As the old adage goes: *"There are three kinds of people in this world: the wills, the won'ts, and the can'ts. The first accomplish everything, the second oppose everything, and the third fail in everything."* Anonymous

I've been told this proverb was used as a motivational text in the late 19th century.

Well, we are now in the 21st century; perhaps I will add three more: *The buffoons, the buffoonery and the earnest.*

**What would your three be? Be nice now!**
