A Very Sad Book Title

"Managing Catastrophic Loss of Sensitive Data"

When I hear this title and think of who would buy the book, I imagine some guy with tear-stained cheeks, who has only recently arrived at the final stage of grief (acceptance), sheepishly approaching the checkout at the bookstore, getting ready to say, “It’s for a friend” to the cashier.

I feel for this guy.

Showed this to my colleague Hari, who said:

"The book is actually hollowed out, and has a gun with one bullet..."

(I would have claimed that as my own, only he published it under Creative Commons via IM...)
