Apparently, the iPhone is "just released" according to this pyramid scheme site.

So true this is. Bill Engval's here's your sign should be made a law. Whenever someone does something deserving of one, they must wear it for the rest of their lives.

Heh... StretchR is right. I use that at work, but I don't say "here's your sign." I do reply with witty remarks to stupid questions, though. For some reason people don't often ask me questions anymore... ;)

Some people will do anything for a buck! I like the idea of making them wear a sign. Sounds like a good law...would prevent so many gullible people from being sucked into their schemes.

I saw the same thing before the Wii came out. I would get pop-up ads for a free Wii for doing a survey.
