Fifteen
Minutes or Five?
In the Livcom competition in Stuttgart
in 2002, I¡¯d planned to say ¡°In Xi¨¤m¨¦n you are never more than a 15
minute walk from a park. But the night before my presentation, the Mayor
of Stuttgart said in a speech, ¡°In Stuttgart, we are never more than
a 5 minute walk from a park.¡±
Talk about stealing one¡¯s thunder! But I stole it back.
During my presentation the next morning, I said, ¡°In Xi¨¤m¨¦n we are
never more than 15 minutes¡¯ walk from a park.¡± As some of the audience
started to snicker I added, ¡°I know the mayor said that in Stuttgart
they are never more than 5 minutes walk from a park, but fortunately for
us, Xi¨¤m¨¦n people don¡¯t have to walk so fast!¡±
The moral? Take life slowly¡and laugh.
