Notes from Howard's Sabbatical from Working. The name comes from a 1998 lunch conversation. Someone asked if everything man knew was on the web. I answered "no" and off the top of my head said "Fidel Castro's favorite color". About every 6-12 months I've searched for this. It doesn't show up in the first 50 Google results (this blog is finally first for that search), AskJeeves says it's: red.
I’m very tempted to ask these questions around MIT and Harvard. Perhaps if I run across any Chinese exchange students I can throw in “describe the what happened in Tiananmen Square in 1989.”
So, there's no escape. "pray that there's intelligent life somewhere out in space, 'cause there's bugger all down here on Earth."
