Pumps' Perplexities

Have you noticed that people, bosses, politicians and
even friends want someone to "commit" to the exact
time and date a "project" or "job" will be finished.....

If you buy a house, that will be built to your exact
specifications, you want to know when to order the
moving truck......Even though it may be 3 to 6 months
away.......Everybody wants to know the exact day and
time the Iraq war will end.......How stupid.......

A lot of this is due to the change in society.....Today a
woman can give birth "by Cesarean Section" and know
the exact time and date she will give birth to her child....
But there are some events humans can not control but
"they" think for some reason "they" can.......

All these requests for "exactness" has resulted in people
lying to each other.......What is worse is that people are
expecting and tolerate these lies.......It seems to be some
kind of game......

What ever happened to the truth and the acceptance of
the words, "Honestly, I do not know."......Pumps
