we have a newly hired kid in the office. damn professor when it comes to books..but yeowzah!! he didnt leave much brain-space for common sense. super nice, super personable.

my nephew and his wife are like that. EXREEEEEEMMMLY smart but not enough sense to come in outta the rain unless its in a book.
I have always had great common sense. I think I learned it at an early age from taking things apart and figuring out how they work. still do it, and some things still don't go back together.
common sense does not seem as sharp as I am getting older. simple problems are passing me by.
