Mike – the difference between you and them isn’t that you are smarter – it is that they are much much more likable.

All the accomplishments in the world can’t make up for a total and complete lack of charisma and/or social knowledge.

I’d also like to point out that people who play jeopardy win a hell of a lot more then a thousand bucks. Even people who play are you smarter than a 5th grader get more money. Your haul kinda sucks.

Groucho Marx never went to college but made up for it by intensive reading and became known for his avid desire to learn. One of his famous quotes, “I find television very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book.”

Also, every writer to ever write for “The Simpsons” has been a Harvard graduate.

Bridget from “The Girls Next Door” has a master’s degree in French. Proof that you can be blond, busty, and smart! (I qualify for two of the three. I’ll leave you to decide which two. ;) )
