Digital files are coded in Binary language, which is all 1's and 0's. He's so good, his contain 2's.

My personal fave:

Ken Rockwell isn't the Chuck Norris of photography; Chuck Norris is the Ken Rockwell of martial arts.

His site is very readable, though. It's not like reading a technical manual or sitting down in a classroom. Sometimes he has horrible grammar, spelling and punctuation. That's what makes him Ken, though. I don't think the site would be the same without the colour. :)

For more geek (lack of) cred, I've always liked the following riddle:

How many people can read hex if only you and dead people can read hex ?

While we are at it, happy Pi day
