You may remember a few weeks back when NewMexiKen posted a link to David Pogue’s Imponderables. Well, he’s posted some of the responses: Readers Answer Some of Pogue’s Imponderables. The replies include my own about laptops at takeoff, but others are more fun, especially this:
* Who are the morons who respond to junk-mail offers, thereby keeping spammers in business?
–”That would be my sister.”
–”My mother, O.K.? Now you know.”
–”Statistically speaking, half of ALL people are below-average intelligence. That fact can explain MANY things.”
–”Naive people, like recent immigrants; old people whose adult children just set them up with a computer for the first time; and the truly desperate who’ve already tried other methods of penis enlargement.”
