At times life feels like one big experiment. I've gathered my background information, formed my hypotheses, run through my procedures, checked out my data, but I never make much headway in the direction of a conclusion.

So I disregard the data. Revamp my procedures. Throw out the hypotheses.

All that's left is what you already know. There's only so much you can prove, and little more that you can predict.

It could be that I'm just not cut out for this scientist thing. But I might as well try...
