"The impossible list is a challenge. This list of impossible things 
contains all the things I ever thought I couldn’t do because it was 
“impossible.” The sort of things that I assumed the cool guys on TV 
only ever got to do. The things I never thought that I would be able 
to do."
 - Joel Runyon
