Perfection breeds procrastination, which breeds failure.
Stop trying to be perfect.
No time for procrastination....failure awaits you.

It is hard not to speculate, but if wrong, it just makes all of us look as bad as those on the "right"...

(1,066 posts)Her statement was just that the person identified was her son, the journalists who called had his address from the police, as this was well after they had raided his apartment, the parents own his apartment, so the journalists probably did a routine check on who owns the apartment to get more info and realized it was his parents.
So it is not surprising that she said that is him, as they had at least his name and his address.

That really doesn't sound like someone with all his marbles.
