I fished all last week in Alaska with a very prominent German surgeon and did not know he was a Doctor until the third day when I asked him what he did. Some people are really title conscious. There is an attorney in Huntsville, Alabama that insists that you address him as Attorney ________________. I do but also insist that he address me as Certified Insurance Counselor Grimwood. It is crazy how people let their education, profession and titles go to their heads. I good dose of humility does us all good. BG
