LAL-

consider that one brit sees simon cowell on TV and probably thinks all brits need to brutally honest and express their opinions on everyone's appearence.

Not all americans watch American Idol, and not our entire country behaves that way.

I will be happy to let you know I drive a pickup truck, wear t-shirts and get dirty doing various chores which include painting my house, mowing my lawn and digging dirt to make soccer fields.

I also hang out with a fireman who is my best friend- he also drives a pickup truck- and drink beers by a bonfire at his house. He also comes over to my house to drink beer, help me put together baby furniture and paint my walls.

Both of us have gone to two plays together- downtown, all dressed up and in our sunday best. We have also ate at Jeff Rubies together (home of a $50 steak) with our wives (we drove there in a pickup truck) before one of the plays.

If anyone saw me at one location, they probably would conclude I would never do the other.

If you judge a person from afar, you will not know them because you will never get close.

Ever hear that distance is an ugly girls best friend? That means you would never get to know the inner person without putting appearences aside.

People make a difference. Not where they come from, not where they are going. It just matters where your head is at.

Can the two of you go to opposite corners so we can get back to talking about money?
