You Know what you know

You know what you know, and you don't know what you don't know. Yesterday that was the scenario. Winky and Kadizzle got into a big kerfuffle about the sediment pond in our backyard. Winky said she spoke with the engineer who designed the pond and the engineer told her there was a small two inch hole in the wall. Kadizzle thought this was nonsense and there was a failure to communicate. Kadizzle was sure he was right and decided to go to the engineer and get things straight. Then the brain came alive. Maybe there was a hole. Kadizzle dug down in the dirt where the hole might be, and low and behold it was there. 

Now the moral of this story is make sure you know what you are asserting, before you make and ass certainer of yourself. The hole was either there or it was not. What constitutes a fact? That is a major problem in our world today. A lot flies around masquerading as fact. The classic today is blaming Biden for gas prices. Sure it works, but is it true. Cause and effect are mysterious ideas. Did this cause that. The sun came up, what caused it. For thousands of years people got it wrong. No one knew the Earth was spinning so everyone made the wrong assumption. 

One way to solve some of the mysteries is the idea that if one thing is true, then something else should be. For example if Biden stole the election, why didn't he get some more Democrats elected when he was stuffing the ballot box?  Seems like simple logic, but it kind of messes up the Trump story.
