A Monk Jumped over a Wall by Jay NussbaumMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I liked the message about trying to find your own path in life by following your own voice instead of the voices of others.

1. His mother's: "what are you waiting for, a round of applause?"
2. His father's: "Why was I cursed with this family of losers?"
Then, J.J. finally remembers his old mentor's advice: "You can spend the rest of your life trying to get even with a memory, or you can just tell him to [****:] off. It's a little crude but the advice is right on the money.
