Getting away with it...

We've all taken a few hobby shortcuts. You know, done a few things that we knew better than to try...Tempting fate in the process. And sometimes, we get away with them. Other times, the consequences of these "cheats" are immediate and painful. We often learn the hard way...And its sometimes just as painful to wean ourselves off of 'cheating" as it is when we suffer the fate which meets us when we try to "get away with it."
