  It appears that some MailBits.com readers share a
common hobby: Idiot Sightings. Here are some recent
sightings:

Sighting #1: I was at the airport, checking in at the
gate, when the airport employee asked "Has anyone put
anything in your baggage without your knowledge?" I
said, "If it was without my knowledge, how would I
know?" He smiled and nodded knowingly, "That's why we
ask."

Sighting #2: The stoplight on the corner buzzes when
it is safe to cross the street.  I was crossing with
an intellectually challenged co-worker of mine, when
she asked if I knew what the buzzer was for. I
explained that it signals to blind people when the
light is red. She responded, appalled, "What on earth
are blind people doing driving?"

Sighting #3: I worked with an individual who plugged
her power strip back into itself and for the life of
her could not understand why her system would not turn
on.

Sighting #4 (a rare "double sighting"): A friend had a
brilliant idea for saving disk space. He thought if he
put all his Microsoft Word documents into a tiny
font they'd take up less room. When he told me I was
with another friend. She thought it was a good idea
too.

Sighting #5 (from Tech Support):
Tech Support: "How much free space do you have on your
hard drive?"
Individual: "Well, my wife likes to get up there on
that Internet, and she downloaded ten hours of free
space. Is that enough?"

Sighting #6 (from Tech Support):
Individual: Now what do I do?
Tech Support: What is the prompt on the screen?
Individual: It's asking for "Enter Your Last Name."
Tech Support:  Okay, so type in your last name.
Individual: How do you spell that?
