Sterling has spent his life continually seeking an answer to the
question, "I know who you are but who am I?" He finds the answer,
over time and in many different places, by paying attention to
people, remembering what he's observed, carefully selecting
behaviors like performance, actions, deeds, activities, manners and
conduct to emulate. He often chooses not to accept things on blind
faith, without comprehension or understanding. "Help me understand"
was, and continues to be, his watchword. He tries to avoid the
inevitable conflict between adult realism and youthful idealism. He
often fails. "With your looks and personality and your oft-proven
ability to manipulate people, your future is in sales," he was
told. "You don't need to waste your time trying to get into a
college-you can make a really good living selling cars, or just
about selling anything for that matter." Now, after his official
send off from the university where embarrassing words like "a true
leader of education," "inspiring professor," and "Professor
Emeritus" were bestowed- words that should have humbled him to
tears, but didn't, he looks back over a career of circuitous
hiccups and turns, wins and losses, tears and laughter. Sterling is
blessed with a well developed sense of humor-some might even say
over-developed and his sense of the ridiculous saved his skin many
times by deflecting threats and easing tense situations. It's also
helped him get past difficult moments, permitting him time for calm
logical thinking to find the best, albeit not always the greatest
solution, to problems. In the end, his life and this book are
amusing and for the most part, a whole lot of fun.
