Speed Bump by Dave Coverly for December 08, 2009

I think it’s two to the seventh power. That would be 128 years. I once learned how to count on my fingers in binary (from a kids’ magazine). You can count up to 1024 on your fingers that way. With a little practice, you don’t even have to pay attention any more. It’s one of those things that sounds really useful, but its only real use is to teach it to others so that you look smart. Sort of like being a Philosophy major. (May have offended somebody there…I’m just kidding.) (But what DOES a Philosophy major do, anyway?)
