      Aspiring Hot Shot Jim Turbert is another case where it's best to just let him say it.

      When there is a new child in a family, people tend to be happy and optimistic. They have high hopes because a baby is a blank slate, and theoretically anything is possible. If the child turns out to be clever, the hopes and expectations get even higher. I can recall my mother telling me that she thought I was going to be an astronaut when I grew up. Little did she know that only around 450 out of the 6.5 billion people on earth have been to outer space. One would need to be extraordinary to make the cut to be on that team. I am not extraordinary. The least ordinary thing about me is that I make self-portraits. The most recent batch is about expectations that my family and friends had for me as a youngster versus the reality of what I have become as a grown up.

      On that note, keep it up Jim. As for everyone else, show us what you've got...enter today.
