We won't get fooled again - or will we?

If you're part of the Baby Boomer generation - or if you watched this year's half-time show during the Superbowl, you probably know who "The Who" are - sounds like an Abbott and Costello routine, doesn't it?

Anyway, one of their very popular songs contains the line "We won't get fooled again."

Wishful thinking - or youthful brashness?

My experience is that unfortunately we will get fooled again!

I did.

Thanks to one of my readers, I just found out that my post on Regina Brett's "45 life lessons" was written by her in 2006 when she turned 50 and not 90 as I wrote.

I didn't check my facts - and I know better! I first saw this article in a newsletter I received from a trusted colleague of mine. Because of this, it never dawned on me that there might be some inaccuracies. I'm sure that he felt the same way when he first saw the article. And so on. This is how Urban Legends start and grow.

Let's see how long until I get fooled again.
