What happens if it's not an iPhone? Mystery solved!

The tautology bug has bitten the folks in Cupertino, California, and Apple is placing big bets on a nine-word tautology: "If it's not an iPhone, it's not an iPhone."

This is how they appeal to all those highly discriminating, hip people they respect so much--their customers! Or maybe, they just caved, and decided to 'fess up that it's been more of a status symbol all along. One thing's for sure--we'll never know what they meant. Because, you know...it's tautological.

Day Two of Truisms and Tautologies Monthly!

Gov. Andrew Cuomo signed the "Enough Is Enough" measure into law Tuesday at New York University at an event that included U.S. Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Congressman Charles Rangel.  --CBS New York / AP

Today, with great pride, New York passed legislation titled "Enough is Enough."  In follow-up interviews:

It's been a long-standing ambition of my public service career to answer the burning question, "what is enough?" I'm gratified today to say "mission accomplished!"  I just wish I had an aircraft carrier and a banner. 
                                                                                -- Governor Mario Cuomo

We hear "no means no," "enough is enough," "it is what it is," all these confusing statements. At last, people will begin doing the right thing, because we told them so. (waves hand)
                                                              --House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi

There is no reason a young person should have to pay for college education. Enough is enough!
                                                             --Representative Charles Rangel

PS: The follow-up interviews are fictitious.

Harold Fethe is reserving this space for possible use as an ironical newsletter. Its premise will be to cover statements by world leaders and other important people that are entertaining because they are meaningless due to circularity.
