Not to speak ill of the recently departed, but I gotta tell you that Mama Nimdok had business dealings w/ Mr. Dean, and called him just about the most pompous ass she ever met.
I can see/believe that. Being rich and owning yachts can have that effect.
A Jimmy Dean quote with a little truth in it:
"Formal education is a marvelous thing. But unless it’s liberally sprinkled with plain old common horse sense, it’s not worth a shit."
I am guessing that he always resented anyone with an education. He was given an honorary high school diploma (after a generous gift to PISD) a few years ago.
