  1. Of course, what we really like is news of pratfalls and embarrassing disasters. But yes. Even us ordinary folk can be special to somebody if we are lucky.

  2. Do you feel extraordinary? I don’t. I don’t think I know anyone who isn’t just a regular person, nothing extraordinary about them. Maybe the word extraordinary need to be defined. This just seems like another ego trip to me. Why do we have to even think about being extraordinary? Maybe it’s just me. I’m fine the way I am. Extraordinary seems out of my league and too weird.
