Musings on a recent Internet forwarding

There are some amazing parallels between applying to a college and my life.

I am a dynamic figure, often seen scaling walls and  crushing ice. I have been known to remodel train  stations on my lunch breaks, making them more  efficient in the area of heat retention. I translate  ethnic slurs for Cuban refugees, I write  award-winning operas, I manage time efficiently.  Occasionally, I tread water for three days in a row. 

I am a dynamic figure, often seen scaling walls and  crushing ice. I have been known to remodel homes on my lunch breaks, making them more  efficient in the area of video production. I translate ethnic slurs on Indian scientists, I write  award-winning research papers, I manage time efficiently.  Occasionally, I try to tread water for three days in a row. 

   I woo women with my sensuous and godlike trombone  playing, I can pilot bicycles up severe inclines  with unflagging speed, and I cook Thirty-Minute  Brownies in twenty minutes. I am an expert in  stucco, a veteran in love, and an outlaw in Peru.   

  I try to woo women with my sensuous and godlike humor, I can pilot bicycles up severe inclines  with unflagging speed, but I can't cook Thirty-Minute,  or Brownies in twenty minutes. I am not an expert in  stucco, but a veteran in love, and a possible outlaw in Peru.   

Using only a hoe and a large glass of water, I once  single-handedly defended a small village in the  Amazon Basin from a horde of ferocious army ants. I  play bluegrass cello, I was scouted by the Mets, I  am the subject of numerous documentaries. When I'm  bored, I build large suspension bridges in my yard.  I enjoy urban hang gliding. On Wednesdays, after  school, I repair electrical appliances free of  charge. 

Using only some under-table payments, I once  single-handedly defended a small school in Roorkee from a horde of ferocious clerks. My computer plays amazing music, I encourage scouting  of all good looking women, and I am the subject of numerous rejections. When I'm  bored, I build large programs on my computer.  I enjoy urban hang gliding. Periodically, after  work, I repair electrical appliances free of  charge. 

  I am an abstract artist, a concrete analyst, and a  ruthless bookie. Critics worldwide swoon over my  original line of corduroy evening wear. I don't  perspire. I am a private citizen, yet I receive fan  mail. I have been caller number nine and have won  the weekend passes. Last summer I toured New Jersey  with a traveling centrifugal-force demonstration. I  bat 400. My deft floral arrangements have earned me  fame in international botany circles. Children trust  me.  

 I am an realist videographer, an abstract analyst, and a  caring bookie. Critics worldwide swoon over my  original line of thinking. I do  perspire some times. I am a public author, but I don't receive fan  mail. I have never been caller number nine and have yet to win  the weekend passes. Twenty years ago I toured New Jersey  as a scientist at Bell labs. I  chess at 2200. My deft paper arrangements have driven my family nuts. But most children trust  me.  

 I can hurl tennis rackets at small moving objects  with deadly accuracy. I once read Paradise Lost,  Moby Dick, and David Copperfield in one day and  still had time to refurbish an entire dining room  that evening. I know the exact location of every  food item in the supermarket. I have performed  several covert operations for the CIA. I sleep once  a week; when I do sleep, I sleep in a chair. While  on vacation in Canada, I successfully negotiated  with a group of terrorists who had seized a small  bakery. The laws of physics do not apply to me. 

I can answer nitpicks with small moving issues with deadly accuracy. I once read HTML explained by Microsoft press in one day and  still had time to refurbish my home work desk  that evening. I know the exact location of every  computer wire in the comp USA. I have performed  several covert operations for the CIO. I sleep once  a week; when I do sleep, I sleep in a chair. While  on vacation in India, I successfully negotiated  with a group of clerks who had seized a small school. The laws of bureaucratic wisdom do not apply to me. 

 I balance, I weave, I dodge, I frolic, and my bills  are all paid. On weekends, to let off steam, I  participate in full-contact origami. Years ago I  discovered the meaning of life but forgot to write  it down. I have made extraordinary four course meals  using only a mouli and a toaster oven. I breed  prizewinning clams. I have won bullfights in San  Juan, cliff-diving competitions in Sri Lanka, and  spelling bees at the Kremlin. I have played Hamlet,  I have performed open-heart surgery, and I have  spoken with Elvis.

 I balance, I weave, I dodge, I frolic, and my bills  are all paid. On weekends, to let off steam, I  participate in Internet surfing. Recently I  discovered the meaning of life but for who lit the big bang match. I can't make even 1 course meals  using even the full kitchen. I breed  potentially prizewinning essays. I have won North American bridge championship at Las Vegas, stood up to visiting Petrosian, and  survived fencing and sky-diving. I have played the boss of CIO (Campus India Organization),  disc jockey at WRUR, and I have  spoken with his supreme highness, Dr. Jerome Feldman.

 But I have not yet gone to college.

But I have even taught a university with no results..
