It's like the story of two men walking thru the woods when they come across a bear. When one man bends down and tightens the laces of his shoes, the other looks at him and exclaims in a puzzled voice "You don't think you can outrun a bear, do you!?!?". The first man replies "No, but I bet I can out run you." Along these lines, I saw a commercial last night during the Olympics that gave me a good chuckle. I can't remember the company's name, but it dealt with network security. It started with a scene of an automotive factory in the US where the robot arms start going crazy, swinging around and such. I shows the techs in the booth frantically trying to figure out what's going wrong. Then the arm which paints the cars coming down the assembly line starts writing letters on the sides of the cars. The techs start to spell it out: "S..U..K..I". The scene cuts to a home of an Asian family with a cute, innocent looking little girl sitting in front of a computer. Her mother sticks her head around the corner and says "It's time for bed, Suki." Just had to chuckle.
