I can't and I wish I could...

Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be enbered with your old nonsense. ~ Emerson

Interestingly enough, my friend Mike works at the Gap and while folding clothes yesterday, hit himself in the nether regions with one of the sensors. I laughed for hours when he told me that one.

Anyway, mine are math, sports, men, and doing things on time. And authority figures.
