This is a question Winging It

Don Spang says: I once found myself winging it in a job interview and somewhat exaggerated my technical experience in the field of mainframe computer operations. 24 years later, I'm still there. Ever had to improvise to get by? Tell us you tales of MacGyver-type genius.

Giving directions
When I first walk around a city I've never visited before, I like giving directions to befuddled locals. In response to their halting questions, I generally spout half-remembered gibberish from the tourist guidebooks, and use dead-reckoning. On their part, they are usually just disoriented and insecure, and looking for human contact. Surprise! I am too! And in exchange, we happily forgive error.
