Something I would never have guessed

That John Kerry has a funny wit...check this out:

Q: How often do you Google yourself?
A: When I was growing up, the priests taught us to think that was a sin.

Not sure why Kerry thinks googling himself will be a self-gratifying experience in any way, but its a funny answer nevertheless.

Reminds me of the first boss I worked for - a very intelligent man himself, but with little patience for the dogmas and protocols of institutionalized intelligentsia. With reference to PhDs who would prefix their names with 'doctor' in first person, he would use the term "intellectual masturbators"...
