Missed It By That Much
Compensating?
It's not very often that one can say they missed by a fraction of an inch and mean it. Yet this literally happened to me yesterday at trivia night at a bar on Lexington. The question was, "According to Harry Callahan, what is the most powerful handgun in the world?" The answer can be found in the comments section, but suffice to say that when I answered ".45 Magnum" I was incorrect.
This egregious error totally wiped out my previous gains in pride from knowing the weight of a ping pong ball and which Bond film the character "Pussy Galore" appears in. It haunts me to this day.
