Default Redux-The dumbest thing I did this week...

She arrived about an hour later than expected. She complained that while
she was driving at the highway speed limit and even though it was raining,
cars were "speeding" right by her all the way.

You guessed it guys, she'd somehow pushed the button on her Buick's
dashboard which switched the speedometer from english to metric, and
despite the little "KM" lit up on the speedo dial, she she kept the needle
"at the speed limit" all the way back. G



What was she going, like 35 mph in a 55 zone, something like that?
And she didn't notice she was going really slow. Lucky she didn't
cause an accident.

I hope she's not required to make important decisions where you work.
She doesn't seem to be very intuitive. Heh.

That's what's so amazing about her Nancy. She has no real understanding
or desire to learn about how technological things work, but was gifted
with extremely good intuition when it comes to people skills.

She started her for-profit business 28 years ago. It currently has over
70 allied medical professionals and teachers working for it, and she's
still making all the important daily decisions.
