mens missing socks

At last someone has had the wisdom (cough, cough), to calculate that in a mans lifetime he will spend a month looking for his socks!! Have scientists really got nothing better to do or is this vital information that we need to know. Don't know about you but if it wasn't for me my Old Man wouldn't have socks, pants, t-shirts, trousers, keys, money, phone- oh or his marbles. Is it just my Old Man or are there others out there like mine too?
