You may even grow to love it. Highly recommended: think beach reading for the geek set. You know, if we spent more time outdoors, unplugged.

I like this to much, I'm definitely making it a shirt. Highest compliment that I know! ;-) I love the play with the words... smart has some consonance with scarred; scarred is close to scared, which also plays a role. Words are so fun. Thanks for sharing! Matt… I like this to much, I’m definitely making it a shirt. Highest compliment that I know! ;-)

I responded that I've just been around and tried so many things. He then came up with a great line for a t-shirt: "I'm not smart, just scarred."

That's why it is less scary? I do agree... it isn't that you are less afraid of failing almost, but more that you know you can pick up the pieces if something bad does happen. Oh, you are killing me... I NEED TO GET MY SHOP DONE. Can someone please make a "more hours in the day" widget? Surely that's Web mashable! ;-) Hi, Jenny,

Fear of failing can be worse than the actual failure -- at least until you fail a few times. Hmm, I think I need to get myself one of those t-shirts ;) Thing is, experience makes failure less scary, so it is easier to learn from.
