He claims that he could have been a genius if he'd wanted to be one, but he decided not to be. He did not want to be far above his peers and not fit in, so he did not cultivate his genius potential. I had no idea being genius was a choice, but apparently it is.<BR/>My darling daughter arrives home tonight, and I am thrilled!! She has been practicing erudition for ten weeks now, and she is looking forward to vegging out for awhile. Her brain is very tired.<BR/>Have a good day, Mr. Douglas. Do not even think of eating at Chandra's until you, Jason, Tay, and I dine there in January.
