It was a true story. This father was talking to a teacher and she did not like his son going to a chess tournament.<br /><br />The father said "my son is better at chess than I was at anything I ever did. My son is better at chess than anything you will ever do." Alexis, don't you know how great that is!Chuck Bluesteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01291807414895185920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6485729541580426717.post-38418251473947966442015-12-13T00:04:00.675-08:002015-12-13T00:04:00.675-08:00Wow!

Although you have to say that it helps to be a genius and an evolved subspecies! Thanks for telling me that. Maybe you can write a little article called How I Get a Perfect 100 in Medical School Tests.<br /><br />In fact if I were your father, I would be telling everyone that you get 100 on almost every test score in medical school. In fact this would happen if I were your father. I would go to a church and go into confession with a priest and he would ask me to confess. Then I would tell him that you get a 100 on almost every test you take in medical school. Then he would say "That is not a confession." Then I would say that I am not even Catholic. Then he would ask why I told him that. Then I would say "I am not just telling you, I am telling everybody." Even though I am not your father, I am so proud of you. So I have to go now and tell my friends that all of your test scores are 100 except for 3 that were 98.Chuck Bluesteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01291807414895185920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6485729541580426717.post-28484900626057836672015-12-10T13:37:31.302-08:002015-12-10T13:37:31.302-08:00I've only had three exam scores below 100.

That is...It is funny that you had wild, curly hair. That is trademark of Jewish people. My female cousins ironed their hair. Also Albert Einstein and Bernie Sanders both have (or had) wild hair. Here is a picture of Einstein's hair.<br />http://listingtostarboard.blogspot.com/2013/08/top-12-famous-people-with-bad-hair.html#.VmmejJBIj9Q<br /><br />Now Bernie Sanders does not believe that people need billions of dollars since it would take 1,000 years to spend it. Say you were a billionaire. You could buy the most expensive Steinway piano for under $2 million. You can also buy the most expensive violin with an estimated $20 million and the 2nd most expensive violin with an auction price of $16 million.<br /><br />In fact if you owned them, would you play them or let your mother run them over with her car (that is really funny)? Now that still would leave you with $962 million, starting out with only one billion dollars. You can also own the most expensive house (Bill Gates has that now with a house worth $150 million) for only 160 million and still have $802 million left.<br /><br />If I was a billionaire, I would make it a priority to make sure there was not any homeless children in America. Nearly 2.5 million American children were homeless at some point in 2013. Now maybe I could not house them all but I bet people would be inspired to help me.<br /><br />Once I saw this woman that I never see sitting on South street (all stores on street) in Philadelphia begging for money. She was sitting there many hours and I work the night shift-- on weekends. So I asked her why she was begging for money and she said that she was short on rent money. I asked if she got the $35 she needed, would she be ready to go home. She said "yes." So I gave her a free cab ride home and gave her $35. Sometimes good, honest people need a little help.Chuck Bluesteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01291807414895185920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6485729541580426717.post-68166463905890781012015-12-10T07:30:33.738-08:002015-12-10T07:30:33.738-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Chuck Bluesteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01291807414895185920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6485729541580426717.post-14802609402271447022015-12-09T23:07:27.649-08:002015-12-09T23:07:27.649-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Chuck Bluesteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01291807414895185920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6485729541580426717.post-83076436442973038822015-12-09T09:17:05.494-08:002015-12-09T09:17:05.494-08:00Happy Birthday!

But we can estimate or guesstimate what they are. They are probably over 90 which means an A.<br /><br />Also they are probably the third highest marks in the class since you said that you are the third smartest person there and you do plenty of studying. You have some idea how you did after the test is taken. The scenes in the song above are from one of the movies where the guy is a vampire. I think he is around 150 years old. A werewolf also loves her but she loves the vampire the most. Who would you prefer as a boyfriend?<br /><br />I love you and want what will make you the happiest. Based on what you have said about Judge Alex, I think that after medical school, you should go to law school. Then after being a lawyer and winning some cases, then you can be a congresswoman at 26. Then you can be a senator and then President. I saw on Twitter a couple of women who are MDs and also have some fiction books they wrote.<br /><br />Now if you contact Judge Alex and he knows that he was very influential in your formative years, and you ask him what he thinks of my above plans, I bet he would say they are superb. Or you can just ask yourself would Judge Alex love that idea.Chuck Bluesteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01291807414895185920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6485729541580426717.post-33402428104635798292015-12-07T03:55:49.641-08:002015-12-07T03:55:49.641-08:00It was a nice time.
