Heard around the office again today, "I don't want to tell you how to suck eggs." I believe its from the expression, "Don't try to teach your Grandma to suck eggs." I understand the intended meaning: to not teach something that should already be known to a person who should already know it. But, what if you don't know how to suck eggs? Is the appropriate response to this statement, "actually, I would very much appreciate if you could tell me how to suck eggs?" Or perhaps its better that I ask my Grandma? In more important news, the Australian tectonic plate seems to be a bit antsy the last few days. My thoughts and prayers are with those whose lives were lost or devastated in the last two days. The earth is both amazing and amazingly powerful.
