This has been in my head all day when I think about this thread.

What does Tim mean when he says, "I can do NOTHING to make this happen."?

Hello. I am Tim Palmieri. I live in Connecticut in the United States. I go
to East Haven High School. I would like to be a professional guitarist.
I know Eddie Van Halen. I would like the U.S. to be controlled by facists
and no war. I can do nothing to make this happen. Thank you.
Tim Palmieri


Does this refer to the US being controlled by facists? No War? Knowing Eddie Van Halen? or being a professional guitarist?

Is this even a serious statement or is it written with a sarcastic tone meant jokingly?

It has made me chuckle all day when I think of Tim saying this, of course, I only make this with the Tim I know, not the Tim of high school. I don\'t know but I had to get that out in the open.

From the looks of some of the sentences with a similar tone in other\'s letters, ,I bet it was something like

"What can you do to make the world a better place?"

or

"What can you do to make these things happen?"

Step 1:  We admitted we were powerless over the Breakfast and that our lives had become unmanageable.
Step 2:  Came to believe that TPalms could restore us to sanity.
Step 3:  Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to The Breakfast, as we understood them....
