Now you need to win the "Best Past-Life Poet" competition. Come on, Arthur. You could be Benjamin Franklin. This is the type of dream he would have had!

hahaha, this was great fun, but really, would you want this to actually happen? So much honor in one night would probably make me feel too worried about all my friends not making it and then it would turn into a nightmare for me. All that aside, I love this one and the response to your wife. you are a wise man!! (but do you really think she would buy that too? LOL)
