Here’s something from former football coach Lou Holtz — its not inspiring, but at least it prevents you from being a bore — Dont’ tell your problems to people: 80% dont’ care and the other 20% are glad you have them.

Here’s another take from Jim Carrey. This is not inspiring either, but then it gives some poignant reflection on where happiness can be had ” I think everybody should get rich and famous and do everything they ever dreamed of so they can see that it’s not the answer.”

Inaccurate fuel Gauges

My car has some electronic controls that makes you think that some of the latest advancement of technology. However, I noted that the fuel gauge is not particularly accurate — something I read that is prevalent in a lot of car models. If I fill up the tank near full, I will drive about 180-190 kilometers before it comes to half mark. So I thought pretty much, using common math, that a tankful should enable me to drive about 360 - 380 kilometers easily. No. I would only get to 320 before it becomes empty. That means the gauge is throwing up something inconsistent. Question — is there a psychological reason to do this, or is it just plain that we still haven’t made fuel gauges that are accurate?
