Amazing fact of the day

Prince Randian (birth name unknown), born without arms or legs, could shave, write, and paint; roll cigarettes and then light them; and was an accomplished carpenter to boot. He could also speak speak four languages, and he remained married to the same woman his entire life, raising a family of four children.
Kind of puts your petty complaints into perspective, doesn't it.
