Here's a nice example of the difference between being 29 with a college degree and 22 with a high school degree.
Angie's and Jessie’s speeches to the house
Angie: Well, it has certainly been an interesting three weeks for us. We’ve made some friends. We’ve made some enemies. But, it all started out with thirteen strangers walking into this house and, basically, trying to win half a million dollars. So, you guys are probably sitting here right now pretty … pretty confident in your vote, who you’re going to be voting to evict. But, I just want to offer you one thing. Only one person in this room is going to win five hundred thousand dollars. Not an alliance, not a majority of the house, one person. So, you need to take a good hard look at the nominees up here right now and you need to decide who’s the biggest roadblock in your way to winning that money. If it’s me, great, I’ll walk out the door. But if it’s not, I would definitely take that into some serious consideration before you walk in that room and cast your vote. Because that’s the mistake you definitely don’t want to regret. Thanks.
Julie: Thanks, Angie. Jessie, your turn.
Jessie: Uh, I came into this house, uh, with respect, um, and I knew I was going to stand up for myself. I stood up for myself week one and proved it and got some power and did what, uh, I thought everybody was going to be happy with. Um, and then, uh, things change obviously week to week and, um, I stood up for myself again. I’ve stayed consistent and if it’s something that, uh, is going to get me … through this nomination, you know, ceremony and eviction then so be it. But, uh, I’m not going to, not going to sit down when I feel like I was, uh, disrespected by anybody. And I would like to hope that nobody else would either.
Julie: Thank you Jessie.
Leave No Child Behind!
And for your amusement I also have...
Jessie’s goodbye “speech” (message? inane ramblings?) to Angie
Jessie: I was pushing 110% for ya. And initially, I think that’s the … real truth, uh, of why I’m sitting here with you. You have a rationalized mind and, heh, at least you’re going to be able to communicate with people that … aren’t insane or … don’t have a really poor judgment … of … rationale. Again, I could make more similes … and analogies if you want, but … I think you understand everything that I’m trying to portray right now.
Jessie, I don't think anyone understood what you were "trying to portray".
