Thursday, July 22, 2004 The Thursday Threesome: If it can go wrong... Onesome: If-- Ever hear of that guy Murphy? If you have a story that can add to his legacy, can you share it here? When it comes to things going wrong, I'm actually quite laid back about it. Sure, I can rant and rail as well as the next person, but, things could be much worse. That faux pas you inadvertently blurted out during lunch could have been televised. Just think of all the things that you have done right in your life. One bad day isn't going to kill you. But if you really want to read about other people's misfortunes, see this post. Twosome: it can-- What is it that you can never remember to get correct? Is it which way to turn the wrench to loosen the screw? How about directions to that one restaurant? ...or maybe it's people's names? What is it you call for assistance on? I eventually remember people's names but I'm definitely not as good at it as others. I always remember faces first and for people who don't "resemble" their names, I have the hardest time. Spelling is also one of my weaker points. I would have never made it out of the classroom in a spelling bee. I used to never remember "Wednesday" or "occasion" but I think I got it down now. My current word I'm working on now is "curiosity". I never remember if there's an extra "u" or not. Threesome: go wrong...-- ..and the big finish: what was the last thing you had go so gloriously wrong that all you could do was just stare in awe at the aftermath? I mean, come on, you can tell us When I was much younger: I completely forgot a piece in the middle of a piano recital. This is probably one of the reasons why I hate memorization (see previous post). Public humiliation is a harsh taskmaster. [posted by S. Y. Affolee on 4:57 AM : ]
