If I were a carpenter, my thumb would be stuck in a dove-tail joint

I've never claimed to know everything. As a matter of fact, I often claim the exact opposite. This is clearly obstructing my view of success. No one should ever claim to know everything. But no one can honestly say they know nothing, either. We all know something. Some know a little more than others. And while one might know a lot about one thing, they might know absolutely nothing about something else. By the same token, what this person doesn't know might be something someone else knows. We've all got our areas of specialization.

I might be able to spot a plot device in one of his beloved Steven Seagal movies, but he knows what plant to pluck a leaf from to cure a bug bite. And really, doesn't his sound more practical? (I'm not sure, becuz some people will just tell you to buy some OFF!)

Nuts... I really need to cut back on my caffeine intake. It's leaving me with a sour stomach and the inability to make sense. (And here I thought it'd get me wired enough for a marathon writing session)
