So, um...am I the only one who mixes up Warren Buffett and Jimmy Buffett?

*crickets*

Okay, never mind. Move along...

self-mockery, question of the day

One is a pirate, the other made a lot of money appealing to people's desire for the pirate lifestyle.

You're totally right! They're so much alike that my confusion makes some logical sense! Ahem.

I need a Stupid Brain icon.

Okay, it's GREAT that you used that phrasing, because the tentative title for this post (before I came up with the mashup) was "Stupid brain."

You are not alone! Scott Adams (the Dilbert cartoonist) mentions Warren Buffett on his blog every so often, and I always have a moment of mental disconnect, then, "...No. Wait. The other one." Every single time.

I always have to stop and think about it for a second. It was ages before I came to terms with the fact that they're not even related, let alone the same person.

Though how cool would it be if they actually were one person ala Hannah Montana?

The world would be an even weirder place if that were the case.
