At US Treasury basic law enforcement school decades ago they gave us the following definition of an expert: "An expert is any son-of-a-bitch from out of town with a briefcase."

Not saying I'm an expert as above, but am pretty knowledgeable about how moonshine liquor is made, and have contributed to 3 books on the subject.

Expert I'm not... but my strongest talent is the ability to figure out a problem.

I can fix most things, I can learn tasks, give me a situation and I will figure out how to make it work, and then I'll find efficiencies to lean it out.




I shall respect you until you open your mouth, from that point on, you must earn it yourself.

I got those, too. I might actually know something about parts of the law.

My brain is full of numbers (mostly important dates and calculations) and useless Rock 'n Roll trivia.

I'm still trying to decide what I want to be when I grow up!

I'm an expert at getting answers to complex questions by asking real experts for help because I'll have no clue.

i are pretty dang good at being eccentric.

That being said, and as mentioned by a few others, according to my wife, i am super expert at upsetting her Frown

Might it possibly have anything to do with eccentricity?



ETA, for some reason, things have been okay lately; hopefully that continues Smile
