Never try to guess.
Toast until it smokes and then
Twenty seconds less. -- Piet Hein

From: robert@rockmore.com (Robert D. Poor)
I think it was Piet Hein who also wrote something like:
Since everything's either
Concave or convex
All that you dream
Is something with sex.
This poem made quite an impression on me when I stumbled across it at age 10.
Perhaps its a bad sign, but I now prefer the toast poem.
