<VV> Luck and schmartz

[Charles Lee]

My "luck" seems to get better when I get smarter ?

I always recall this from the movie "Vacation" :

Chevy Chase's car breaks down :
Chase to mechanic : "How much will it cost ?"
Mechanic (sizing him up) : "How much you got ?"

They could tell I didn't know OBD, and C's the Day (as in "<C>harge til they 
scream")

It's well known in business, that customers will not complain if the price 
is too low, so raise it until they do, so you're sure.

Actually, I got that from Dirk Gently, one of Douglas Adams' characters.
