So he said, ever since I can remember, I have always felt invincible;
unbreakable even. This feeling is not there all the time though. Like superman,
some villain may have kryptonite and I may feel vulnerable. That villain could
be a person or a situation. But, just like superman, I prevail in the end just
before the credits roll up.
Lately the kryptonite is powerful and is possessed by many
villains.
First I missed my flight by a whole day. With no clue whatsoever, I even call the airline to complain and it takes about 5 minutes for them to make me understand that my flight was for the day before.
Then I get here 2 days late and, after a glowing introduction, my presentation bombs out in a style only Bill Gates would understand from his days launching dodgy software.

As in any good episode of superman, it usually gets worse
before it gets better. Is it going to get any worse? How much
worse can it get. Today it was the University of Liverpool and the department
of Chemical and Microbiology. Easy to explain away the glitch using big IT
words. But next week it is the University of Oxford Computer Science
professors. My guess is that the
kryptonite will be found in the content. The professors will be frowning and
trying to make up excuses for me.
She says she would like to be the hot chic at the end when I am in this mood.
