7. When he answers that he alone did, and that he is a self-made man
Edited on Fri Feb-17-06 09:03 AM by izzybeans
ask him who gave him his first pole? Then ask him, who made the pole? Then who subsidized the making of the pole? etc. What would happen if a Tsunami swept you off your feet while you were fishing? Self-made men pick themselves back up and start over right? Better hope you can find your pole.

Then end with: it takes a lot of selves to make one man. I'm sorry that you've alienated yourself from the people that love you. perhaps you'd be happier if you stopped taking them for granted.

You know stuff like that.
