As opposed to you hanging out with younger people, I actually like to hang out with older people since I am still young. It amazes me how old people have so many crazy, good stories. Sometimes we think that we know everything because we studied and graduated from college. But in reality, you can never learn everything form textbooks alone. There are two kinds of smart people: textbook smart and street smart. You cannot become a street smart by reading books. You become one by experiencing life outside of books.

I agree completely. When I graduated from Berklee I was full of book learning. I remember being taken to task after a gig by a senior musician of some renown here in Canada. He said, "what the hell where those chords you played in that last song?!" "My Berklee chords", I proudly proclaimed. He wasn't impressed, he took out a pen and wrote the correct changes. "Play this", he said gruffly. I said, "DT, I paid a lot for these chords". He still wasn't impressed. To cut a long story short, I played his changes.

Good cards are a must when the stakes are high. Either that or a really convincing bluff, but no one can pull that off all the time.
