Yesterday I prophesied that I would have toast for breakfast this morning. (Suspenseful music for ten seconds) This morning, I had toast for breakfast. (Cheesy 80s synthesized horn blasts) Yay and verily, I speak the truth, and you all know it in your hearts (plus, your standard of evidence is so low that I just cleared it like Sergey Bubka going over a traffic cone). (awed silence) Now get on your knees and start worshiping me. PS Atheists, sorry, you can't play this one. You're all too intelligent. Ghost of Christmas Past : I prophesied that you would write that. Razzle : Haven't heard that one before, so bonus points to you. LBBP : I'm a psychic (possibly psychotic, who knows) prophet. There has to be a rap song in there somewhere.

I will participate in the 2012 olympic games in London. I will be running 3000m steeplechase and I'm confident about winning. In fact the golden medal is already in my pocket. But what I wanted to ask is if the worthless autographs that athletes are signing after a success, are gaining any value as years passing by. I'm thinking about constructing a website through which I will be selling the autographs and other products (like t-shirts and stuff with my face on). How does this idea sound to you. I will avoid beating the world record because I know that the bonuses are much higher in tournaments. Also I plan to follow my colleague's (and good friend) example Sergey Bubka and start beating the record by 1 second each time, in order to beat it numerous times and gain the maximum from.So to sum up, how much profit do you think that I can make out of this bussiness?

Okay, so I am a "varsity" pole vaulter on my track team,but with the way I practiced today I feel like I don't belong. The other two guys on the team were practicing flawlessly while I was sucking it up. I mean like, straddling my pole on the way down and under-planting and even slipping on some attempts.The whole 9 yards... The coach was visibly upset at the way I was performing and he offered some advice, but it was to no avail. I am seriously considering quitting the track team. This is my first year on varsity and I really want to get a letter, but I'm clearly not on the other guys' levels. What should I do?
