You've "risen" among your peers.

You've minded your own bidness thru-out.

In your "rising," you taste: juvenile clique and jungle hood mentality;

envy;

slander;

jealousy,

submission (theirs)

"Friendships" are lost and gained; personal and corporate support comes from unexpected but appreciated places.

So now what am I gone do?

Hey you wheeny whiners in the back seat: stop your whining or we will *not* go to McDonald's!

I'm driving, and there are many miles to go.
