The solution to all my problems

Okay, it's no secret that Ray Bradbury is my freakin' hero, right? Right up there with Miyazaki and Verne and Jesus, right? So a brief glance at his wikipedia article shows something very revealing. Go ahead, give it a look-see.

Keep reading. See the part where he reveals his astonishing secret? The source of all his awesome power? Here, I'll read it to you again:

"He also attributes his lifelong daily writing habit to the day in 1932 when a carnival entertainer, Mr. Electrico, touched him with an electrified sword, made his hair stand on end, and shouted, 'Live forever!'"

DUDE. Now I know how to become totally awesome. Next carnival that comes into town, I am golden.
