    Default titanic and my life by bill clinton....

    Students were assigned to read 2 books, "Titanic" & "My Life" by Bill
    Clinton. One smart alec student turned in the following book report,
    with the proposition that they were nearly identical stories! His cool
    professor gave him an A+ for this report:

    Titanic: $29.99
    Clinton: $29.99

    Titanic: Over 3 hours to read
    Clinton: Over 3 hours to read

    Titanic: The story of Jack and Rose, their forbidden love, and subsequent catastrophe.
    Clinton: The story of Bill and Monica, their forbidden love, and subsequent catastrophe.

    Titanic: Jack is a starving artist
    Clinton: Bill is a bullshit artist.

    Titanic: In one scene, Jack enjoys a good cigar.
    Clinton: Ditto for Bill.

    Titanic: During ordeal, Rose's dress gets ruined.
    Clinton: Ditto for Monica.

    Titanic: Jack teaches Rose to spit.
    Clinton: Let's not go there.

    Titanic: Rose gets to keep her jewelry.
    Clinton: Monica's forced to return her gifts.

    Titanic: Rose remembers Jack for the rest of her life.
    Clinton: Clinton doesn't remember jack.

    Titanic: Rose goes down on a vessel full of seamen.
    Clinton: Monica..... let's not go there, either.

    Titanic: Jack surrenders to an icy death.
    Clinton: Bill goes home to Hillary... pretty much the same thing

    “… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

    Have you thought about quitting your day job?
    If ya can't prove it, don't say it.
    Bikes, babes, and beer, it don't get no better than that.
