Have you ever received a phone call the minute you sat down on the toilet? Has it ever started raining on the day you washed your car?

Here, then, is the first compilation in book form of the wit and widsom of our most delightfully demented technologists, bureaucrats, humanists, and anti-social observers, prepared and presented with the purpose of providing us all with a little Karmic Relief.
