Actually, this brings to mind something I saw last year... This guy I know, together with his brother, runs two tire-shops in Sacramento. The father, in his late 60's, owns them both, keeps the books, and basically keeps his boys from spending themselves into financial ruin.
Anyway, the younger brother (with a monster chip on his shoulder) starts harassing dad, in front of me and several employees, "you're too old," and "you don't know anything about cars," etc... Dad warns young son to shut up, or get the shoe...
Young son turns his back, and keeps flapping his lips. Dad sits down, starts unlacing a very expensive leather shoe... 30 seconds later, the heel of that shoe is being cracked across the back of young-sons' head, and he runs for the door...
BTW, the younger son was 26 years of age.
I laughed my @$$ off.... And the old guy just looked at me, and winked. ;) Of course, they're all originally from Syria.
