When Smart Men Make Silly Mistakes. by Sagamite(m): 11:22am On Apr 13, 2010
I am curious to know of examples of when people one thinks (or expect) to be smart, make a decision that is nothing short of silly.

I am not talking about unavoidable mistakes. I am talking about something that is obviously just plain right dumb.

Can you give any examples that come to mind?
