Often learning the hard way is the only way. But so many people are so damn lazy if they even smell “hard” they’re running the other way! God forbid they should work a little bit to gain some knowledge.

There is nothing quite like finding yourself in the middle of a text book case of what not to do. Sometimes they are of our own doing. Other times the situation is engineered be highly paid ‘experts’. Neither one is in the least bit fun. Often they are quite a bit messy. And they provide a memory that speaks loudly and lasts long.
