Wrestling With Reality

[tabs]

I wresteld with reality for 35 years and I am happy to say I finially won. I was down at 18th and Fairfax leaning up against a lampost when a fella said, "You can be either oh so smart or oh so pleasant in life." it was right there and then that I decided it was best to be smart.

Pleasant will get you a hell of a lot further. I work with plenty of smart A-holes that get stuck in a corner because nobody wants anything to do with them. Doesn't genius & insanity go hand in hand? I'll stick with pleasant & decent, our overcrowded penal system is full of "smart" people.

Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, "In this world, Elwood, you must be" -- she always called me Elwood -- "In this world, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant." Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. And you may quote me.

Sometimes being right isn't the most important thing. MY dad used to say (rest his soul) "Its mind over matter...If you don't mind, it don't matter...."
