As promised, more snippets of personal wisdom/smartassery from the men and women who live their lives in front of the camera, and have become larger than life to some. Just not to me.
I've always kept the perspective that everyone has to put their pants on one leg at a time, just like me. Even those in positions of power. Simple maybe, but effective when talking to the people much higher up the ladder than I. Reading these, I'd say that even those in Hollywood realize we all are human with faults...
Men reach their sexual peak at eighteen. Women reach theirs at thirty-five. Do you get the feeling that God is playing a practical joke?

And so it goes......

Those are great quotes. But when I thing someone is getting bigger than life, I put them back into perspective by imagining them wiping their ass while on the toilet. Not so God like are they.
"effective when talking to the people much higher up the ladder than I."
Yup. And it get easier when they turn out to be total asses dontcha think?!
~P~
John,
Well... that's certainly one view I'd rather not envision! LOL But whatever works for you.

Pattie,
You know what? I've found most of the people who held high corporate positions were normal people like me. They had kid issues, husband/wife issues, money problems and all the other things that us normal folks had. Amazing what you find out bout others when there's a few drinks to be thrown down the gullet. Yeah, there were some A-holes, but no matter where you are, you will find them.
Those, I won't even pee on. Not worth my time nor energy, even now.
