Stories of unsurpassed brilliance
This "Week" The suggestion comes from Kroney who muses
"Whilst I was passing through Miami airport at the tender age of 21, I fancied a beer. "ID" said the charming Southerner behind the desk, so I got out my passport and showed it to her.
"You have to be 21," she said. Now this confused me slightly as I had been 21 for several months by this point and my date of birth was staring her in my face.
"I am 21," I replied helpfully "it says so there, look"
"You have to be 21", she said getting angry.
Cut a long story short, I argued, the manager came out, I argued with him before I finally realised that they weren't looking at the date of birth at all. They were looking at the date of *issue*
That would have made me an annoyingly precocious four year old. What examples of unsurpassed mental genius have you experienced?"""""""

Whatching a program about beluga caviar,
my wife expressed surprise it comes from sturgeon. She thought it was whale eggs.

the whole marketing campain does hint at that though.
And some mammals do lay eggs.
Besides, salmon roe is far superior to "caviar".

Yes, some mammals do lay eggs,
but my wife is fully aware of what the monotremes are, and the fact that they are not whales.
