have you ever watched when someone did
what you've done a thousand times,
and never got quite right?  and said nothing?

when the kite doesn't just leap into the sky,
when the boat sinks, and the face just says "why?"
never say, "don't try that again."  no, not ever.

watch a "pro" sometime, when you have the time.
they move slowly and don't think of "can't."
and it doesn't sink - except in golf.

hey, i never claimed this "sanity" thing.
it's overrated anyway...tom

Oh yes often...does it bother me? Yes sometimes...but most of the time I just applaud their talent. Its like writing...some days you strain to get one word to make sense, and others it just flows... you always make me think!!

I stay a little close to insanity so sanity doesn't jump out and claim me...

Enjoyed this, Tom!
