5.0 out of 5 stars a modern day Horatio Alger, December 12, 2003
This review is from: Mr. T's Be Somebody: Or Be Somebody's Fool (Hardcover)
Well, as much as the tube socks helped, I must say I wasn't really at the top of my game. I guess you could say I was like one of those fancy new houses you see - all spiffy on the outside but not much on the inside! Well, things have changed. This book was like a moving van and Mr. T provided the furniture to fill up my house with a can-do spirit!

I knew I needed something to connect with the ladies at an intellectual level, not just a physical level. That's where Mr. T comes in - what can I say, the man is truly a motivator!!! Mr. T details his rise from poverty to overcome all odds and become America's favorite tough guy.

One of my snooty bookish friends said I should read the Autobiography of Malcolm X instead, but I say "no way, Mr. T is the original." Besides, you can tell that this guy is blatantly ripping off Mr. T's style by putting a letter as his last name, I mean give me a break Malcolm, can you try to be a little more original please?

But enough about the imitators, if you want to improve your attitude and be inspired, read this book. If you don't - I PITY THE FOOL!!! (this is a line Mr. T uses alot).

See Ya,

Da Pete-ster
