OK X, perhaps I've had enough fun with that post. But I have to admit, I don't think I know anyone in real life as boastful as you sound in that post. The self-admiration was striking. It struck me as pure Cassius Clay without the facetiousness.

I know you are proud of your accomplishments, as most of us are with our own, but to repeatedly call yourself "gifted" really makes me wonder. Isn't that kind of assessment up to others to make?

Perhaps you missed this quote from Nicholas of the Cross in your vast humanities studies, "In humility alone lies true greatness".
