I'm going to see if I can defuse an atom bomb and make coffee at the same time.

Nope, I can't.

Um, if you happen to be in the vicinity of Los Angeles, you may, um, want to think about maybe, I don't know, starting to...

I can do many things at a time...however, when I do this it isn't very successful anyway. I usually do one thing at a time as it's more effective for me to complete tasks this way.
