I was walking through a Sharper Image store one time and I came across this "count down clock" that would tick off the seconds until you were gonna die. You would tell it some things about your age, weight, sex, exercise habits, etc., and then it would sit there and tell you how long you had.

I looked at that thing, and I thought, "Who the Hell would want to know? What a morbid thing to have around." And I can't say that I've ever actually seen one of these things in anyone's home or office. So maybe nobody ever bought one.

"So maybe nobody ever bought one"

They may have just gone online instead:

Anyway, decent piece by Cavuto, who seems much more real than most talking heads.
