July 23, Thurs. - Stop Lyin'

Don't pretend to know about stuff you don't actually know about, 'cuz then you start talking, and it's all fiction. Conversely, if you do know something, and you don't say something, that's a lie of omission. (Big Dummy doesn't necessarily mind these - everybody doesn't have to know everything you know... especially if they don't ask. But then, if they do, you should tell the truth. Unless you're in the army.) It's okay to "not know the right answers," so long as you have the capacity to find the right answers. It's not okay to make up fake answers.*

*Unless you have a knack for making up answers that happen to be "right."
