Under normal circumstances (i.e. for anyone but Amma) you should be very careful about playing the "do you know who I am?" card when challenged or questioned, particularly by an authority figure. When Glen "Rhinestone Cowboy" Campbell was busted for drunk driving he told the arresting officer "Do you know who I am? I'M GLEN ****ING CAMPBELL!!" Former Indiana U. basketball coach Bobby Knight was also known for playing the "do you know who I am" card before launching a verbal or fistic tirade against an unsuspecting victim.

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2003 Report Share Posted December 3, 2003 Whether it seems like Her style or not, I myself read it just shortly before the discussion started on this list. I was awed by it, and repeated it to several people at San Ramon. Now if I can just find where I read it....
