Yeah. The Beaux of the world are helpful to my humility. In my freshman year at a small liberal arts college in the South I got into a debate in Poli.-Sci. class with a 'Beau'. I had come in from a fine high school and felt I should show restraint so I would not crush his spirit.

Imagine my surprise when that 'Beau' ran circles around me in that square-off. One of the many rather embarrassing, though comical in recollection, come-uppances in life. That 'Beau' had a fine mind and character. I did not realize how fortunate I had been for many years.
An interesting take of the debate.

Thanks, Ned. Beau's a keeper!
I watch Beau daily. He is phenomenal!
