Good little inspirational speech though, sarge.

That alone made me want to get it sooner. What happened? Let’s just say I need to work on it more and wait until after I finish one other assignment. It’s hard to stand out from millions of writers, so always being on time or early was a way for me to stand out. I’ve heard from many editors who said they rarely meet someone who can make deadlines like I can.

Must. Slow. Down.

@ Jamie – This one’s for you, bro:

@Bob LOL! Absolutely. In fact, I can’t believe Peter Jackson didn’t work in “Where There’s a Whip, There’s a Way” People threw popcorn at me when I started singing it in the theater.

I see a very nice sideline opportunity…

@ Dustin – Thanks for stopping in! Isn’t it amazing how all of these teachers hate students?

You make a good point about audience. I’d footnote that, though. On average, human beings have enough in common with one another that simply sharing experiences adds value to the conversation.

And, yeah. We tell our kids (and our readers) the truth, even when it isn’t a happy truth, because we want them to succeed.

@ Trisha – I did the same thing – until I got to grad school. Then I learned that the night before wasn’t going to cut it.

@ Joel – At least you took an accounting class. Most of us are self-taught.

@ Karen – Thank you for your kind words.

@ Bamboo – Thank you, too. I’m glad it resonated.

@ Jamie – Are you as much of a geek as I am in that when you hear the phrase “rings true” you think of the Rankin Bass version of The Hobbit? Maybe it’s just me.

Love this post, Bob. Personally, I stink at the math, and lose a lot of time making sure I’ve done it right. I probably should hire someone to help me out in that department. My Accounting class at uni was another one I barely passed!
