I almost pulled it of‚ but I messed it up in the end and headed to the ground with my hands down. My right wrist was twisted the wrong way in the air when I landed hard on the ground‚ it just broke it.

Thesis: People should not trust their ability to thin-slice in situations. I think that Malcolm Gladwell has proven that in experts‚ decisions should not be made in the blink of an eye.

Through the foggy glass‚ Scrooge could make out the rather large outline of none other than Peggy Harker‚ a worker at the local orphanage.
