"Oh, wearisome condition of humanity,
Born under one law, to another bound;
Vainly begot, and yet forbidden vanity,
Created sick, commanded to be sound."

They were funny for about 15 minutes when I was 10.
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able?<br />Then he is not omnipotent,<br />Is he able but not willing?<br />Then whence cometh evil?<br />Is he neither able or willing?<br />Then why call him god?

You could probably do the same flat falsetto if you tried.  I can come pretty close, but it hurts my throat.  Sometimes, when I really try, I can get that falsetto briefly.

You could build a time machines, go back and urge yourself to get a job as a castrato ;-)
