It’s going to be a massive honour to represent your country, if selected, for the World Cup.
The situation in Iraq was dire at the end of 2006, when President George W. Bush decided to implement the surge and selected me to command it. Indeed, when I returned to Baghdad in early February 2007, I found the conditions there to be even worse than I had expected.

I was selected to be an astronaut on a military program called the Manned Orbiting Laboratory back in ’67. That program got cancelled in ’69 and NASA ended up taking half of us.

Whatever roles were being offered to me I selected from them and here I am.
Calling on each molecule one by one? No way. I just told all of them to be quiet – except for a selected few.
