Hearing The Walk (acoustic) -- The Cure

As if You Didn't Have Enough Angst


Find out what famous people had accomplished when they were your age. And try not to worry. I'm sure you're just a late bloomer.

As I once told a friend of mine when she turned 25, "At your age, Buddy Holly was already dead!" Which is an accomplishment I'll feel just fine delaying as much as possible, thanks very much.

    Ahh, thanks John. Pam (AOL journals) was able to resolve part of the bullet problem. Appears to be a caching problem ... Thanks for trying to assist!

    I have them when I look at my page. And yet I don't see them on *other* people's pages. So maybe they're only things we can see. Weird. I'll ask.

    "AT AGE 26: Gon Yangling memorized more than 15,000 telephone numbers in Harbin, China."
    Um. Ok. I finally know my purpose in life! Now where is that phone book...I got exactly 1 month and 20 something days to accomplish something similar OR better before I turn the ripe old age of 27! Yikes. Turn off the phone and disconnect AOL, I got some memorizing to do!! ~Shelli P. (that was way to fun John! Thanks!)
