America's Got Talent, one of my TV favorite shows, is back and I am pleased but also humbled. I love to watch the variety of acts, some really good, some really awful, but all entertaining in their own ways. But at the same time, I find myself measuring my abilities against theirs. Dog trainer? No. Stand-up comedian? No. I actually did a comedy routine once and got laughs but that used up all my comic material from my only source, my grandchildren. Sing in a choir? No. I can, however stand in a choir and move my lips. Swing from a trapeze? No. Dance weirdly? No. Play the piano? No. I can't even crack walnuts with my butt cheek (although I admit I've never tried that one). I guess I'll just have to stick to my one great talent, being an audience.
