Hey Rocky, watch me pull an autobiography out of my hat...
Again?
Nothin' up my sleeve....
In my younger and more vulnerable years my father gave me some advice
that I've been turning over in my mind ever since.
"Whenever you feel like criticizing anyone," he told me, "just remember
that all the people in this world haven't had the advantages that you've had."
He didn't say any more, but we've always been unusually communicative in
a reserved way, and I understood that he meant a great deal more than that.
In consequence, I'm inclined to reserve all judgments, a habit that has
opened up many curious natures to me and also made me the victim of not a few
bores. The abnormal mind is quick to detect and attach itself to this
quality when it appears in a normal person, and so it came about that in
college I was unjustly accused of being a politician, because I was privy to
the secret griefs of wild, unknown men."
Whoops, wrong character. I should at least be the hero in my own hat.
Now here's something we hope you'll *really* like...
