Sir Arthur Conan Doyle once sent telegrams to 20 of his friends
stating, "All is discovered, you must leave the country."  Twelve of
them left by the next boat.

Lyndon Johnson was asked how he managed to achieve immediate intimacy
with so many voters.  He explained, "I just go up to them and ask,
'How's that back of yours doing?'"
