How smart you are against how dumb you are is a matter of 3 things.
1- Where you are
2- What you're talking about
3- Who you're talking to
Now I'm just an unlettered old man who made a living for a lot of years with his hands and his back, but I'm smarter than the college professor with a couple of them doctor degrees who didn't think out the mower blade is sharp on one side and don't cut grass for **** when its on the machine upside down. Who is the man in the room who looks really stupid a minute after he went all up in the air about me not knowing how to sharpen a blade and I show him which way is up?
I just figure there are a lot of people in the world who gotta go around telling the rest of the people how smart they are. That's fine by me, I ain't gotta listen to them, and I pretty much don't. I figured out the really smart people are the ones not running their mouth about how smart they are, really smart folks just solve problems and produce. I keep remembering that little man with the toiletpaper wound around his head who was telling me exactly how the transformer needed to be moved. He was still talking about how it needed to be done when I had my rig all stacked and chained headed back to the next load. All his education and all his talking didn't accomplish a dang thing. Well, might be he contributed to the global warming with all the air he moved.
Seems like the world has more people every day, and more machines that do work men used to do, so a bunch of people got together and appointed themselves the smart ones everybody else has to listen to and take orders from. Seems like all them smart people got themselves on payrolls and produce nothing for their pay, other than prices going up. A good number of them must work for the government too cause the price of that just keeps going up.
Then again, what do I know, I'm just a dumb old truck driver who ain't even got letters behind his name cause his parents gave him all the name he ever needed.
