I love being right. :)

How do you deal with being wrong?

LC,

Your link is gone. It's okay, because cTurkel had unflatterring things to say about me--not unusual.

What were you right about? Just curious.

like she's a " LEO," ...

Abe asks) How do you deal with being wrong?

Me) Being right is OK, but being wrong is more fun, and you don’t have to say a word. We learned it in a furniture store in Kentucky years ago.

We bought (a put it together yourself) shelf unit, but being from Michigan (at the time) we wanted to be sure all the parts were there, so the proprietor dumped the parts out on the floor. Ah ha one part was missing and we looked and looked. Finally my wife said, "Maybe it’s still in the box!"

Well it was and the proprietor looked up at us with his hand to his forehead. We looked at him quizzically, and he said, "I hate it when you’re right, it gives me a headache!"

Now when ever either one of is wrong (without saying a word) we simply put our hand to our forehead with fingers spanning the temples and bow our head. It means (in silence) "I hate it when you’re right, it gives me a headache!"

If you're really wrong, it doesn’t hurt to kind of make a graveling motion with your head.

Well, I sure hope LC comes back. I liked her posts and her comments. (Sorry, Joe.)

Carol,

It is so good to see you. You really brighten up the place.

I didn't often agree with LC, but found her thought-provoking.
Hope she returns--it will be dull without her.

Maybe LC needs a little privacy. I hope she comes back soon. She always has a lot to add. We don't all have to agree with each other all the time. Things would get very dull if we did.
