Now I've Heard Everything...Part MCCXXIX
Today I deleated a bunch of spam. I am always gratified by the windows that spam opens for me. (Well, how else would I know "Louis Vuitton Handbags Can be Yours for 100% Off", "Erections are Still Possible", or that "Times are Tough. Don't Pray for Retail Software"?)
However, a phrase in the subject line of one of them really caught my eye. It included the term "Braille Playboy". Never one to give up an opportunity to do some basic science, I decided to pursue this and learned...that there really is a braille Playboy.
It seems to me that a braille Playboy would represent a real form of cruel and unusual torture. And what is the market here? You figure that maybe 500,000 to 1,000,000 American men might be blind. Following trends for men in general, only 1 in 250,000 of those blind men might be interested in Playboy for the interview with Bill Moyers and not Miss April's, ummm, assets.
These the the logs of your captain here on the USS Clueless. Over and out.
