That's it, I am going to crawl under that desk and not come out for a long long
time.  This is the second time in less than a week that my capacity for
craziness and weird did not measure up.  Furthermore in this instance, it
apparently didn't even deserve mention.  The contradiction is too great.  My
head will implode!  I have one group of people telling me I'm too passionate,
aggressive, insensitve, direct, undiplomatic, nieve and other bad things for one
who aspires to greatness and you implying that I can't even match lawyers, and
doctors!  What will become of me!  My children will starve and freeze!  It will
be on your head Mr Poet-Mason, when they implant that chip in my skull and I
become an accountant!

"I have to go to my room now and write in my journal", a quote from that
sarchastic, argumentative, insensitve, arogant fourteen year old, Patrick
Callan.  Damned if I know where he gets it from.  Must be hanging out with a bad
crowd.
