Why can’t people just say what they mean?

I find it interesting that so many people are unable to say that they mean and mean what they say. Now my neighbors call me “A straight shooter with no chaser.” If you don’t know what this mean, its straight shot of liquor without no water chasing behind it. It also means you are the kind of person who doesn’t take any bullshit. Now over the years I have worked hard not to be so very direct, but I am still a straight shooter. I don’t like to guess at what people are saying and I don’t like for people to have to guess at what I am saying.

Do you ever…

Do you ever feel like everyone gets except you?

It seems every day when I open my email account someone has sent me an email telling me they know the secret to something. The secret to business success, riches, the perfect body, always some secret that I don’t know. Sometimes I think maybe there are secrets that I don’t know because it sure seems the older I get, the less I seem to know or understand.
