Why is number 1 "dumb?" It was a planned, and successful scheme.

Re: #78 - Who can walk at 12.5 MPH? Heck yes, I'd get one if I had $3k to burn.

I'm a Windows user, but that Ballmer video clip truly is disturbing.

80. Sept. 11 Inc., "I'm Almost -- Almost -- Too Stupid to Ridicule" Division: At 2:40 p.m. on Sept. 11, a New Jersey restaurateur named Michael Heiden files a form with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to trademark the words "World Trade Center." Interviewed by the Smoking Gun website, Heiden claims that Disney trademarked the term "Pearl Harbor" before producing that film [it did not], and that, "if they ever do make a movie [about the terrorist attacks], I'd like to get involved profit from those who died on 9-11.

It's the only reason I can think of.

This is cool but it's too focused on modern blunders. Can't really be the 101 worst blunders without the Edsel and New Coke (and plenty of others from before 1995).

22. Sept. 11 Inc., Clueless as to the Content of Our Content Division: In the wake of the terrorist attacks, employees of radio conglomerate Clear Channel (CCU) begin circulating a list of songs inappropriate for airplay. Among the songs is "Imagine," John Lennon's stirring plea for world peace, which is later performed by Neil Young during the "America: A Tribute to Heroes" fund-raiser for victims of the attacks. Clear Channel's management denies issuing or endorsing the list.

I'd argue with this one. Lennon's song is more a paen to nihilism.
