But Still …

If I were on trial, I’d defend myself to the hilt. I understand that. But still, former CEO Bernie Ebbers’ defense at his WorldCom $10 Billion+ fraud trial is, well, trying:

I got lousy grades in school.
I don’t understand technology.
I don’t understand finance.
I don’t understand accounting.

Ye gads.

Predictable, I suppose.
Pathetic … undoubtedly.
Credible?
You be the judge, or jury.
