Hell Hath No Fury.

I have to ask a question of the world! Specifically 1/2 of the population. Those that have a Y chromosome. What makes you think you can get away with anything? Even your most accomplished liars eventually are found out. So why do it, why attempt when you know the best you can hope for is eventual, deferred, failure?

I ask this question because of late I've been watching my best friend peel away the layers of a very thick web of lies. Things found, often in plain sight, that he never thought would be found. Things left innocently as though they have nothing to offer hide dusty grey secrets. Things said that appeared to have no meaning are thick with implications. And it just makes me wonder....

What is it about you guys that makes you think you can fool us? You see our good-hearted loving nature and long for what? To see how much you can get away with, just because you can? For the most part, we always know something is up. We always know on some deep level. It may not be apparent to us, but once the gate is open, we can show you exactly how far down the fence goes.

So I offer this piece of wisdom: don't try. No matter what you think, you can not get away with it. Eventually you will slip up, and we are swift and quick-witted enough to know when you do.
