In 1801, Friedrich von Schiller wrote the following in
The Maid of Orleans. Act iii, Sc. 6:
"Against stupidity, the very gods themselves contend in vain."
Some things don't change.

"Stupid is as stupid does" (Forrest Gump)

A friend of mine has a bumper sticker on his car that states "Think Daily!"

I'm convinced I've done things just as stupid as the people depicted. I must admit I'm a bit more cautious, with so many cell phone video cameras, to catch my errors. Like the time I .... No, wait! Telling you would really be stupid!
