Yah, of course, if one was always perfect and never made a mistake. But the
fact of life is that one does get distracted for many reasons. To depend on
being clever enough to remember to put that pop top down is easy if you are
still young, and still full of romantic idealism and the feeling of
invincibility, but when you have lived life you KNOW that mistakes happen.
