The insanity of sit and gos

Trying to be successful at sit and gos is a form of insanity. It's a losing proposition on its very face. However, the only way to be successful at them is first to believe that you can be successful at them. Since only someone who's a little insane would believe this, the inescapable conclusion is that you actually must be a little insane in order to beat the insane odds :-) It a variation on Joseph Heller's Catch-22.

In case you missed it, I just admitted that I think I can be successful at sit and gos. This proves two things:

1. I believe in myself
2. I'm a little insane :-)

Here's how I did on Saturday night:
