My window cleaner is Arabian, he's called "Shake-my-chamois"

My Russian milkman also delivers Lemonade, he's called "Drop-a-bottle-of-pop-off"

Do you any one with a funny name?

My friends and I want to come up with a nickname for him (I know, we're lame and bored!!), and I can't think of a good one. We want to base it off of the fact that he has so many "life lessons" for us, but we can't think of one!! We've come up with lame stuff like "Yoda" or "Confucius" and so forth, but nothing really fun. Isn't there some kind of nickname you use when referring to a wise teacher that's kind of commonly used? I feel like it has something to do with martial arts... or it's in a different language or something... or it's from a movie... does anybody know what I'm talking about? Even if you don't and you can think of a good nickname, leave it, please!!

And yes, I know, I have waaaay too much time on my hands!! :)

Ok, here's the deal: I have a PI (Personal Investigation) due in October 3rd, and I haven't started on it OR gotten a topic. So what IS PI? PIs are projects that asks you to investigate on a topic (like Red Pandas, cotton candy, etc.), and then type up a report, power point, or something that gives information of your topic. The problem with me is... I DON'T HAVE A TOPIC! I tried researching on cartoons, but it didn't work out. Please help! Please make sure it is not Red Pandas or Cotton Candy or a famous person, or an animal. (I've already done red pandas and cotton candy for my two previous PIs). Thanks!

I'm a senior and narrowed my choices, my gpa is very high and parents will pay for my univ. tuition. However:
I'm stuck in choosing which career:
-Medical school (doctor) takes too much years of univ, no life, and kinda frustrating, BUT BIG BUCKS in the end,,but too much studying, have great memorizing skills but kinda lazy when it comes to studying
-Business has unlimited potential, sounds better to me, but salaries for graduates kinda scares me off (40-60k)

ANYWAYS I inted to open my own (seriously aiming to become millionaire), i plan on working several years and saving or investing enough money to start on my own, I'm am very social and have unlimited determination and willpower to do whatever it takes
--------I dont want to lose my 20's for studying in medical but i think if i get experience in business and open my own is better]
--------But i have to consider possibilities: what if my business doesnt work out? Becoming a doctor is less risk but all millionaire took risks
