47/365 Tom

Tom sees everything coming. “I could have predicted that,” he’ll shrug but nobody can recall him doing so. “I could have told you that wouldn’t work,” he’ll declare. Then why didn’t he? In hindsight Tom continually stuns the group with his expertise and perspicacity.

Did you watch Gilmore Girls last night? I think that word figured prominently (if my short-term memory is holding...).
