I’m a sucker for lists. And today, thanks to some odd cosmic convergence, I came across a pair I really like.

The first is Stanford professor and author of The No Asshole Rule (great book, btw) Bob Sutton’s “15 Things I Believe.” (You’ll find it looking at the left-hand column of this link and scrolling down a bit.)

The second is columnist Dave Barry’s “14 Things That It Took Me Over 50 Years To Learn.”

Both verge on brilliance.

UPDATE (6/28/07; 9:32pm EDT): Like the lady in the orthopedic shoes, I stand corrected. The list that I attributed to Barry isn’t his exactly. It’s a rehash of things he kinda, sorta once said. The full explanation is here. Thanks to Karen Janowski for setting me straight.
