Are You Right?

[Uncle Gizmo]

Have you ever wondered why you find yourself right and everybody else is wrong? Can We Trust Our Feelings and Intuition?

All the time! However, I suspect for ALL the wrong reasons...

Oh, I'm always right. Or at least my mother always told me that. And she wouldn't lie to me, would she...?



Just kidding. However, there is ONE case where I'm actually ALWAYS right. It is when I say, "I'm not sure."

I agree with Doc's second point (not sure)!!

It is strange how you/I/we assemble some parameters and "see the right solution", only to be progressively redirected as "facts" evolve and are put into context.

I figure if I am right half the time then I am doing better than most of the batters for baseball teams. Of course right is a lot a times the opinion the person. One person's right is another person's wrong.


I recently completely re-created a report (in Crystal Reports). I had made some some assumptions about the data and how Crystal Reports would handle that data.

Sometimes i wish i wasn't right, guys. Intuition is a great thing, but sometimes you just need to be experienced enough to guess the result

There is one time when I am almost ALWAYS right. That time is when someone invites me to bet on a particular sporting event and I decline. Hindsight usually shows that I was right to decline to bet, because my viewpoint would have been costly.
