'The rate at which a person can mature is directly proportional to the embarrassment he can tolerate.' ~ Douglas Engelbart. I was reading online an article about the most embarrassing moments or things that can happen to a person...and was shocked to see that I could check off more than half of them. Some of them are down right hilarious others contrarily are more mortifying and upsetting. Check them out and see how many you can check off. Also I have a brand new top 5 list and a bonus video from "What In The Web" which you can listen to weekdays at 9:45am. Thanks for checking out the blog.
