It was a daunting offer : The entire episode was to be taped for posterity and posted on our Web site at www . MPNnow.com . If I failed , not only would the kids at the camp laugh at me , but anyone who logged online could do so . I 'd been to the interactive area many years before as a youth , but as an adult , I seemed out of my element as hordes of children ran from event to event . The age difference was apparent as most of the kids measured up to my waist .

Question: Why did I want to succeed instead of failing ?
Answer: I like being the butt of the joke .I did n't want to be made fun off .I enjoy being made fun off .I like it when others make fun of me .
