Haha look what Ger dug up:

Accomplishments

I painted a picture � green sky � and showed it to my
mother.
She said that�s nice, I guess.
So I painted another holding the paintbrush in my teeth,
Look, Ma, no hands. And she said
I guess someone would admire that if they knew
How you did it and they were interested in painting
which I am not.

I played clarinet solo in Gounod�s Clarinet Concerto
With the Buffalo Philharmonic. Mother came to listen
and said
That�s nice, I guess.
So I played it with the Boston Symphony,
Lying on my back and using my toes,
Look, Ma, no hands. And she said
I guess someone would admire that if they knew
How you did it and they were interested in music
which I am not.

I made an almond souffl� and served it to my mother.
She said that�s nice, I guess.
So I made another, beating it with my breath,
Serving it with my elbows,
Look, Ma, no hands. And she said
I guess someone would admire that if they knew
How you did it and they were interested in eating
which I am not.

So I sterilized my wrists, performed the amputation,
threw away
My hands and went to my mother, but before I could
say
Look, Ma, no hands, she said
I have a present for you and insisted I try on
The blue kid-gloves to make sure they were the right
size.

Oddly intriguing:

Asperger's Syndrome


It's ludicrously easy to bypass the expiry of Norton Antivirus subscriptions - just change the date.

Why didn't I think of that?


Bah my Warcraft 3 and Age of Mythology CDs are spoilt. At least I'm still within the 1 week window the man gave me. I hope he's open today.
