What is Wisdom?

A query on why smart people do stupid things.

Haven’t you ever wondered why some of the dumbest things that happen can be laid directly at the feet of so-called smart people?I have I think it’s to do with them always being told they are right.Or,in the last several years the thought that if you tell them they are wrong then you somehow will destroy their confidence.So we leave them (with any) luckto muddle on without us on their way to disaster.

I’m sure that you’ve noticed that now at kids sports that score keeping isn’t so much to do with who wins or loses but to make them all feel as if they’ve won.So they(So the theory goes)won’t be discouraged.Perhaps they are rich peoples’kids and no one wants to make Momma&Daddy mad by pointing out that their kids are idiots.

Several years ago a now former President proved that even he wasn’t immune to this by misspelling goat to a bunch of kindergartners.I don’t mention this to prove that it can happen to any body,Bush was an idiot of the first order to start with.Having worked in the oil-orchard I can tell you that some of the worst fuck-ups for lack of a better word were the direct result of a  college education.These are mistakes that cost the companies involved thousands if not millions of dollars.yet in most cases,these people are still employed by the same companies.Why?I don’t know in some cases I know for a fact that it is due to them being better liars than other less well educated people.In others I suspect that it is due to their ability to give Slurpee blow-jobs.One reason I always hated to work for a young Tool-Pusher.An older one will at least have the benefit of experience,whereas a younger one might just have given a b.j. to the right person,or gotten one.One reason I don’t much care for ex-con.s.While some are alright others are closet queers who having been raped during their stint in prison decided they liked it.Being in a position of power they have the means to surf the new guys for those of like mindedness.Most companies don’t even want to know either.if they find out they won’t fire the wrongdoer but the one who is being wronged ,on the theory that it will shut them up.
