Au contraire

On the other hand, some days I know nothing. The following conversation is typical.

Driving up the Gatineau Parkway today, Tim pointed out the window to a clearing in the woods. "Is that a golf course," he asked.

"Nope," I replied.

"What is it?"

"It's a sort of park, in the woods."

"No," Tim said. "It's a golf course."

"Uh, no... it's a park. Or a forest." (I was trying to cover a few bases, to maximize my chance of success.)

"NO, IT'S A GOLF COURSE!!"

(And yes, the all-caps signifies shouting.)
