Does it have personal goals? You could put down avoiding self-evaluation.
If it did have personal goals, I would be forced to blurt something unfortunate like: To firm up the cheese butt. Or: to reduce the read me pile on the floor by 8 inches of height.
I'm very good at what I do, though frequently bored. I keep my brain in the game with amusing scenarios and musings about baseball, hard boiled mysteries and fandom.
Weirdly, these skills sometimes avail me in my job. Lots of random factoids and connections avail me (can you believe I was the only person in a meeting of 8 literate, bookish, educated people who knew who Seymour Hersch is?). But, not so much that my goofing off is a work asset.

Maybe they confused him with Seymour Hersh?
disclaimer: I had no idea who the guy was until I googled. But I don't describe myself as bookish, so I'm okay.
I was thinking the photos didn't do the glare justice.
Not so much. Awfully shiny. He said he went to PS 70-something in the Bronx, but got lucky and got spotted by some talent scouts that DeNiro sent in. Dropped out of school at 5th grade and did the biz and homeschooling thing. Also, computer nerd. Lots of people were taking photos and getting autographs post-Q&A, so undoubtedly more photos will show up on the interwebs soon.

How lucky does Frank Capra IV really have to get? Is PS 70 inner city?

That's what I was wondering. Either they didn't get much out of the connections or he's got a story he's telling.
lori who was charming? who was stupid? tell tell.
ok, I had not done anything on the fitday site since March 2003! wow.

Let me rephrase. In the context of discussing the source and possible permissioned use of Abu Ghraib prison photos, can you believe...? (Hersh is the guy who broke that story in the New Yorker, and on 60 minutes.)
Well, Capra III isn't like a mogul or anything. But I still wouldn't put it past him being from Riverdale, the fancy part of the Bronx, but still using "Bronx public school" as code for "street."

Doesn't seem too bad for an NYC school.
