Sometimes finding out is no fun

I was sent an awesome picture of a Kayak in a whales mouth only to find out from Hoax-Slayer that the photographer is very good at using photoshop.  But it is still a great visual of "It could always be worse."

 I think life is like this too.  We think we know something only to find out we have been tricked.  The photo trick is harmless, even if the email swears that it is real.  As a child I was told many "facts" that now that I am an adult, I have to review those "facts" and relabel them as someone's opinion or in some cases out right lies used to manipulate me as a child.  But I am an adult now.  I can look at my past and review information from an adult perspective.  I enjoy creating photoshop tricks myself but I still feel offended when someone tries to pass off a trick as the truth.
