4. Saturday afternoon, my kid damn near refused to perform at his recital out of fear of failure.

He summoned all his courage, changed his mind, wore his suit--and he was the LAST on the program.

And damn if he didn't play the clarinet BEAUTIFULLY.

Therein lies the problem; I'm fairly certain Obama could have and I don't see much evidence that he made the effort.

It's not so much the failure as the lack of effort.

Edit: weird capitalization for which I have no explanation. :shrug:
