Why do smart people do stupid things?..
Now, without wanting to blow my own trumpet... I have an IQ of 131, i also have a degree in physics...
So why is it that when installing HIDs on the Daytona, after checking not once, not twice, but three times, I manage to drill the hole in the headlamp covers on the right when it should be on the left?

Re: Why do smart people do stupid things?..
I'm not too bad in the brain dept, dunno what my IQ is, but I is blonde so daft by default
I've also got far more common sense than the one sitting next to me with the degree

Everyone does silly stupid things from time to time, but common sense is not common!!
