Why don't we all see things the same?
Bert Mercer tells about the old farmer who drank his first bottle of soda pop
while he was headed for the big city on a speeding train. After he took one swig, the train roared into a dark tunnel. The old man cried out to his wife,
"Don't drink that sody pop, Marthie, it'll make ye blind as a bat!" Then there
was the elderly Midwest couple who profusely apologized to the TV repairman.
With red faces they met him at the door to inform him that their TV really had
no problems at all. "We made a mistake," they explained. "We put on each
other's eyeglasses." Isn't it a strange quirk of human pride that makes each
of us assume that he or she sees the world with 20/20 vision?
