Pejman’s quote of the day:

Every man serves a useful purpose: A miser, for example, makes a wonderful ancestor.
–Laurence J. Peter

I assume this is the same Peter who gave us the Peter Principle, that everyone gets promoted above their level of competence, and the corollary, that all useful work is done by those who have not, as yet, been so promoted. Helps to explain a lot of the world that one.
