I also like this comment/quote from Early;
"Autobiographies are not really good sources if you're looking for absolute complete factual accounts of someone's life," [<-- True] agreed Professor Early. "Autobiographies serve another kind of purpose for the person writing the book. I don't think it much matters whether Barack Obama has told the absolute truth in Dreams From My Father. What's important is how he wanted to construct his life."
Sweet...this is an opportunity...I've decided that when I write my autobio I will "construct myself" as 6' 6" blonde-maned stud who's monster-hung like John Holmes tossin' a money-shot at his peak with a daily limitless Warren Buffet-like discretionary fund in my wallet, confirm Zeus was my daddy and the Virgin Mary was my momma with my blood-line stemming from all the various Gods. Certainly I will have humped every hot-azz harlot that ever graced the silver screen because they just couldn't help themselves in avoiding my charm and appeal and I will have cured cancer and herpes in my spare time. In my life-long struggle to overcome I, too, will have slept in dumpsters, ate with kings, and led the masses of all nations into the land of milk-n-money while they sang my praises all along the way. My only competiton in life will have been that unwashed looking phucker, the Dos Equis Most Interesting Man, and my "constructed life" will make him pale in the shadows of my grand exploits.
The lemmings will buy that...right? I mean afterall...hey...it's just a "constructed thang" Because THAT is what is important, what I "want" things to be versus reality.
