On Mistakes

In a drunk driving case, the defense lawyer was questioning the toxicologist who had analyzed the defendant's blood alcohol level.  "You do not suggest to the jury that you don't make mistakes, do you?" the lawyer asked.
"I'm not suggesting that I do, either," the expert replied.
"Well, tell them," the attorney pressed, "do you ever make mistakes?
There was a pause. "Well, I've been married three times."

There is an old expression that if everyone in the world threw their tsooris (pain) in a pile and you could pick up whichever one you wanted, you'd invariably pick your own.
What is the moral?
Be happy with your imperfections.  It just means you are not God.

Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
