That was the first time I ever realized that the "IN BED" trick seems to be generational -- all the younger people automatically mentally added it, and all the older people couldn't understand why we were laughing so hard at some of the fortunes.

LOL, as proof that we were all real nerds, none of us thought of it at the time. But I guess we really didn't need to... ;-)
