Masonic Swimmers
This week, I learned that a Masonic Pool Tournament is in fact one that takes place on a pool table and not a swimming pool. I probably would have gotten through the entire thing unscathed, but made the mistake of using the term "swimmers" in my final writing. This drew my editor from his office:
Boss: Zach, when you said "swimmers" what did you mean?
Vitamin: Well I ... (bells going off in my head) oh, POOL tournament, ha, I get it!"
I figure that God has a sense of humor, because how could events like this ever be repeated without a laugh? What's funny is that I used to be known as Mr. Sarcasm, and had this been anyone else, I'd have been all over them.
Instant Karma IS gonna get you.
I have learned that I can be stupid sometimes, but I have also learned that it is best to smile through it when I am. This wasn't the first time I came accross as a complete ignoramus, and likely won't be the last.
