Things I have learned this week

1. The average teenager has less manners than the average five-year old.

2. An ant is smarter than most teenagers.

3. The average metal office desk is a lot tougher than the average big toe, even when wearing tactical duty boots.

4. Fires love to occur during your lunch break.

5. The average person doesn't think that just because it is dry and windy that there is any reason that they shouldn't burn leaves, etc.

6. The average firefighter thinks the average person is an idiot because of this.

7. If what you say can be interpreted two different ways, and one is bad, that is the way it will be interpreted.

8. No matter what, someone will mis-interpret what you say.

9. The ability to sue someone is FAR too easy in this country.

10. Just threatening to sue someone for an asinine reason should be considered a death-penalty offense.

Oh wait, I already knew all of those. I guess this week just offered me a glaring reminder of the painfully obvious.

Well I was 'in-the-know' with all except the desk/toe. Did want to be the one to try, but since you did, thanks for the heads up.
