Fame

Talent is God-given. Be humble. Fame is man-given. Be grateful. Conceit is self-given. Be careful.

~ John Wooden

My brother writes plays. I am pretty sure he will eventually become at least somewhat famous for that. As a result, I will sue him because I am confident all of the best lines in his plays will be things I have said. We will have a huge courtroom drama and then make amends. Then they will make it into a movie of us and we will get rich.

At least that is the plan for now. 

Until then, he is writing plays.

Mom: (to Kirk) What are your plays about -- if I may ask.

Kirk: (silence)

Me:  One of them is called, "Why I Hate Momma."
