A Cry for Help

So as you can probably imagine, I am very popular and lead an incredibly exciting life. That's part of the reason I don't blog much (the other part, in case you were wondering, is because I am busy waging war on X-mas). Part of this exciting existance is the occasional party invite, one of which I received today and will reprint in its unabridged, unedited, un-made-upedness below:

Today - Snow & Smiles

======
Edufication

The True Gentleman is the man whose conduct proceeds from good will and
an acute sense of propriety, and whose self-control is equal to all
emergencies; who does not make the poor man conscious of his poverty,
the obscure man of his obscurity, or any man of his inferiority or
deformity; who is himself humbled if necessity compels him to humble
another; who does not flatter wealth, cringe before power, or boast of
his own possessions or achievements; who speaks with frankness but
always with sincerity and sympathy; whose deed follows his word; who
thinks of the rights and feelings of others, rather than his own; and
who appears well in any company, a man with whom honor is sacred and
virtue safe.
