I like that! I have a tee shirt with the words "try not to be stupid" but
it's hard for me to read it. Something that broadcasts the message now and
then is much better.

However old age and physical infirmities have done wonders in terms of
calibrating my stupid-meter. (stupidometer?). My wife is no good, however;
she thinks everything I do is stupid.
