I don't actually think I could calculate the number of times in the last 20 years N and I have said to each other "we go to war with the [whatever] we have, not the [whatever] we might want or wish to have in the future." Even more versatile than "unknown unknowns" as Rumsfeld quotes go.
what's ironic is that there's actually at least a kernel of wisdom in each! Much more so in the latter but still some in the former
ugh yes so often for work I have to find out what I don’t know and every time I’m like “THAT GUY”
Although now I’m thinking of how hard is was to eat cold fried chicken with a plastic fork last week. I had to go to war with the fork I had, not the fork I wish I had
Or might wish to have in the future!
