    I'm pretty smart for what I know but dang I'm sure not as smart as I thought I was. I have a Ph.D in Education but My education is sure lacking in a lot of things

    The longer I live, the more I find I don't know.

    Knowing everything is highly over-rated ... people still call me stupid and tell me that I'm full of it, but I just smile because I know everything and they're just jealous because they think they know a few things, but often they come-around in the end and realize that I was right and that I'm super-smart and know everything there is to know about stuff, like coins and science and space and numismatics and brain surgery, so I can often tell that people get jealous and act like I don't know very much, but I turn my frown upside-down by saying something really, really, smart and then I can see that look on their faces when they realize that I'm correct, for they roll their eyes and snicker because they've figured-out how smart I am and they feel badly for saying those mean things about me not knowing the answer, when in the end they're all like "wow, that guy said wax-on, wax-off, so he must be really, really smart because I saw that on a movie once", so then I think to myself, I kinda feel sorry for people who don't realize how smart I am because they must get a lot of answers and things wrong on tests and exams and Jeopardy and stuff, right?

    A well structured sentence. Wow, I'm impressed. I guess you DO know everything. Can I have your autograph?

    Instead of an autograph, can we all have a beer together? :) Between us all, Quiz-night at a Pub or Trivia-Night at a Bar would be fun... :D
