Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit, Wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad.

In the same way knowledge is knowing how to change a car radiator, Wisdom is knowing when to stop and call a guy in who will do it in two days time for £35.


I have Wisdom. Laughing


Only for today though. Rolling Eyes

Knowledge is the acumulation of facts, Wisdom is how you use those facts Smile

So the teacher asks her class to compose a sentence or a short story containing the word ''wisdom''.
Little Joe put his hand up and said, ''King Soloman was a very wise man and he was full of wisdom''.
Little Anne put her hand up and said, ''This morning I brushed my teeth and the toothbrush that I used was a wisdom''.
Little Jack put his hand up and said ''Last night my dad came home from work and my mum gave him beans on toast for his evening meal. He was really angry with her. He said that he had been working all day down t'pit and he wasn't happy coming home to beans on toast. He then picked up the beans on toast and wisdom out of the window''.

And a little knowledge is dangerous.

I love it when people talk bollocks about chemicals, and I just verbally destroy them in front of their cronies.

Experience is knowing that when A Guy turns up, he'll suck his teeth and say "Oh, hang on, you've got one of those radiators with coolant fluid in it, they can be tricky" and the price will go up to whatever you've got in your pockets, plus a go on your wife.

Knowledge is seeing a problem.

Wisdom is either fixing it or ignoring it... put up or shut up.

I am smart, but not wise, I whinge continuously about things I don't have the power/energy to change.

Ah well.

Actually the guy is one of those mobile mechanics, he did the the electrics for the tow bar and was spot on. The guy doesn't know what a clock is so the time he gives you can be plus or minus a few hours. He does only charge what he quotes and for that reason he gets a tip up to the value of what I thought it may have cost.

As for having a go on the wife, I think he would charge me extra for having a go at that Grinch.
