Wow. Incredible woman.

 

That's pretty amazing. Fair play to her.

 

To be honest, I always feel slightly bad when people like her are used for inspiration.

"If he/she can do X, so can I!"

So, errr... what precisely is stopping you?

At which point there's thirty seconds of chirping crickets, followed by a cascade of excuses.

Uh-huh.

Not talking "you" as in you, Blade. A more general, abstract "you."

 

Wow. way to turn a positive into a negative.

Inspiration doesn't just magic itself out of thin air.

 

If I could legally change my name to "Eeyore," I'd have done so long ago.

Oh, make no mistake - if somebody is inspired to get off their duff and do something by that video, then more power to them. But I've seen several times how such "inspiration" can turn out, and it left something of a bad taste in my mouth.

Not a knock against anyone in particular - just a general observation.

 

does that mean i can call you eeyore now

 

Sure. Go right ahead.

I'm not changing either my screen-name or avatar though.

 

Good enough.
