“In many ways, Big Brother is the present day equivalent of a 1980s Club 18-30 Holiday - flirting, sunbathing, silly little organised games, and lots of people you'd like to remove from the genepool with a cricket bat.” PeopleWayLittlesBigsGamesBrotherClubsSillyHolidayRemoveBatsCricketFlirtingPresent DayOrganisedSilly LittleSunbathing Book:Dawn of the Dumb Source: Dawn of the Dumb
“He's just intelligent-sort of a nerd, actually. He's the only brother I know who made a 1420 on the SAT. I don't think Chris Dudley did that, and Mr. Smarty Pants went to Yale. Kobe doesn't hang out. He doesn't go to the clubs. He doesn't ride around. He doesn't put rims on his car. He's just him. He's a sophisticated kid. Damn mature for his age.” ThinkingKnowsMadeKidsAgeCarBrotherBasketballIntelligentClubsDamnSatMatureHanging OutPantsSophisticatedNerdYaleRimsLakersSmarties Author:Shaquille O'Neal

“My father announced early on that he didn't want his sons to be "country club bums." And for a number of reasons, I bore the brunt of that - I have an older brother and two younger brothers. So he had me work in all my spare time. I started out picking dandelions, shoveling stalls, milking cows, building a fence - whatever dirty job was out there. That's a big deal, because you learn things working that you don't learn in school.” WantTwoCountryReasonBigsSchoolJobsFatherDealsNumbersBuildingSonBrotherClubsDirtyCowsBoresSparesFenceBig DealOlder BrotherSpare TimeDandelionsYounger BrotherCountry ClubsDirty JobsMilking Cows Author:Charles Koch
