This is the second hardest entry of the month. I'm still not thrilled with my choice. Of course, my lack of lyrical knowledge extremely limits the amount of songs I know of that could be used to describe me. While it was tempting to do Steve Miller Band's "The Joker," XTC's "Love on a Farmboy's Wages," or Donald Fagen's "The Nightfly," they all seemed to only identify certain aspects of how I see myself. What is a Gemini to do? Go enigmatic but cling to one particular portion of the lyrics as justification that the song isn't a cop-out but an accurate description of how I see myself was my decision.

Do you know me as the quiet guy watching the group or the one on center stage? Do you see the Eagle Scout or the nonconformist prankster?

"Zebra" from the John Butler Trio is filled with contradictions and opposites, but I do definitely agree that:

"I can be anything I put my mind to, boy,
All I gotta do is give myself a half a chance."
