Not all things are possible. Reminds me of first joke I ever heard. The Devil caught a tough little kid, but said
he would let him go if he could think of something the Devil could not do. The kid cocked up one leg, insolently
farted, and said:"Chase that around a corner, strain it through a sieve, and paint it green. The Devil let him go.
