#2Nice analogy. Feel that way all the time.

#3Just to confirm, because I fear the game show has a loophole, what is preventing you from eyeballing the key when he picks it, memorizing the notches, then you have a much better chance of getting the correct one. Prisoners have been known to memorize notches on a key in order to build duplicates and break out of jail.

The correct key wasn't put on full display, and the kids didn't really get much time to look over each key to pick the right one. He may have been able to determine the head shape in that time, but not much else.

#6The best startup analogy is that of a band. Everybody is in one, or if not, they want to be. A lot of work and sweat is invested, often after hours. If you get kicked out, or the band breaks up, you start another. Everyone dreams of making it big, but few do, and a lot end up making a lot less money than they think they will due to the record labels (VCs). But the dream lives on.

I think this is a good one for some [romantic] relationships as well.
The goal is not always to be together forever and/or marry, just to keep making some timeless/edgy/groovy music together.

>> Everybody is in one, or if not, they want to be.
Nah - some people leave the band, look back and just shake their head saying "yeah those were some pretty crazy times".
